Scrutinizer v7: Google Maps Improve
Posted in General, Network Health Report, Scrutinizer, Third Party Integration on January 6th, 2009 by mike@plixer.com
I thought some of you might appreciate an update on some of the nifty Google™ mapping features we are working on for Scrutinizer v7.0. In the next release we have added the features supported in our flash maps:
- Clickable links bring up the top hosts/applications/conversations etc. specific to the connection
- The connections change color based on definable thresholds
Other Google Map features include:
- multiple Google maps
- improved GPS placement for icons
- icons changing color based on the device status across multiple 3rd party applications
- linking to other map applications (e.g. flash maps with Visio backgrounds, WhatsUp Gold, etc.)
Version 7.0 will include many new features. Improved Google map support is only a fraction of what we are working on. I’ll leak more later.
