2023: Inclusion in the register of domestic software

On May 22, 2023, SMART technologies SOFT introduced the monitoring and management system of ST. Monitor. The product received a certificate of state registration of the computer program (N 2023612370) and is included in the register of domestic software (Entry in the register of 17.05.2023 No. 17618).

ST.Monitor is a client-server system that includes a server core, databases (DB), distributed components of data collection and management tools, as well as a thin web client supported by a web browser. End users interact with the CT.Monitor via a web interface.

System monitoring is based on standard protocols such as SNMP and monitoring software agents (PAMs). The program implements its own protocol for receiving data from the PAM, directing them to the data collection module. ST.Monitor also supports the Zabbix passive agent protocol.

The system implements the Redfish protocol to manage server hardware. Managed servers are registered in the monitoring configuration as objects (along with other monitoring objects). The Redfish protocol can also be used to monitor servers.

The implementation of the ST system. The monitor guarantees customers the following advantages:

• Creation of a corporate automation platform for monitoring the state of various vehicles operated by the user organization;
• Ensuring centralization of monitoring and integration of its data collected by STM at monitoring facilities;
• The formation of a single integrated view of the state of the operating vehicles (IT resources) and the business services supported by them (based on the resource and service model), which reflects the points of view of both engineering personnel and heads of departments using IT services;
• Increase the efficiency and quality of development of control solutions based on monitoring data and reduce the cost of monitoring by centralizing it, integrating data and unifying procedures;
• Unification of monitoring procedures for facilities supported by different departments and services;
• Provides centralized remote management of the IT infrastructure hosted in the data center.

The family of monitoring systems includes a large number of software products. ST.Monitor takes a significant position in this list due to the emphasis not only on monitoring, but also on management, which allows you to reduce operating costs and improve the quality of decisions, - Anton Efremov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of SMART Technologies, assessed the results of the work done.
