Reston, VA and Houston, TX – – Netuitive, a next-generation infrastructure performance management software company and BMC Software [NYSE: BMC], a leader in enterprise management, today announced a new global reseller agreement.

Netuitive Analytics, a patented multi-variable data correlation technology, extends PATROL's management infrastructure to improve service management. The combined offering provides the following:

  • minimizes events which would impact business service by providing early warning using Netuitive's Trusted Alarm™;
  • identifies behavior outside of normal operating ranges through intelligent, enhanced alarms;
  • simplifies the configuration and maintenance of PATROL by using dynamic thresholds and Adaptive Behavior Profiles™; and
  • expedites fault isolation/remediation when problems occur by enabling operators to interpret multiple inputs and pinpoint degrading performance.
