CenturyLink and Centerity Systems have partnered to bring Centerity Monitor to CenturyLink customers via a trial offer which initially targets real-time IT monitoring of Linux and Windows servers for performance and availability.
Centerity Systems is offering a subset of its unified IT monitoring platform as part of a no charge, 30 day, one-time trial program for Linux and Windows servers (up to 10 metrics per host) within CenturyLink’s Cloud. Through this unique offer, users will have access to the Centerity Monitor Dashboard, which provides key metrics, summary views of real-time system health and availability, host and service group status and event status as well as access to all Centerity Monitor reports such as system utilization, usage summary, uptime, trends, and history.
“This trial offer is just the beginning,” says Marty Pejko, COO of Centerity Systems. “While this offer initially focuses on Linux and Windows services, Centerity is truly an end-to-end IT Monitoring platform providing business intelligence, value and cross domain analytics to the entire organization at all levels whether to the executive, manager or administrator. We intend to roll out the entire platform on CenturyLink Cloud as CenturyLink and Centerity build our advanced offerings together."
