Intermapper Product Changes and FAQ

Intermapper is an IT infrastructure monitoring and intelligence product portfolio designed to help organizations see what's happening across their network and server infrastructure, understand why performance issues occur, and use data to plan for future needs.

The Intermapper portfolio includes Intermapper Network & Server Monitoring, Intermapper Advanced Reporting, Intermapper Flows Insight, Intermapper Server Insight, and Intermapper Foresight.

Yes. Network and server monitoring remains at the center of Intermapper.

Intermapper Network & Server Monitoring provides live network mapping, device and server monitoring, alerts, outage detection, and visibility into where infrastructure issues are occurring. The broader Intermapper portfolio adds reporting, traffic analysis, server performance intelligence, analytics, forecasting, and capacity planning around that monitoring foundation.

The Intermapper portfolio has expanded to address more of the infrastructure management process.

Traditional monitoring helps teams identify what is happening. The expanded portfolio provides additional tools to investigate why performance changed, communicate infrastructure health, analyze deeper server and traffic data, identify risk, and plan future capacity.

This is represented by the new Intermapper direction: See What's Happening. Understand Why. Plan What's Next.

Capabilities associated with Vityl Capacity Management are now represented within the broader Intermapper solution rather than existing as a separate, isolated capacity-management category.

VCM historically provided capabilities including infrastructure performance data collection, workload analysis, reporting, risk identification, resource optimization, and capacity planning.

Within the current Intermapper portfolio, Intermapper Server Insight addresses deeper server, platform, workload, and performance information. Intermapper Foresight addresses trends, correlations, risk, forecasting, and capacity planning. And Intermapper Advanced Reporting addresses structured reporting and distribution.

No. It is more accurate to view the change as a reorganization of capabilities within the broader Intermapper portfolio rather than a one-to-one product rename.

Foresight handles many of the forward-looking analytical concepts associated with capacity management, including risk awareness, trends, forecasting, and future capacity planning. Other capabilities previously associated with broader performance and capacity management workflows align with Server Insight and Advanced Reporting.

Capabilities associated with Automated Analytics for Intermapper now align with different parts of the expanded Intermapper portfolio.

Automated Analytics previously included forecasting, anomaly analysis, reporting, dashboards, scheduling, and automated distribution.

Advanced Reporting focuses on structured and automated reporting, while Foresight focuses on KPIs, correlations, trends, risk, and forecasting.

Intermapper Network & Server Monitoring is the core monitoring product within the Intermapper portfolio. It monitors networks, servers, devices, applications, and other IP-enabled infrastructure while providing live maps, proactive alerts, status information, and outage visibility.

Intermapper Advanced Reporting turns infrastructure monitoring information into structured operational, executive, SLA, service-performance, and custom reports. It also supports automated report distribution to reduce manual reporting work.

Intermapper Flows Insight is the traffic and bandwidth analysis component of the Intermapper portfolio. It helps teams analyze NetFlow and other flow data to understand bandwidth utilization, traffic patterns, top talkers, applications, and network communication behavior.

Flows Insight continues the Intermapper focus on traffic-flow and bandwidth analysis within the new product structure. The updated name makes its role within the broader Intermapper portfolio clearer.

Intermapper Server Insight provides deeper server, platform, workload, and source-level performance information. It is designed for teams that need more detailed performance context than basic server availability monitoring provides.

Intermapper Foresight provides forward-looking infrastructure intelligence using KPIs, correlation analysis, trends, risk information, and forecasts. It is designed to help organizations identify emerging risks, forecast capacity needs, prioritize work, and plan infrastructure decisions before constraints become incidents.

Server Insight focuses primarily on collecting and understanding deeper server, platform, workload, and performance data.

Foresight uses operational information for higher-level analysis, including correlations, trends, health and risk KPIs, forecasting, and capacity planning.

Put simply, Server Insight helps provide deeper performance context, while Foresight helps determine what patterns in infrastructure data could mean for the future.

Advanced Reporting is primarily designed to organize, communicate, schedule, and distribute infrastructure information through reports.

Foresight is primarily designed to analyze infrastructure information for risk, correlations, trends, forecasting, and planning.

No. Organizations can select Intermapper capabilities based on what they need to monitor, investigate, report on, or plan.

Intermapper Network & Server Monitoring provides the core network and server monitoring foundation. Additional Intermapper products extend visibility into reporting, network traffic, deeper server performance, and forward-looking infrastructure analysis.

Use Intermapper Network & Server Monitoring when you need live network maps, infrastructure health, outage detection, and alerts.

Use Intermapper Advanced Reporting when you need operational, executive, SLA, or automated reporting.

Use Intermapper Flows Insight when you need to understand bandwidth use and network traffic.

Use Intermapper Server Insight when you need deeper server, platform, workload, or performance data.

Use Intermapper Foresight when you need trends, risk analysis, forecasting, or capacity planning.
