ManageEngine announced the industry's first enterprise search capability along with other major enhancements are now shipping in its integrated IT management solution, IT360.
The latest version of IT360 makes big strides in little data by giving IT teams the power to search databases of any third-party IT management and business application.
To push the unified IT management envelope even further, ManageEngine has reinforced IT360 with unified discovery, in-depth application monitoring, IP address management, switch-port mapping and project management features.
Unrelenting change in the business landscape is pressuring IT departments to deliver an unmatched user experience to internal and external customers alike. In response, IT teams need a complete, unified view of their network assets and the health of those assets, regardless of how many IT management applications inform that view. IT teams must also have deep, transaction-level insights into the performance of their applications as well as the end user's experience with those applications. Finally, large-scale IT tuning or troubleshooting projects must be efficiently managed to ensure timely, successful completion.
"Now more than ever, IT departments need a single pane of glass that IT360 provides them to manage their entire IT infrastructure," said Sridhar Iyengar, VP of product management at ManageEngine. "The latest version of IT360 builds out our unified IT management vision with industry-leading features such as enterprise search and unified discovery and other functions that reduce operating costs while providing deeper, real-time visibility into the entire IT infrastructure from a single console."
ManageEngine previewed enterprise search in the beta release of IT360 in April 2013. Now, enterprise search is generally available to any IT360 user who wants to take advantage of this industry-first, little data solution. Enterprise search helps IT teams take fast, informed action by providing a unified search console to search for any asset or keyword across third-party vendors' applications - without requiring users to program SQL queries or understand database schemas or structures.
In addition to enterprise search, IT360 now has the following new features:
- Unified discovery lets IT admins discover and configure all devices from a single discovery engine, regardless of the device category. IT360 can automatically scan the network to discover network devices, servers and applications and categorize them based on their configurations. This data can then be populated into IT360's integrated CMDB.
- APM Insight provides in-depth monitoring of business-critical applications running on J2EE, .NET and Ruby on Rails platforms. APM Insight supplements the established end-user experience monitoring in IT360, going beyond parameters such as application and network response times to analyze the transactions and tracing of applications at the code level as well as track applications' user satisfaction levels with Apdex scores.
- IP address management and switch-port mapper helps data center admins keep track of all devices and their related switch port connections. Now, IT360 automatically discovers devices plugged into each switch port. IT360 can also be configured to check the operational status and speed of each port. In addition, IT360 facilitates IP address management by scanning all IP addresses available in a subnet.
- Project management ensures efficient planning and execution of IT projects by letting IT teams manage those projects from inside IT360. The new IT360 project management module lets managers plan and track projects, set milestones and tasks, schedule various events and assign tasks.

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...

Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...
