Get Control of Log Management cost, complexity and scalability Now! Let’s be realistic - although the necessity and
value of enterprise Log management software is unquestioned,
there are big challenges at scale. Large deployments often mean linear scale of complexity, rigidity and cost.
The log software vendors emphasize the value of big-data in a single searchable repository but provide little
guidance on how to architect or optimize the infrastructure to support it. Without this, operations staffs are
forced to over provision and that over time shatters budgets with more volume licensing, hardware, and
systems administration work. Some have looked to the public clouds or vendor’s own hosted solutions but at
scale it becomes clear in just months that those approaches are a negative sum game. Sound familiar?
Single Vendor
· Hardware
· Virtualization / Cloud
· Log Analysis tools
· Application Automation
· Green-Field or Legacy
Sapien Networks has solved the problem with its multi-disciplined DevOps team* that has engineered a prebuilt Private Cloud Log Management Platform (PCLMP) supporting best-in-breed Log management software.
This powerful high-performance platform was developed to be easy-to-deploy, simple to manage, and highly
extensible while mitigating complexity. PCLMP is also designed to provision your log applications as-a-service
for elastic demands and workloads – which means rapid self-service provisioning, automation and other
service provider class features. We did this by many man-months of work and focus to get the platform just
right: a finely tuned balance of software and hardware for performance and scale.
Fully Automated Across
· Infrastructure
· Application spin up
· Configuration
· Auto-Scale
In short, Sapien Networks PCLMP allows you to finally get the value and insights from logs that your vendor
promised - without breaking your budget. Coupled with our expert DevOps Services team and CI/CD methods,
the total solution can help your business to stay ahead of the exploding Log Management and Big Data curve.
Platform Description: PCLMP is a full-stack solution that features an open architecture designed with service provider class features and runs on
commodity hardware. This includes an OpenStack® base system with resource orchestration and automation of virtualized compute nodes for heavy
workloads and Docker® containers for light-weight ones. Software defined storage is used for a central data repository or best-in-class storage can be
substituted. Real-time telemetry on the platform ensures performance optimization and continuous improvement. The platform is offered in an on-premises
deployment and is extensible to the public cloud. PCLMP also provides for elasticity (for example to scale up for an urgent security breach and then to easily
scale back to support normalized operations). * The DevOps Team Private Cloud Log Management Platform Our multi-disciplined team is
comprised of seasoned network,
storage, compute, virtualization,
log-management, and application
automation professionals with
experience across technologies
such as Vblock, FlexPod, VMware,
Openstack, Splunk, ELK,
Puppet/Chef/Ansible, and DockerKubernetes/Mesos.
Collectively our team has worked
out the kinks within and across
disciplines to produce an
optimized, high performance and
production ready solution.
The value to you is a flexible and
customizable solution deployable
in either a green field project or
integrated into a legacy system.
