Modern companies face increasing challenges to keep their IT environments under control, as infrastructure becomes more complex and the volume of data and assets grows exponentially. The pressure to improve visibility, guarantee security and optimize resource management is growing, especially in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Here are some of the main customer needs and how BMC Helix Discovery can provide an effective solution:
1. Complete and up-to-date visibility of IT infrastructure
With distributed infrastructures and the use of different platforms, it is difficult for companies to maintain an up-to-date mapping of IT assets. This lack of visibility can often lead to operational inefficiency, audit failures and even security breaches.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
BMC Helix Discovery offers automated and continuous discovery of the entire IT infrastructure, accurately mapping physical assets, virtual assets and cloud services. This provides a clear, real-time view of all components, helping to identify critical dependencies and create detailed topology maps, essential for the effective management of any IT environment.
2. Reducing Security Risks
In a scenario of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, IT infrastructure security is a priority concern for any organization. The inability to quickly identify which devices and systems are connected to the network can create significant vulnerabilities.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
By offering a complete and continuous view of all assets, BMC Helix Discovery helps detect security vulnerabilities related to unmonitored or outdated systems. This allows IT teams to quickly identify critical risk points, take proactive measures and ensure compliance with security and regulatory standards.
3. Cost and Resource Optimization
Companies that have a limited view of their assets often end up investing in resources that are not fully optimized. This can include anything from idle servers to underused software licenses, leading to unnecessary costs.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
BMC Helix Discovery allows companies to optimize their IT assets by identifying redundant or underused systems. This makes it possible to make adjustments that ensure a better allocation of resources, avoiding unnecessary expenses and improving operational efficiency.
4. Supporting Digital Transformation Strategies
As organizations adopt new technologies and move forward with their digital transformation initiatives, having a clear vision of the entire infrastructure is essential to the success of these projects. Without a complete mapping, these initiatives can fail due to a lack of alignment between IT teams and business goals.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
The BMC Helix Discovery solution provides strategic insights for IT teams, allowing them to align their digital transformation initiatives with the real needs of the IT environment. This ensures that the transition to new technologies, such as hybrid cloud environments, is made seamlessly and securely.
5. Agile Incident Resolution
When problems occur in the IT infrastructure, finding the root cause can be like looking for a needle in a haystack, especially in large, distributed environments. Support teams often waste valuable time trying to locate the source of problems.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
With automated mapping of dependencies between applications, services and infrastructure, BMC Helix Discovery helps IT teams quickly identify the causes of incidents. This results in a significant reduction in response time and problem resolution, minimizing the impact on the business.
6. Easier Management of Complex Environments
The complexity of managing multicloud, hybrid and data center environments requires tools capable of providing accurate information, simplifying IT governance.
How BMC Helix Discovery helps:
BMC Helix Discovery is able to map multi-cloud and hybrid environments, giving IT teams the ability to manage these ecosystems in a centralized way. This facilitates governance, reduces the risk of integration failures and ensures that all assets are working optimally and securely.
