Blake's Product Pick of the Week: KACE KBOX 1000 Series Systems Management Appliances

*I receive dozens of press releases every week. This week, I've found the following product particularly interesting.

Automate the Management of the Entire IT Asset Lifecycle
KACE Networks announced updates to its KBOX 1000 Series Systems Management Appliances, which provide systems management coverage across the network lifecycle, from deployment to retirement. The KBOX 1000 Series features a new KACE Asset Management Module that automates the management of the entire IT asset lifecycle. KBOX automates key processes, including audit, tracking, and reconciliation of asset data. The KACE Asset Management Module features a notification and alert engine that can trigger alerts based on configuration changes, license compliance, or based on key milestone dates in license agreements, lease agreements, or other contracts. Additional module features include physical asset tracking and configuration management. The KBOX 1000 Series also supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0.
