AdminForce Remote LLC announces the release of its new
web-site/server remote monitor.
Boulder, Colorado — August 16, 2001 —
AdminForce Remote Monitor is a new Linux
product developed to provide IT managers with a broader dimension of
in-depth information for more effective operation of their web site,
network, and related applications.
Announcement of the new product is the latest element in the suite of
remote management tools developed by AdminForce Remote LLC.
It has been designed to meet the challenge of Linux expansion as the
operating system of choice in a growing number of enterprise business
and institutional servers.
Chris Fearnley, president and CTO of AdminForce said "the reports
provided by AdminForce Remote Monitor are
automated with a complete range of critical reports given to a client
at regular intervals".
"The AdminForce suite of remote management tools include
three powerful, sophisticated tools that will provide Linux powered
operations with analytic capabilities which were not previously
available," Fearnley said.
- AdminForce Remote Monitor:
- This is an automatic alert mechanism to warn of potential problems
with server operations. Information is delivered to a client
IT department via e-mail and via a password protected web site.
- With the careful use of AdminForce Remote
Monitor, the down time cost of IT trouble shooting will
be dramatically reduced. Web site speed and accuracy questions
are clearly answered and directional information lessens the IT
dollars spent searching for answers.
- AdminForce Powerwall:
- Current firewall protection is costly and too often provides only a
time-sensitive period of protection. In its purchase price
AdminForce Powerwall includes an
automatic monitoring and upgrade package.
- Linux has not been troubled as yet with viruses as have other
operating systems and their related applications. In fact, the
recent Code Red "worm" did not affect Linux anywhere in the world.
- Frequent virus alerts can be costly and raise client fears
for those engaged in e-business, but the activities of "crackers"
seeking to break into proprietary information of companies pose
a potentially greater threat to a business. Since "crackers"
keep developing new ways to attack, AdminForce
Powerwall is continually upgraded to meet their threats.
- AdminForce Powerwall is available at
several price points which are geared to the individual levels of
corporate network and e-commerce protection required. In every
case, AdminForce Powerwall can provide
a superior level of protection at greater savings when a price
comparison is done with competitor products.
- AdminForce Remote Maintenance Service:
- This service can be used in many instances to reduce on-site IT
personnel costs that are dedicated to fixing operational
problems. The combination of Linux as an operating system
and AdminForce Remote personnel monitoring network
operations can release IT staff to more profitable development
activities. Such an option is more effective than dedicating
time to routine maintenance and fixes that can more easily be
performed by AdminForce Remote staff. This was the first
AdminForce service system developed and has proved to
be a significant cost-cutting tool.
"Contributing to the importance of the release of the new
AdminForce package is its overall economic impact,"
Fearnley said.
The AdminForce products have been designed to provide significant
operational savings to those IT departments who may be investigating
Linux as a tool in future computing operations. Additional savings
can be realized since the acquisition cost is significantly less than
competing products.
AdminForce Remote LLC is an affiliate of LinuxForce
Inc. LinuxForce is the leading Linux consulting firm that
has been deeply involved in migrating networking operations to Linux for
nearly a decade. The experience of LinuxForce has identified
the issues which need to be resolved at the executive management level
of major corporations.
It has been the view of LinuxForce that economic commitment
to outdated operating systems and security issues have been constantly
raised as impediments to a change to Linux.
Fearnley said that "the growing body of industry experience with the
savings found in computing operations using Linux is rapidly overcoming
these areas of concern".
AdminForce Remote LLC was established to develop products
and proceedures that will enable IT departments to make a seamless and
economic change to the Linux operating system.
