This document provides an overview of Zenoss and its integration with VMware. It discusses Zenoss's unified monitoring and service analytics platform and how it helps operations teams optimize service delivery. Key points include: - Zenoss provides monitoring of physical, virtual, cloud and converged infrastructure from a single console. - It offers service impact analysis to help identify root causes of issues and prioritize responses. - Zenoss integrates with VMware technologies like vSphere, NSX, and vCloud to provide monitoring of the full VMware environment. - A demonstration will be given of how Zenoss monitors VMware infrastructure and provides service impact views.
