PR Newswire (US)
SOMERSET, N.J., Dec. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Raritan, a leading provider
of solutions for managing IT infrastructure, announced today that
Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE:IM) will start this month distributing
Raritan's easy-to-use CommandCenter(R) NOC (CC-NOC) availability
and performance monitoring appliance for midsize IT organizations.
The channel-ready CC-NOC appliance will help Ingram Micro's
solution providers grow their product and service revenue in three
ways: * By offering their customers a complete, easy-to-install
solution designed specifically for midsize organizations looking
for integrated service and security monitoring capabilities at an
affordable price. * By helping resellers support and engage
customers with capabilities such as monitoring, remediation,
reporting and auditing services, intrusion detection and Windows
Vista compatibility analysis. * By enabling Ingram Micro resellers
to develop managed service businesses that deliver recurring
revenue. Ingram Micro, a long time Raritan channel partner, has
carried the vendor's KVM (Keyboard, Video and Mouse), serial
console and remote power control products for years, and will sell
CC-NOC throughout North America. CC-NOC helps customers improve
service uptime and productivity. Through a comprehensive dashboard
accessed through any Internet browser, the solution provides
availability and performance notifications on network, systems and
applications. In addition, it identifies and tracks hardware and
software assets, and monitors for security vulnerabilities and
intrusions. When used with Raritan's out-of-band access and control
solutions, most server problem remediation can be performed without
going on site. "Distributing CommandCenter NOC through Ingram Micro
will give solution providers the added value of our combined
expertise and sales and support programs," said Gary Marks,
Raritan's vice president, Sales. "We look forward to working with
Ingram Micro in helping VARs expand their businesses with new
offerings. We already have implemented a number of joint programs
to help solution providers build their practices; including
training Ingram Micro's networking team." "Ingram Micro and Raritan
share a common vision to empower solution providers with the
technology and services that midsize businesses are demanding
today," said Ken Bast, vice president, vendor management, Ingram
Micro. "CommandCenter NOC is a solid solution for midsize
organizations, and we look forward to being able to offer our VARs
these new services." About CC-NOC CC-NOC is simple to install,
learn and use, so that IT organizations -- without a large
investment in time and resources -- are able to monitor their IT
infrastructure and identify problems before they impact service. It
employs autonomic computing techniques to address and fix certain
problems automatically. If there is a problem, CC-NOC sends an
email alert notification, which includes an embedded link to the
server or device that has the problem; so that an administrator can
access the device -- either in-band or out-of-band -- in a single
click. To learn more about CC-NOC, please go to
