The Netcool/Proviso Product Suite

Netcool/Proviso is made up of the following components:

Netcool/Proviso DataMart is a set of management, configuration and troubleshooting GUIs that the Netcool/Proviso System Administrator uses to define policies and configuration, as well as verify and troubleshoot operations.

Netcool/Proviso DataLoad provides flexible, distributed data collection and data import of SNMP and non-SNMP data to a centralized database.

Netcool/Proviso DataChannel aggregates the data collected through Netcool/Proviso DataLoad for use by the Netcool/Proviso DataView reporting functions. It also processes on-line calculations and detects real- time threshold violations.

Netcool/Proviso DataView is a reliable application server for on-demand, web-based network reports.

Netcool/Proviso Technology Packs extend the Netcool/Proviso system with service-ready reports for network operations, business development, and customer viewing.
