The System Center consultants at MCC have a long history with Microsoft System Center
Operations Manager 2007, and its predecessor, Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM)
2005. Not only do our Microsoft Operations Manager consultants manage MOM
for many of our clients, but it is a vital part of our own infrastructure.
Microsoft System Center Operations Manager is a software solution to meet the need
for end-to-end service monitoring in the enterprise IT environment. SCOM 2007
provides an easy-to-use monitoring environment that monitors thousands of servers,
applications, and clients to provide a comprehensive view of the health of an organization’s
IT environment. This view of service health is key to a rapid, agile response to
events that may impact the normal running of business and ultimately cost an enterprise
money.

System Center Operations Manager 2007 is the third generation of Microsoft’s award-winning
monitoring solution. Formerly is was Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM).
Microsoft enhanced the already capable Operations Manager solution by designing
Operations Manager 2007 around these three pillars:
- End-to-end service management
- Best-of-breed for Windows
- Increased Efficiency and Control
Within these pillars, Microsoft has leveraged the best of existing technologies,
such as Windows and Microsoft SQL Server, and embraced new technologies such as
the System Definition Model (SDM) and Windows PowerShell scripting engine. System
Center Operations Manager 2007 has answered the needs of our customers and the market. Feel

Operations Manager integration with Performance and Resource
Optimization (PRO)
Performance and Resource Optimization—known simply as PRO—is a new feature in Virtual
Machine Manager 2008 that supports workload and application-aware resource optimization
within a virtualized environment. Based on performance and health data provided
by PRO-enabled management packs in System Center Operations Manager 2007, PRO can
automatically or manually implement PRO tips, recommendations for minimizing downtime
and accelerating time to resolution. We can help you learn more about PRO MOM integration.
If your IT environment is already monitored with MOM 2005, why should you upgrade?
Are your administrators receiving the right alerts and the depth of knowledge about
those events to solve problems quickly? Does your monitoring tool allow you to see
your IT environment from the business perspective (that is, the services you offer
end users)? Do you struggle with collecting audit information for compliance and
security needs? Do you want better visibility into your client systems and the experience
your end users have interacting with your IT services? If you answered yes to any
of these questions, the SCOM Outsourcing Team at MCC can expertly deploy an Operations
Manager 2007 solution for your business to build on the investment you have
already made.
