IT Operations has spoken and AppFirst is listening!
I hear you loud and clear! You spend all of your time putting out fires and, with the big gap in monitoring tools, you’ll never get out of that mode.
It’s time to do better than “your father’s monitoring products”. System monitors only tell you the health of the physical or virtual box (with no insight to what’s inside). Application-specific probes and agents don’t paint a complete n-tier application picture. Byte-code analysis doesn’t see the entire application as it executes, and it focuses on finding code problems that lead to performance issues when, actually, the majority of IT Operations issues are due to non-code-specific changes in the infrastructure configuration or usage patterns. As you can see, there’s a huge gap of unaddressed monitoring needs for IT operations.
Until you can see your entire application stack as it executes in real time, you’ll still be settling for blind spots that lead to fire fighting and extended delays while you try to put out the fires.
With help and input from your IT peers, AppFirst has not only listened but has built the only Infrastructure Performance Management Solution that:
- Visualizes your entire application stack as it executes
- Captures the response times and detailed resource utilization profiles for every application
- Automatically and continuously discovers and maps the topology of every application
- Allows you to know with certainty what’s changing within your application and to use this insight to make smart infrastructure decisions to reduce performance issues and lower your costs
- Works across Windows, Linux, physical deployments, virtual deployments and cloud deployments
- Takes minutes to set up and provides instant value
What does all of this mean? AppFirst is delivering the industry’s first deterministic IT Infrastructure root cause analysis solution! By determining what has changed when slower than acceptable response times occur, we can provide IT with not only the complete view of the application stack, but also the depth to know in minutes all the information that has eluded IT without us.
Your time is valuable, your company’s cost of operations matters, and we are committed to your success in achieving your goals in these metrics.
