SevOne and Tavve Enable Network Performance Monitoring on Both Sides of Firewall for Global 2000 Without Loss of Security

NEWARK, DE--(Marketwire - May 4, 2009) - SevOne, an innovator in network, server and application performance management solutions, today announced a technology integration partnership with Tavve, a leading provider of products that focus on securely extending the reach of security, systems, configuration, and network management applications across firewall-partitioned networks.

Tavve enables security, systems and network management software platforms to work in and around secure areas such as extranets, DMZs and remote networks, while SevOne delivers real time, distributed IT performance reporting tools and services to enterprises and service providers. The integration of these leading solutions enables customers to more securely access DMZ firewall devices for reporting while reducing equipment usage and network traffic. Additionally, the integrated solution eliminates the need for additional firewall rules to allow performance data to be obtained beyond the firewall.

"This strategic integration of network performance monitoring and security technology provides our valued customers with greater access to devices on both sides of the DMZ firewall, without loss of security," said Michael Phelan, president and CEO of SevOne. "Tavve's broad range of protocol and application support is unmatched in the security industry and SevOne's powerful peer-to-peer network management software solution continues to displace more complex and costly legacy solutions at leading enterprises and service providers. This combined solution creates a powerful, streamlined, and secure IT monitoring solution that benefits organizations across many different industries."

The Tavve Ranger Gateway software has been integrated into SevOne's award-winning, Performance Appliance Solution (PAS™), providing an "appliance only" system that eliminates the need for a separate server in the data center to maintain the Tavve software. The integration enables Global 2,000 companies to simplify the path for information flow while reducing overall network traffic. Tavve delivers critical network monitoring information through the DMZ firewall without compromising the integrity of the network, allowing customers to meet network, server and application monitoring and security objectives.

"To obtain mission-critical monitoring information in real-time you need the ability to cross the firewall barrier," said Donnie Goins, COO and President of Tavve. "Our Ranger Gateway software and ZoneRanger appliance allows for SevOne's performance management software to securely communicate network management data through the DMZ firewalls."

In 2008/2009, SevOne's network performance monitoring solution has been named a "Product of the Year" by TMC's Communications Solutions Magazine, a Hot Company by Network Products Guide, an IT Infrastructure "Product to Watch" by eWeek, and a Top 10 IT Management Start-Up by Network World Magazine.
