Real Time Monitoring for Application Performance Management

tevron — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 10:53:59 +0000

Real time monitors review systems in an ongoing manner. In simple terms, this process provides a moment-by-moment account of an application’s performance. Therefore, results provided by a real time monitoring system include information that can be used for making decisions on the spot, or on an everyday basis. A real time monitor generates results that are different from reports generated weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Real time monitoring is a necessary practice for many businesses, depending upon the kind of services they offer.

A real time monitor is also needed for systems where services include everyday operations and functions, and where errors can affect business and revenue generation. Areas that come under the purview of a real time monitoring system include the IT set-up and set-ups that utilize active communication programs, such as alerts and reports. Real time monitoring is also used to authenticate service level agreements (SLA). Systems that undertake business service management, or customer-centric duties also benefit greatly from a real time monitoring system.

A real time monitoring system will detect problems long before they turn into potential problems. Early detection is vital to researching and executing corrective measures before things go out of control for the service or business provider. The same logic applies to interfaces such client dashboards which benefit immensely from a real time monitoring system. If errors are detected while monitoring, then corrective measures can be taken immediately before the client suffers loss of any kind.

Real time monitoring solutions are an intrinsic part of application performance mapping and management as well. In situations where service scales have been documented in the form of an SLA, regular real time monitoring can be indispensable to ensure compliance to the agreement. In case of instances of non-compliance, the system can be formatted to raise an alert such that corrective measures can be initiated and executed immediately.

Application Monitoring System – Understanding When Does Your Business Need One

tevron — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 06:45:21 +0000

Application monitoring system performs by monitoring applications’ incoming traffic and tracking illegitimate access and chances of data theft. It usually keeps track of the source and time of traffic for troubleshooting any application. Software of this type is generally facilitated for applications that require greater security like -finance software and databases.

Now, coming to the necessity of implementing application monitoring system, how this is important is necessary to understand. There are multiple natures, this application monitoring system can manifest. How application monitoring system can help you protect your business and IT infrastructure is quite easy to understand once the nature of different application monitoring system is known.

Uptime Monitoring
Uptime monitoring software checks and monitors the availability of each device and alerts the administrator in case any system fails. Uptime monitoring software can be implemented to ascertain where issues may arise in future within a network enabling administrator to balance loads.

Monitoring of Transaction
Transaction based applications are monitored facilitating transaction monitoring system. The transaction completion time can be tracked and compared with desired times. Successful execution of these transactions is the key to the success of any business.

Monitoring of Data Files
In some application environments transactions are conducted offline where the data travels from one point to another. This offline data travel is witnessed were businesses send their daily sales data to their head office each night in the shape of data file. This type of data flow can be tracked and controlled by constantly monitoring the several drop and pick points of the data files. At frequent equal intervals counts are taken at drop and pickup points to ensure the accurate flow of data files.

This can also act as proactively monitoring of the data flow as the problem will be known when files begin to amass at a drop point on its first occurrence and system can be prevented from getting blocked by looking into the reason of the accumulation of files.

Monitoring of Database
To monitor the transactional well being of a database some monitoring transactions, for instance generating records, updating the record etc. can be conducted and the time taken for each transaction is recorded.

In majority of the cases if system is overloaded the transaction time will be longer, which is the indication to look into the problem area in database and debug it before it goes down.

Monitoring of Resource
Constant monitoring of system resources can ward off application and operating system from slowing down and crashing. If disk space is full, the system can crash right away as they cannot write logs etc. on the disk.

These are a few of the natures of implementing application monitoring systems that are mostly utilized and this is why application monitoring systems are implemented by majority of the businesses.

Benefits of APM Monitoring Tool

tevron — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 08:55:47 +0000

Application performance management (APM) monitoring system is all about catapulting user’s experience with the accessibility of application and quick response time allowing them to deliver good customer service. Today majority of the enterprises realize the significance of the APM and its effect on the productivity and return on investment of their companies.

Application Performance Management (APM) is acknowledged as the monitoring tool for catapulting performance within a network. It retains and monitors transmission quality. It also accentuates application response times by discarding excess and unwanted data transfer.

Based on a survey undertaken by IDG Research, 90 percent of the participants accepted that the adoption of an APM monitoring system are helpful in identifying and troubleshooting performance issues in their network.

Benefits of APM Monitoring System:

APM monitoring tool analyzes, organizes, and optimizes the performance and service availability of software applications in a WAN. In addition, it monitors the ongoing application 24×7 and offers a detailed evaluation of response time and its impacts on network, server, application and end user. Its most prominent benefits at different levels include:

Server Level

An Application Performance Management solution stores data process pattern of all crucial transactions. APM also predicts response times when the data centers are consolidated.

Network Level

It diminishes risks to application performance and enhances bandwidth capacity. It offers insight into the WAN application traffic methods of the enterprise. It recognizes the high-end applications based on bandwidth usage, failed TCP connections and packet losses.

Application Level

The APM monitoring tools tracks and manages new application rollouts, ascertains the primary cause of slow response time for a mission critical application and identifies data flow pattern of every important transaction.

End-user Level

Application accessibility and response time are the basic performance functions that end users are associated to. They should be aptly satisfied with application interactions. APM monitoring tool maintains and handles the basic user response times for the important applications.

As the productivity of any company is heavily dependent on the performance of software applications accessed, it becomes even more important to choose the right APM monitoring system. Even small delays can result in great amounts of wasted time, which leads to customer dissatisfaction. So, let an eminent company take care of all your Application Performance Management (APM) needs because faster response times will allow the end users to get their responses faster which in turn enhances your company’s revenue.
