Dell Technologies follows a consultative and systematic approach to help IT professionals modernize their infrastructure. The first stage in setting up the new Azure Stack HCI is to start by sizing the new system. To do that we must first collect and analyze the information from the currently running workloads. Dell EMC Live Optics is a free online tool that can gain insights into your environment by collecting configuration and performance data from Microsoft Windows, VMware vCenter, Linux/Unix based servers, and storage. By recording and exploring the current state of IT environments, we can help accelerate informed decisions and reduce the risk of under or overprovisioning the infrastructure.
Note: Live optics collector captures only configuration related data of the customer’s environment and does not include Personal Identifiable Information (PII) data.
