BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA and AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwire - March 23, 2011) - [ SolarWinds ]®, Inc. (
APNIC is the not-for-profit member organization that provides Internet addressing services across the Asia Pacific region, which includes growing numbers to accommodate rapidly expanding Internet use in China and India. APNIC has more than 3,200 account holders in 56 economies throughout the region and the organization has 65 staff at the head office in Brisbane. In the first quarter of 2010 alone, APNIC distributed a record 27 million IPv4 Internet addresses.
APNIC purchased SolarWinds' [ Orion Network Performance Monitor ] (NPM) and [ Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer ] (NTA) solutions to improve monitoring and reporting on its network, which spans three sites in Australia and additional sites in Japan, Hong Kong and the USA.
APNIC's Senior Network Engineer Amante Alvaran said, "Since so many people throughout the Asia Pacific depend on us, it is crucial that our services like Reverse DNS and the Whois Database be online and accessible at all times. The APNIC High Availability initiative is focused on maintaining a strong focus on redundancy, availability, and efficiency of our services."
"To achieve this we need to have the best available monitoring system to accomplish all this, and I am confident that the new SolarWinds solutions will give us good visual information on our infrastructure, as well visibility into the data flowing in and out of our network," Alvaran said.
