System Center Operations Manager 2007

System Center Operations Manager 2007 (SCOM 2007) is the 3rd generation of the monitoring solution System Center Operations Manager published by Microsoft.

Place in the product family
It followed Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 but also marks a clear difference with its predecessors.

The code base was completely redesigned explaining major differences between the two solutions. Among the new features and concepts, the most prominent was certainly the use of the classes and objects model found in the modern versions of the solution.

It was also integrated in the System Center suite. The decision was not purely marketing and resulted in the apparition of connectors allowing SCOM to work with other solutions such as System Center Service Manager.

Those differences along the change in name laid the foundation of the System Center Operations Manager product family as it is known today.

It was followed by System Center Operations Manager 2012.
