Full Application Monitoring in VCF Operations

Full Application Monitoring in VCF Operations

We continue expanding our extensions on the VCF Marketplace.

We’ve already published 9 extensions, and today we’re introducing another one — focused on application monitoring (Application Performance Monitoring, APM).

👀 Do you have full visibility into your applications?

In many environments, VCF Operations lacks deep insight into application performance.

👉 This is where Flopsar comes in — an APM (Application Performance Monitoring) solution that provides:

  • real-time application monitoring
  • root cause analysis
  • full visibility into application resources

With Flopsar agents, you can monitor your applications 24/7 without building custom solutions.

Flopsar integration with VCF Operations

The Application Insight (Flopsar) extension integrates application data directly into VCF Operations.

👉 The result? A single platform for monitoring both infrastructure and applications.

The extension includes:

  • accurate mapping of application metrics and properties
  • preconfigured alerts for critical events
  • dashboards tailored for system administrators

👉 This gives you instant visibility into your applications in VCF Operations from the very first data collection.

🚀 What’s next?

Wondering if you really need another agent?

👉 In the coming weeks, we’ll introduce a solution that might change your approach to application monitoring.

Tales from the Admin Desk: On Crashes, Weird Bosses, and IT Chaos

Tales from the Admin Desk: On Crashes, Weird Bosses, and IT Chaos

We all love talking about success. About what’s going well, projects finished on time, and landing new clients. This applies to us as individuals, but also as companies, organizations, and startups. However, we all know that life isn’t always a bed of roses. Sometimes things just don’t work out. Tools break. Colleagues get on our nerves. Sometimes… life just happens, and all we can do is watch.

What is the "Admin Life" series all about?

It’s exactly those observations that sparked our new series: “Admin Life.” With a wink and a healthy dose of self-deprecation, we describe situations that probably never happened… but definitely could have. We write about system meltdowns, bizarre boss demands, and teammates who know exactly how to push your buttons. It’s a look at the late nights, the sleepy days, the “fires” we have to put out, and those moments when our minds are miles away.

Why should you read it?

f you want to see our work from a perspective we usually hide behind trade show banners and shiny brochures, this series is for you. We post every week to add a bit of color to this gray winter. Any resemblance to real persons is purely coincidental—these are just the ramblings of an ordinary human. Please, don’t take them too seriously.
