Sakura Information Systems’ virtualization hosting service is based on “partitioning” a virtual machine for each communication infrastructure.

The service provider is not involved in the network design or operation method of the usage environment; users can freely design networks by placing them on the Internet or building closed networks. This type of service is convenient for users but presents a considerable challenge for the provider, as it is difficult to understand the overall picture when a problem occurs in a shared network.

In the event of an overload or an attack, Sakura Information Systems would find itself lacking relevant information on a per-user basis, which made it impossible to resolve issues in the expected quality and timeframe.

These recurring incidents led to a search for tools that would make it possible to visualize events occurring in the company’s network center.
