Business Availability Center (BAC) provides an interactive digital cockpit that reveals vital business availability information in real time to help prioritize IT operations and maximize business results.

Maximize Systems Availability

BAC can continuously monitor the availability of more than 40 aspects of the infrastructure, from inside and outside the firewall, and send alerts when problems are detected. As a result, you can proactively identify and resolve server performance problems to ensure 24x7 uptime of your systems.

Enable User-Centric Service Level Management

Using performance statistics provided by BAC, you can define your service level agreements based on the actual experience delivered to your end users. In addition, you can validate these SLAs and demonstrate that your system performance requirements have been met.

Receive Early Warning of Performance and Availability Issues

BAC proactively monitors your site to ensure that it is performing to expected service levels. If there are any problems, alerts will be sent immediately so you will know about performance problems before your customers do.

Speed Time to Resolution

BAC correlates end-user performance issues with their root cause in the infrastructure, so that operations groups can resolve problems efficiently.

Access a Global Monitoring Infrastructure

Organizations using in-house monitoring products can access BAC's global monitoring infrastructure to obtain performance data from geographically remote areas. With BAC's extensive Point of Presence (POP) coverage, IT groups gain insight into the end-user experience from both inside and outside the firewall - all from a single source.

Gain 24x7 Access to Monitoring Expertise

HP offers you round-the-clock technical support from their application management experts, along with options for remote monitoring management, problem diagnosis and remediation. By leveraging their expertise, you can focus on your core competency.

Customize BAC Solutions to Meet Your Application Management Needs

Because all BAC components are integrated into a single console, you can easily grow your performance management solution as your performance management needs change. In addition, BAC offers you the flexibility to choose from products for an in-house implementation, a fully hosted monitoring solution or a hybrid of in-house and hosted solutions.

Leverage Your Investment in HP's Testing Tools

BAC uses the same technology as HP's load testing tool - LoadRunner. You can save valuable time and resources by leveraging the scripts used in pre-deployment testing to monitor your Web site in production. By aligning your pre- and post-development application management efforts, you get an even better ROI for HP solutions.
