Introduction

Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) is widely used in conjunction with IIS in Windows environments. While IIS is used as the front end, MTS is used to host the business logic components. Sporadic or persistent issues in the availability or all-round performance of the MTS server, can delay the processing of business logic, and thus, severely hamper the delivery of the dependent services. This implies that like the IIS web server, the performance of the MTS also deserves constant attention. eG Enterprise offers a specilized monitoring model for continuously monitoring performance of the Microsoft Transaction Server.
