DineshKumar3 - PeerSpot reviewer
Service Delivery Manager at DXC

We're using vRealize Log Insight version 6.7, and it's due for an upgrade to version 7 now. We predominantly use it for capacity management and overall monitoring. We also use the solution for the automation and deployment of new servers, so these are our major use cases for vRealize Log Insight.

I primarily utilize VMware Aria Operations for Logs for analyzing the performance metrics of my infrastructure, especially focusing on performance enhancements. Recently, I've integrated some Cisco hardware with VMware API Operations to extract and analyze relevant metrics. My main goal is to optimize the performance of my infrastructure.

The solution is used for troubleshooting in our application. Since we have a lot of components like email components and third-party components, the solution helps in managing the logs, and it helps in correlating the logs between products and in finding the problem in our infrastructure. 

We also use the solution if we want to debug something or if something is not working as expected, and it verifies everything. Also if there is any question about the infrastructure not resuming.

We use Log Insight when a log has been rotated in another product and we can't find it or when we need to locate incidents in the log. It has a log history going back to about six months ago. This is customizable, even on the environment side. Log Insight is used by 10 people on the operations team.

I use the solution to troubleshoot performance issues. It has a lot of dashboards. They give us an overview of the performance of the environment. We have several customers. We use the dashboards to see the performance of every customer’s environment. We can deep dive into the environment to see the issues.

There are various use cases for it. We use it for Operations monitoring. It's part of VMware's suite of products, including vRealize Automation (vRA) for automation and vRealize Orchestrator (vRO) for orchestration. Previously, it was known as VMware vRealize Log Insight.

We are using it for troubleshooting. We centralize the log information from the VMware products. When we need some troubleshooting or we need to locate some information, it is a central point to check reactively.

We integrate VMware for our customers. Our customer requested Log Insight, and we tested it. Log Insight is for logging the system to provide more information aside from alerts and anything related to the testing environment. It makes the environment more manageable through a single pane of glass.

In our data center, we have too many physical servers and too many hosts. We are not properly optimized. We are implementing this solution and other virtualization to provide us with the best way to place different workloads with the goal of optimizing the environment.

We are using this solution in our data center.

I primarily use the solution for a basic login switch. 

It's a centralized login server for us. When we have some incident or some log that we want to query, instead of querying directly to its server we analyze the logs and create our own specific queries.

The primary use case for this solution is virtualization. Instead of getting additional hardware devices, we can add different compartments of storage in one hardware device.

You don't have to get extra hardware devices, you just need one hardware device with different compartments, so you can save different tasks on different compartments in a secure server. That is the purpose of VMware on our server, and what works for multiple storage systems in a hardware device. That is what this solution is meant to do.

We use the on-premises version of this solution for log analysis and to find details about certain issues. My experience, however, is that Log Insight is not user friendly. You have to know a lot to find out how it works.
