Umlindi is the Zulu word for
protector. It is also the name for
the SharePoint management offering
from GTconsult.
What
• A well implemented SharePoint environment
becomes an essential, business-critical tool.
• What is the value of keeping your SharePoint
environment healthy?
• Is your environment supported, monitored
and proactively maintained?
• Umlindi provides a cloud-based, remotely-
managed platform through which GTconsult
provides automated, proactive monitoring and
a reactive warning system for client SharePoint
environments.
How
• GTconsult has created a bespoke platform that provides a
combination of technology and services, allowing us to
closely manage our customer SharePoint environments.
• Utilizing a world-class remote monitoring system that has
been customized for SharePoint, we are able to capture
real-time data and activity trends about your SharePoint
environment to quickly and proactively resolve issues.
• Being proactive means that we can help you better meet
your defined SharePoint requirements, ensuring that your
environment is optimized for the end user experience.
• When an incident does occur, it is managed swiftly and
efficiently within an agreed service level agreement (SLA).

Why
• SharePoint is a complex and diverse technology
that requires database understanding, web
development know-how, and server
administration skills.
• This combination of skills is a rare commodity,
even among die hard system and network
administrators, who are usually burdened with the
responsibility of the SharePoint environment.
• What remains is a business-critical system left in
the hands of what is often an under-skilled and
over-worked resource.
Umlindi SQL Management
Umlindi Score under 40 – Very Good
Memory Usage is high and main culprit
1 millisecond Read/Write Speed which is as good as it gets
However we have had some occasional peaks
Over 500 SQL connections constantly no issues there
Umlindi SharePoint Management
Umlindi Score over 60 – Not Good
Memory Usage is high but not the main culprit
A number of errors in the event log which could give us some clues
Page Load time is constantly over 2 seconds which is a major concern
Current active IIS Connections 33 which is OK but we have had some peaks
Daily Overview
Umlindi Standard Support
10 hours of pre-booked support per month allows for peace of
mind that, at any point in time, a helpdesk representative can
respond quickly and efficiently to any SharePoint query, without
the worry of additional costs at the end of the month.
These queries can range from WSP deployments, restoring sites
from backup, to resolving any unknown errors that may occur.
