IT teams utilise many tools to gain insight and understanding on how the infrastructure and services that run over them are working, their configuration, and the performance end-users may be experiencing when consuming them. This information is usually spread across several tools, which may be vendor-specific or deployed by individual teams to achieve a specific purpose. Over time, the multitude of monitoring applications can lead to information silos with multiple alert generating sources. These are inefficient to manage and do not have universal knowledge and understanding through the organisation.

When it comes to the network estate, there are specific metrics that must be monitored 24/7. Then some other data values need to reviewed at particular points or under certain conditions. Controlling what data is captured 24/7 can be something that leads to either metrics being unavailable when they are desperately needed or that you feel overwhelmed with the data presented in your monitoring platform.

In this solution brief you will learn how using APIs, NetBrain can be integrated with any of your existing workflows. This integration will allow you to pull the data from SolarWinds Orion directly to a dynamic map from NetBrain in real-time. Moreover, you can use executable Runbooks to automatically visualise and analyse problems detected by SolarWinds Orion to solve network issues faster.
