New Relic vs Tanium

• Monitor traffic rates and server usage on real time
• Helps engineers to dive deep into an issue and guides them to the root cause
• Provides high-level system health status of different components (ie. Server capacity, RPM, page load time, error rate..)
• Near real time reporting
• Links with deployment so easy to understand if an issue has occurred after a particular release

• Tanium helps in identifying a list of infected machines with any vulnerabilities. For example if we create a package with list of Windows vulnerabilities, it will push the package through its sensors to all the nodes, and trace out the infected machines in our organization.
• It helps in adding IOC's which helps us in track down the hashes or shah files existing with that IOC 's machines.
• The most impressive thing about Tanium is that it can quarantine the machine of our choice without connecting to the network, which really helps a lot of times in containment of any infected machines.

• It would be helpful if use cases for particularly a Windows installation, were provided to help determine which set of configuration files would be the one a group would want to control. I.e. potentially with a department trying to do DevOps, it's difficult to determine which team needs to have responsibility for what at times. The reason I mention this, is New Relic seems to in many ways be a tool that's useful for DevOps-related processes and staff.
• On the main New Relic One site, sometimes a refresh option is available for new features. It would be helpful to see what the new features are in advance before trying this out. Particularly if doing a demo or a working season with another team.
• I'm not aware of a page or specific site which describes/summarizes all of the different NR Products and their features.
• Sometimes it's tricky to determine which product to use to accomplish a task.

• One issue is its ring topology, as the data is stored in central hubs and pushed through its peer nodes. If the central hub fails, then the associated node will also result in failure.
• Another problem is that all Tanium management is on premises requiring the customer to maintain it. If we want ask any help from Tanium support we always get a response like "you are maintaining it yourselves and it's your responsibility.
• The Tanium User Interface could be improved a bit as, although the tool is rich in performance, a more impressive UI might really attract new customers.

• Adding the IOC 's tracing infected machines, and removing unwanted applications quickly.
• Quarantine the infected machine from the network in order to prevent it from causing damage or infecting other machines.
• The user interface could be improved.
