Integrating by using BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations

An organization with a huge IT infrastructure and global operations might have multiple monitoring tools that are used for monitoring and managing the performance and health of its infrastructure environment. Managing multiple and independent third-party monitoring tools might impact coherent monitoring.

As a tenant administrator, you can use BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations to integrate with third-party solutions (cloud-based, on-premise, or hybrid) so that you can get alert, event, and topology data from these solutions. You can view this data in BMC Helix Discovery and BMC Helix Operations Management and process it further in BMC Helix AIOps to derive actionable insights.

BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations uses REST APIs and the Webhook mechanism to communicate with a data source. BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations has the following advantages:

Enables fast and easy automated integrations
Provides continuous data streams from the connected data sources
Provides a click and connect capability to configure an integration
