How to Deliver Top-Notch Performance of Enterprise Applications
Enterprise applications like SAP, Siebel and PeopleSoft are business critical. Slow or poor performance of these applications can result in revenue loss for businesses, unhappy users and lost productivity.
eG Enterprise Universal Insight helps operations teams assure the performance of enterprise applications. By monitoring, analyzing and correlating the performance of all the tiers that support the application, it helps organizations proactively detect and fix issues. Empirical data helps architects optimize and right-size their applications for maximal performance and utilization.
Challenges
Enterprise applications are being deployed in a multi-tier architecture (web, J2EE, database, etc.). While multi-tier architectures offer scalability, they make monitoring and diagnosis harder. Since there are inter-dependencies between the tiers, a problem in one tier can impact all the other tiers. The administrator's challenge is how quickly he/she can identify where the problem lies (network? firewall? web? Java? SAP? database?) and resolve the problem quickly.
The deployment of enterprise applications on virtual machines poses additional challenges. The application performance is affected by that of the VM and the hypervisor it is running on. Dynamic migration of VMs further accentuates the problem.
eG Innovations provides the best value for the money coupling visibility and excellent reporting. Using their automatic root cause analysis we avoided throwing $$ at the problem and realized $20K in savings - immediately.
