What is Netuitives Performance Management Database (PMDB)?
To perform its cross-silo analysis, Netuitive collects performance metric data and metadata from many different data sources. It also creates calculated metrics (sums, averages, etc.). This can make the resulting database the most comprehensive repository of performance data in your enterprise – the PMDB. The PMDB is a repository for Netuitive’s real-time analytics but can also be a source of performance data for strategic analysis using tools like SAS, Business Objects, etc. – eliminating the need for multiple integrations from these tools to raw performance data from existing monitoring tools and agents. When configured solely for real-time analytics, the PMDB retains only the analytics calculations necessary and does not store raw metric data for any extended period of time. This minimizes data base storage requirements. The PMDB can also be configured to retain data for a longer time period to support historical reporting and analysis as well.
