Xian IO for Operations Manager 2007
Arnold Hagens, marketing director at Jalasoft, held a Livemeeting today showing their new flagship product Xian IO. Their new solution will fully integrate with the upcoming System Center Operations Manager 2007 product, adding monitoring support for networking devices such as Cisco routers and switches. A key feature is the deep integration with OpsMgr 2007.Not only do they provide in-line tasks (example: view device information) but also allow wizard-based configuration of alerting thresholds (example: alert above 70% usage of the connection). My personal favorite, and probably the feature most customers really will want for their Line of Business monitoring, is that fact that Xian IO will discover objects and allow them to be used in the Application Designer of OpsMgr:

Xian IO will be available to selected testers as a private beta release in the first half of february. While a RTM date is not yet available, it will probably coincide with the RTM release of Operations Manager 2007.
