Is There an Answer?

All networks can experience performance problems - even failures. Throwing additional hardware at the problem is seldom the solution! Complex network systems and applications must be pro-actively monitored to accurately assess their functionality. Trends and baselines must be established to define both good and bad performance. Consistent maintenance and tuning will keep your systems at peak performance.

So when trouble strikes, where can you turn? Look no further than Niborex Inc. Whether it's an acute emergency, or fixing a chronic performance ailment, we understand the complexities of today's networks.

Like an M.D. For Your Network

Network problems can manifest themselves in many different ways. Often times a problem may exist on a network segment long before the user community is aware of the situation. When the problem finally percolates to the surface, the results can be devastating.

Downtime has taken on a whole new significance as more mission critical systems move into the network environment. New application technologies such as Tiered Client/Server and Web based system are causing many unforeseen problems to appear on otherwise healthy networks. Unoptimized network bandwidth and poor provisioning for increased utilization can dramatically afflict the performance of these new systems.

Unfortunately, you cannot determine how well a network is performing just by looking at it. To really understand the stresses and demands placed upon your network system, you must analyze the applications running, their methods of data access, and the complex transport mechanisms that are the lifeblood of modern systems. Niborex has years of experience in system design. This combined with our expert knowledge of networking environments, results in improved applications and faster response times for your organization.

Don't Just Be Reactive, Be Proactive

Reacting to a network outage situation is analogous to being subjected to a life and death business emergency. The life may be saved, but with sage prevention this crisis might have been averted altogether. Truly effective network management requires a much more proactive role.

Our proactive services make it possible to actually predict, isolate, and resolve potential network related problems before they create a costly outage. The service consists of several phases: Health Check, Baseline Analysis, and Optimization. Each phase provides crucial information required for accurate diagnosis and intervention.

The first phase is the network Health Check analysis. Health Checks are analogous to a medical check-up. Before any treatment can be begin, you must assess the current health of your network environment. They are not intended to provide complete in-depth problem isolation, but rather a quick and economical examination to determine existing and potential problems that would inhibit further analysis. Problems that are encountered should be remedied prior to proceeding to the next phase. Once your network is healthy, a regular program of care can be prescribed.

During the next phase, Baseline Analysis, information is collected to establish trends and indicate patterns, which can help you identify issues before they become a problem. Networks, like people, are individuals and unique - what is healthy for one network is not always healthy for another. Baselines provide a detailed examination of your environment. Knowing what is about to fail, or how a new application will affect the network, is invaluable information.

The information provided by Baseline Analysis, however, does little good if not acted upon. Optimization services can help rectify those situations that would benefit from modification, enhancement or even replacement. Our consultants work with your staff to keep your network operating at its optimal performance.
