Log Analytics Log Insight

Exchange Operations – Log Insight can help

Microsoft Exchange is the core messaging technology used in many enterprises.   How many times have you been through an Exchange or Outlook migration?  We all can relate to our experiences over the years.  Large, complex mission critical business applications such as Exchange can be taxing on Command Center and Exchange engineering teams.  The relevant operational time series data from exchange can be analyzed through our vCenter Operations  release last December.    Log data from Exchange is a very important source of additional data and  we have recently released our Microsoft Exchange Server Content Pack.  This content pack has six dashboards, 34 widgets, 32 queries, 9 alerts, and 96 extracted fields.
