Case Study: Viking Line achieves unified distributed IT monitoring with OP5 Monitor

Viking Line balances local and central IT management with OP5 Monitor

Viking Line, a Finnish shipping group with a distributed IT environment spanning seven ships and multiple Baltic Sea offices, faced the challenge of efficiently monitoring this highly mobile infrastructure. To address this, they partnered with OP5 to implement the OP5 Monitor solution, seeking to gain better control and a unified overview of their systems.

OP5 implemented a fully distributed monitoring system using OP5 Monitor Enterprise, which included local instances on each ship to function even without constant internet access. This provided local control while relaying data to a central monitoring hub. The result was greatly improved control of their complete IT environment, allowing the team to quickly respond to failures. Viking Line specifically appreciated OP5's ongoing commitment to improving scalability and support for distributed solutions, including enhanced communication over satellite links.
