Compliance Cost and Complexity Can Be Cut with New Configuration Management Pack
Most IT organizations have developed and documented operational policies but often find them inadequate to manage increasingly complex environments resulting from legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. However, such management is more critical than ever.
To help organizations automate IT processes even as they mitigate compliance risks, the new Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Configuration Management Pack provides an integrated set of tools for discovery, asset tracking, change detection, analytics, and compliance assessment and reporting.
"With its exhaustive coverage for IT components and comprehensive integration with leading IT change management solutions, Oracle Configuration Management Pack not only automates processes and reduces costs, but also improves both compliance and overall IT performance " explains Sudip Datta, director of product management, Oracle.
Broad-Spectrum Discovery and Asset Tracking
The new Configuration Management Pack can automatically discover and track changes, enforce policies, analyze dependencies, and report on a comprehensive range of IT assets, including operating systems, hardware configurations, database configurations, application services, and packaged applications.
IT teams can perform ad hoc, one-to-one, or one-to-many configuration comparisons; schedule comparisons with “gold configurations” or saved baselines; and improve time-to-resolution and root-cause analysis with change history for all targets and parameters.
Configuration Change Console
At the heart of the new management pack is the Configuration Change Console. It provides a single dashboard that provides real-time insight into configuration changes—and automatically flags potential compliance problems. The console helps drive best practices thanks to a rich set of out-of-the-box compliance policies.
"We feel confident that Oracle Configuration Change Console will save our administrator’s time, help us enforce strict change management controls, and reduce our IT operations overhead while increasing the level of service to our business units," says Mervyn Lally, manager, enterprise technology and architecture, Ingersoll-Rand.
