SolarWinds Platform
by SolarWinds
SolarWinds Platform, formerly Orion, monitors routers, switches, servers and applications from a self-hosted server. With SWQL over REST you can read nodes and their status, interfaces with traffic and errors, active alerts, events and performance statistics such as CPU, memory and response time. In the Lake, that history meets circuit costs, site data and ticket volume.

02Data
What you can sync.
- Nodes
- Interfaces
- Alerts
- Events
- Performance statistics
Keep SolarWinds Platform nodes in your own Lake, on your servers, and report on it with the rest of IT.
Need more? Name any other SolarWinds Platform data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- A username and password
SolarWinds Platform uses a username and password. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in SolarWinds if you need help.
04Questions
Questions you can answer.
Once SolarWinds Platform data is in your Lake, ask an AI Mind in plain words or build the answer in DataPrism BI.
- Which interfaces exceeded eighty percent utilization during business hours most often last month?
- Which nodes had the most down events, and at which sites?
- How do interface error and discard rates trend per device model?
- What does each site's WAN circuit cost per gigabyte carried?
- Which alerts stayed active longest before being acknowledged?
05How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick SolarWinds Platform.
Open Lake, pick SolarWinds Platform in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the SolarWinds Platform API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the SolarWinds Platform documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example nodes and interfaces), whether you want a one-time load or a recurring sync, and which accounts or filters apply.
-
Your data lands in Lake.
It builds the connector, tests it and shows you sample rows. Then SolarWinds Platform data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
