Abstract
A method comprising: receiving network traffic data from a network traffic monitoring platform, the network traffic data identifying communication between entities of an enterprise network and storage monitoring data from a server-based SAN monitoring platform, the storage monitoring data identifying communication between a software-only server-based SAN and entities of the enterprise network, parsing the received traffic data and storage monitoring data to identify object data and/or metric data, creating a metric table entry from metric data, creating an object table entry from object data linking metric table entries with object table entries, creating a link table entry from the linking of metric table entries with object table entries, for each link table entry, assigning an object performance threshold, comparing each metric table entries to the assigned object performance threshold, if an alarm trigger condition is satisfied based on the comparison, then triggering an alarm event and outputting an alarm notification.
