An Introduction to Integrating Partner Applications with VPO
Why Integrate with VPO?
Chapter 1 31
HP OpenView Partnerships
The major benefit resulting from an integration with VPO is the
increased customer value of the integrated solution. VPO is the
industrial standard for problem management and supports a wide range
of platforms which have either been developed internally, or by partners.
When you integrate a solution with VPO, it becomes part of a
comprehensive management solution which meets customers’
requirements for a unified system management approach. This increases
the value your solution provides to customers, making it attractive to
market segments that it couldn’t previously address. A partner
program has been established by Hewlett-Packard to support your
integration efforts.
Integrations created by solution partners can be validated and certified
by Hewlett-Packard to achieve the status of HP OpenView Premier
Partner. Validation ensures that the integration is well-behaved and
does not conflict with other integrated solutions. As an HP OpenView
Premier Partner, your solution is recommended by HP sales channels,
you can leverage from the well-established HP OpenView brand name,
and you receive immediate market exposure for your solution through
HP market awareness and selling tools.
