Case Study: Carilion Clinic cuts network resolution time in half with Plixer Scrutinizer

Carilion Clinic - Customer Case Study

Carilion Clinic, a healthcare organization with 240 sites across rural southwest Virginia, needed better visibility into a large, multi-vendor network to protect patient care. Its team had to ensure life-critical applications received enough bandwidth on limited connections, avoid disruption from non-critical traffic, and monitor devices from Cisco, Juniper, Riverbed, and F5. Plixer’s Scrutinizer was used to address these challenges.

Plixer implemented a centrally deployed Scrutinizer appliance to monitor, visualize, and report on traffic across Carilion Clinic’s network. The solution gave the IT team a single view of application performance and rich forensic data, helping them cut network Time-To-Resolution in half, prioritize clinical applications, and anticipate the networking needs of new or acquired sites more efficiently.
