Overall Satisfaction with IBM Turbonomic

IBM Turbonomic was part of our wide range of Observability and AIOPS solution. We offered and implemented this solution for our end clients to monitor and observe their IT infrastructure, Applications and event management purpose.
Due to its cloud hosting solution it was one of our favorite solution even before it was acquired by IBM.
  • Application Resource Management
  • Infrastructure Monitoring
  • AIOps capabilities
  • Advanced and Customized Algorithm for Prediction
  • Topology Building between Networks and Apps
  • Event Management/Correlation
  • Improved Observability into Applications and Resources
  • No Hassle to manage infrastructure to run the solution being the SaaS
  • Extended support on large Bids
IBM Turbonomic has grown to a respectable level now in the market and after associating with IBM its value has been increased in terms of trust and results. From technical point of view this is a potential solution and provide almost all similar features like its competitors. However it still need improvement and integrations with other IBM products to make it more impactful.

Ofcourse, IBM Turbonomic has not only provided visibility into the Application Performance or their availability but also insights about related databases, servers, micro services, 3rd party dependent nodes etc. Due to its unified dashboard and events correlation capability our support teams are able to detect the problems and resolve them before large impact.
Unifying Infrastructure and Applications team is still a challenge for many IT organizations and Business Companies due to the fact that both the teams have different goals. However the gap of visibility between application and infrastrcuture fault has been reduced to some extent as IBM Turbonomic provides provides visibility not only in Application Performance but infrastructure as well so the Apps team are now aware whether the bottleneck is.
If I talk about in terms of Dollars then there is no major difference because even when we have now less dependency on physical DC or their infrastructure but still we need skilled resources to manage the applications, like architects, developers and admins. But the headache we had previously to manage on-prem infrastructure, and maintain the databases on regular basis has been reduced to almost zero.
If you are looking for cloud based (i.e. SaaS) observability with some little AIOps capabilities such as Anomaly detection, trending, forecasting then IBM Turbonomic is the ideal solution. If you are looking for importing metrics via telemetry, or ingesting data from 3rd party solution or even directly from end devices then it may be your 1st choice.
