Over 60% of downtime, security, and performance issues are due to configuration errors, and virtualization is only going to drive that percentage up. To ensure proper virtual datacenter operation, it is critical to have a holistically configured datacenter based on industry best practices.

Combining empirical data from our IP network probes with configuration information obtained from other individual datacenter elements, RDA constructs a unified view of how the entire datacenter works across different administrative domains. Ensuring that administrators can quickly see the relevant information, RDA "knowledge packs" apply industry defined best-practices to highlight latent problems and overt mis-configuration in a virtualized datacenter that can impact security, reliability, or even downtime.
