System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) is a Microsoft solution for monitoring the health and performance of IT systems. It provides real-time visibility into the performance and availability of critical applications and infrastructure components, enabling IT teams to proactively detect and resolve issues before they impact end-users.
SCOM can monitor a wide range of IT resources, including Windows and Linux servers, network devices, applications, and virtual environments. It provides a centralized console for managing alerts, performance data, and reports, as well as integrated tools for troubleshooting and automation.
To use SCOM, you need to install the management server, which acts as the central repository for monitoring data, and the agents, which run on the monitored systems and collect data. You can also use SCOM gateways to monitor resources that are located in untrusted domains or workgroup environments.
Overall, SCOM is a powerful solution for IT operations management that can help organizations ensure the availability and performance of their IT systems.
