 HQ 4.0 Beta Program

We are one release closer to the launch of 4.0! Hyperic HQ 4.0 is designed for greater ease of implementation, management and scale. It also features a swank new UI, a new API, JMX MBean Query tool and more plugins. If you’re thinking about deploying 4.0, you can start testing it out now:

Round 4 of the 4.0 beta has commenced. Four as in "four people have already earned a Hyperic mousepad", as in "four more are well on their way to earning the mug." How did they do it? They installed the 4.0 beta, and logged some bugs.

In case you missed last week’s HyperCAST, it was all about Hyperic HQ 4.0. Don Baron, Sales Engineer and Chip Witt, Product Manager show off the new face of the dashboard and get under the hood of the soon-to-be latest version of Hyperic HQ. We know some people sign up, and then forget or suddenly have a meeting and just can’t make it to the live HyperCAST–not to name names pythagoras42, but you never show up. In any case, we’ve archived it for you.

Speaking of HyperCASTs, on Tuesday, October 7th we take a closer look at the JMX MBean Query tool. Learn how to simplify the management of Java apps under HQ.

If you missed or want to re-watch any of our HyperCASTs, we have built a library of archives. 

The Hyperic Partner Program is growing at a rapid pace. The newest member of our OEM Partner program is Dalet Digital Media Systems, a worldwide leader in Media Asset Management (MAM) solutions. Dalet selected Hyperic HQ Enterprise to power its upcoming Dalet Dashboard, essentially building a complete monitoring and management tool for the broadcast industry in a matter of months by partnering with Hyperic. For more details on their project check out the press release.
