But as the COVID epidemic rages across India this anniversary is bittersweet, as many of my friends and co-workers in the US have family in India and indeed many co-workers are in our teams there. Please pray for them and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/04\/28\/world\/asia\/india-covid-how-to-help.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">help if you can<\/a>. For me, it\u2019s been 20 years since eG entered the US marketplace-at that time, I was one of their first customers and have remained close to them ever since. For a company to survive two decades in an unbelievably complex and competitive performance monitoring landscape is no small feat, and I believe we are still a \u2018gem\u2019 in an often confused and fragmented marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>For two decades, eG Innovations has remained laser focused on our original vision and mission, which translates to helping customers answer the question, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/product\/application-performance-monitoring\">why is my application slow?<\/a><\/em> With customer experience driving competitive advantage today, turning IT investments into competitive advantage is impossible without assuring the performance of websites, applications, and digital user experience.<\/p>\n<p>The patented analytics embedded in the eG monitor have a proven ability to isolate complex performance problems across heterogeneous, multi-vendor IT ecosystems amid a changing technology landscape.<\/p>\n<p>From the early days of web applications, to virtualized infrastructures, cloud deployment models, code-level <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/what-is-event-correlation-and-why-does-event-correlation-matter-when-monitoring\/-and-why-does-event-correlation-matter-when-monitoring\/\">correlation<\/a>, and today\u2019s container-based applications eG Enterprise has continued to automate the isolation of which layer of which component is the source of a performance anomaly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-14765\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/it-infrastructure-problems.jpg?no\" alt=\"98% of user experience problems result from IT problems\" width=\"220\" height=\"160\" border=\"0\" \/>In fact, as Forrester recently stated almost all user experience issues rely on multiple parts of increasingly complex, multi-vendor IT ecosystems. It\u2019s no wonder that IT organizations are furiously focused on culture change (<em>can you say DevOps?<\/em>), automation (<em>can you say SRE<\/em>?) and leveraging AI (<em>can you say AIOps?<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Having been on a two-decade journey with eG Innovations, I\u2019m often finding myself saying \u2018<em>wait a minute, haven\u2019t we been <u>doing<\/u> that!?<\/em>&#8230;\u2019<\/p>\n<p>For example, our fully <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/converged-application-infrastructure-monitoring\">converged APM\/IPM architecture<\/a> provides a level of performance transparency that is ideal for dealing with the \u2018IT silo\u2019 challenge. We have old slides with \u2018<em>no more silos<\/em>\u2019 that are <em><u>15 years old<\/u><\/em>; well before the DevOps movement began.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also been leveraging artificial intelligence and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/product\/application-performance-monitoring\">machine learning to auto-baseline<\/a> the infrastructure and dynamically determine alert thresholds&#8211;and have been refining this capability for two decades.<\/p>\n<p>And of course, what we used to call \u2018automated-triage\u2019, our use of a Command Line Interface and (more recently) the addition of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/documentation\/Automatically-Configuring-the-Target-Environment-using-REST-API\/Introduction.htm\">REST-API<\/a> addresses many critical IT operational automation requirements (i.e., AIOps, SRE).<\/p>\n<p>There are other competitors, who can rattle off some or all of these features, in most cases through acquisitions, and this is another area that differentiates eG Innovations.<\/p>\n<p>eG Enterprise is a <em>single product<\/em>, architected by a <em>single company<\/em> that embeds deep domain expertise across diverse, heterogeneous, and multi-vendor components. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/product\/capabilities\/monitoring-agent\">Universal Monitor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/supported-technologies\/unified-monitoring\">Unified Monitoring<\/a> approach is ideal for customers, who need a 360\u00b0 view of end-user experience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-14766\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/platform-integration.jpg?no\" alt=\"Platform Integration management requires constant context switching\" width=\"320\" height=\"260\" border=\"0\" \/>Perhaps more importantly, this level of automated visibility can be tailored to a customer\u2019s requirements, allowing IT staff to focus on <em>configuring and using<\/em> a monitor, as opposed to <em>building and integrating<\/em> diverse monitoring toolsets.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, monitoring and observability go hand in hand. Digital business services that are designed with observability in mind provide mechanisms that build telemetry into the service that can trigger self-healing through embedded analytics and automated diagnostics.<\/p>\n<p>Monitoring provides critical feedback to design and development and is required for effective observability. The eG architecture can help your staff remain focused on configuring and tuning the monitor for business results, not creating a monitoring system from scratch.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you need 360\u00b0 visibility from workspaces to workloads, help us celebrate our 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/product\/application-performance-monitoring\/free-trial\">giving us a look<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll both be glad you did.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 28px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Total_Performance_Visibility_from_Workspaces_to_Workloads\"><\/span>Total Performance Visibility: from Workspaces to Workloads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/total-performance-visibility-full.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/total-performance-visibility.jpg?nor\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14764\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/digital-performance-management.jpg?nore\" alt=\"eG Innovations is the Digital Performance Management Company\" width=\"600\" height=\"130\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since eG Innovations was founded in the summer of \u00a02001, a colleague recently asked me about our 20th Anniversary, which we celebrate this year.
