Observability platforms help IT teams continuously monitor service health and performance, driving superior service quality and customer experience. Access to deeper diagnostics and actionable insights from observability tools lets IT operators drive scalability, resilience, and service reliability across complex, distributed environments.
Today, we're excited to announce that HPE OpsRamp has been named a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Observability Platforms 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc #US53004325, November 2025). This recognition affirms our long‑term commitment to delivering the most advanced observability platform for enterprises and service providers.
The Need for Observability
IDC recognizes observability vendors as critical players in the enterprise digital ecosystem. Observability solutions provide IT teams with capabilities such as “data collection, real-time monitoring, root cause analysis, business impact analysis, decision orchestration, automated remediation, and developer extensibility.”
Why should IT operations teams invest in observability tools? Here are the top benefits:
- Shared Context. Observability platforms enable IT teams to “unify signals from diverse sources, prioritize them by relevance, and provide shared context for real‑time decision‑making.”
- End-to-End Visibility. These solutions integrate “metrics, logs, traces, events, and experience data to accelerate troubleshooting and enable AI‑driven operations across complex IT environments.”
- Contextual Insights. Observability vendors gather “multi‑signal telemetry from diverse environments, providing comprehensive, queryable data for business impact analysis and informed decision‑making.”
- Faster Recovery. Leading providers offer “automated remediation via runbooks, approvals, and AI‑guided workflows that remain auditable and reversible to reduce risk.”
Why IDC Ranked HPE OpsRamp as a Major Player
In its quantitative and qualitative assessment, the IDC MarketScape report highlighted HPE OpsRamp’s strengths in “zero‑touch onboarding, YAML‑driven configuration, and a broad integration catalog that enables cross‑team context sharing.”
The report outlines several reasons why organizations should evaluate HPE OpsRamp to meet their observability needs:
- Unified Observability. HPE OpsRamp provides “unified visibility across metrics, events, logs, and traces, supported by native OpenTelemetry intake, eBPF‑based auto‑instrumentation, dynamic discovery, service mapping, and automated delivery.”
- Hybrid Platform. HPE OpsRamp’s core strengths lie in “hybrid coverage and ecosystems that close tooling gaps while ensuring portability and governance across diverse IT estates.”
- Data Collection. HPE OpsRamp gateways and agents “discover and monitor assets across on‑premises, cloud, and Kubernetes environments, with native support for Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and major cloud providers.”
- Scale. HPE OpsRamp’s delivery maturity is demonstrated by its SaaS platform, “which processes billions of metric samples daily and terabytes of data per customer, while ingesting and correlating event storms across enterprise estates.”
- Ecosystem. HPE’s programs and field capacity—powered by over 11,000 sellers, 69,000 partners, and the OpsRamp global partner network—expand reach and enhance service coverage.
