Great Bay Software says, Beacon 3.0 focuses on efficient access to information, performance, and laying the foundation for future uses. The UI has been significantly enhanced; customers can access information with one click where it used to take four or five. Beacon now aggregates information about the system health, endpoint database, and event data into a single view so that enterprise administrators can quickly ascertain the state of Beacon and the network attached endpoints. In addition, the Great Bay has changed to FreeBSD® for all of its appliances, a move motivated by a quest for greater performance, more stability in terms of licensing, and better version control. “For us, running on a generic Linux variant was no longer enough,” said Pettit. “In our move to FreeBSD, we’ve seen dramatic improvements across the board.
