AccelOps virtual appliance software platform brings together traditionally disparate silos of analytics data into a cohesive, holistic, single-pane-of-glass-view into an organization's network. Accelops patented analytics cross-correlates, in real-time, Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) analytics from the Security Operations Center (SOC) and Applications Performance Management (APM) analytics from the Network Operations Center (NOC) to more rapidly identify threats to network security, compliance and performance. Accelops unique platform is fundamentally changing the ways organizations are managing threats to their network security and performance.

The Accelops platform self-learns all the elements in an organization's network and Data Center Infrastructure including network devices, environmental equipment such as UPS, servers, storage, hypervisors, and applications and creates a Centralized Management Database (CMDB). The Accelops CMDB tool maps (physical, and logical topology) of all the elements and applications and their interdependencies. The CMDB continues to self learn and report on any (planned or unplanned) changes to the network environment for ongoing performance, availability, security and change management for IT service management.
