To integrate Virtual Machines and Aruba Networks (HPE) with your monitoring system, reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Virtual Machines and Aruba Networks (HPE) and how that can support your monitoring system.
A virtual machine is the process of creating a computer within a computer. It is a virtualization or emulation of a computer system. A virtual machine has its own CPU, memory, network interface, and storage. This is created on a physical hardware system, and is located in a different location. This can be off-premise, or on-premise. As VM’s provide functionality of a physical computer, they are often implemented with specialized hardware, software, or a combination of the two. These physical machines are known as “hosts”. Hosts use a hypervisor which is used to relocate compute resources (like CPU and memory) between “guest” machines/computers.
These Virtual Machines allow for multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on the same computer. There are 2 common types of virtual machines, System virtual machines (also known as full virtualization VMs), and Process virtual machines. The former provides a substitute for a real machine/computer, while the later are able to execute computer programs in a platform-independent environment.
Aruba Networks is a networking company and a subsidiary of HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprises). Aruba was established in 2002, and it was announced in 2015 that HPE would go ahead with the acquisition. Aruba has over 7000 employees in 7 regions worldwide. They offer many networking products much like the other big networking companies.
They are an industry leader in wired, wireless and security networking solutions. Aruba’s unified mobility networks significantly expand the reach of traditional port-centric networks. This securely delivers the enterprise network to users, whether they work or roam.

MetricFire is a full-scale platform that offers infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. The platform allows you to use either Prometheus- or Graphite-as-a-Service and have your metrics displayed on aesthetically-pleasing Grafana dashboards.
MetricFire offers its users a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, which is made up of three of the most popular open-source monitoring software services: Prometheus, Graphite, and Grafana. As well, plugins for a number of other open-source projects are preconfigured, such as StatsD, collectd, and Kubernetes. You get all these within a hosted environment as a single product. Not only does MetricFire fit well into the infrastructure monitoring use-case, such as network monitoring and server monitoring, we also do application monitoring and business intelligence.
Through this hosted environment, MetricFire works to boost the unique features of the open source projects to give you more functionality than the original products. Below are some of the MetricFire features at a glance:
Cloud and on Premise Monitoring
Hosted Prometheus
Hosted Graphite
Grafana Dashboards
Whether to use Prometheus or Graphite is a great question. We’ve looked deeper into this decision in our blog article, Prometheus or Graphite. While Prometheus is a newer software that has a multidimensional data structure, Graphite is robust and sufficient. The key thing to remember is that Hosted Graphite by MetricFire is more than just Graphite. Our Hosted Graphite product actually adds data dimensionality and better data storage.
The benefits of MetricFire are:
