AppDynamics announced the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform.

The Application Intelligence Platform is a next generation technology foundation for the AppDynamics portfolio of performance monitoring, automation and analytics solutions that provide a simple, user-friendly interface enabling DevOps, IT Ops and business professionals alike to better understand their application data, troubleshoot performance issues and make well-informed business decisions. In short, the platform allows today’s businesses to see, act and know in a way they have never before been able to do. The platform brings certainty in an uncertain world.

Software-defined businesses have complex, distributed, difficult-to-manage applications. Making sense of all the data, transactions, events and user interactions in these environments is increasingly difficult as the volume, variety and velocity of data grows. Current monitoring and management tools are complex to deploy and maintain, operate in disconnected silos, thereby limiting their usefulness and business value.

In response to the limitations of today’s solutions, the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform provides an integrated view of actual transactions and provides comprehensive discovery and diagnostics capabilities, automatic visualization of application topology and real-time auto-remediation. This robust functionality provides businesses the solutions needed to convert data and information into actionable knowledge and intelligence that keeps them ahead of the curve. Building on the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform is the newly announced Transaction Analytics product, a powerful solution allowing businesses to see in real-time the commercial or business value of user-transactions and how they correlate with operational data and overall application performance.

“With the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform, businesses can see deep into all the applications and transactions running across the enterprise, quickly take action against any performance issues that may occur and provide the analytical intelligence to solve operational and business problems,” said Jyoti Bansal, founder and CEO, AppDynamics. “The Application Intelligence Platform provides the end-to-end certainty necessary to make strategic decisions to run, strengthen and grow your business.”
