Traverse has a distributed event handler which can scale to large environments
and accept syslogs, SNMP traps, Windows events or any other text messages.
The intelligent parser sifts through all the logs looking for items that match
specified patterns in real-time, and based on customizable policies it transforms
the message and assigns a severity to this event.
The message handler is completely distributed and extensible, and new data
sources can be added easily into the framework using the built-in functionality
for monitoring text files, and reading from TCP sockets. After the distributed
filters parse and assign a priority to the event, the events are forwarded
to an Event Manager with an in-memory database which is responsible for de-duplication
of events and displaying them on a web console.
NOC operators can use the Event Manager to acknowledge events, suppress and
even annotate them. The flexible and scalable nature of the Traverse event
handler makes it a perfect tool for large or medium Network Operation Centers
which require a web based, easy to use event handling framework.
