NOC (Network Operations Centers) View

NOC View often acts as a monitoring interface or display setup used in network operations centers to oversee and manage IT networks and infrastructure. It enables users to configure and monitor essential dashboards at specified intervals. NOC view includes dashboards showing real-time data on network health, traffic, server status, alerts, performance metrics, and potential issues to quickly identify and respond to incidents. Applications Manager's NOC View feature offers an effective and uninterrupted monitoring tool to keep track of critical network performance metrics and dashboards for Network Operations Centers.
