AppDynamics Advanced Support for Hybrid Cloud Environments Built Using Microsoft Azure

AppDynamics announced advanced support for monitoring digital businesses in real-time in hybrid cloud environments built using Microsoft Azure, which is available via AppDynamics Exchange.

The world’s largest enterprises can accelerate their digital transformations by enhancing application and business monitoring with AppDynamics on Azure platforms.

As enterprises in every industry digitally transform their businesses to meet modern consumers' demands, AppDynamics is bolstering its role as a digital accelerator in that process with the expanded Azure support. AppDynamics gives enterprises the confidence to deploy digital solutions for business-critical functions knowing that they have uninterrupted, end-to-end visibility across public, private and hybrid cloud environments. With AppDynamics Application Performance Management powered by the App iQ Platform, enterprises have flexibility to cost-effectively deploy and manage application workloads and the digital businesses built on them.

This latest milestone builds on AppDynamics’ existing support for .NET, Azure and Azure Marketplace, while providing new capabilities for Azure Web Apps and enhanced integration with Azure Marketplace.

“In the digital economy, cloud technology is powering the applications that have become core to companies’ ability to deliver the experience customers demand,” said Bhaskar Sunkara, cofounder and CTO, AppDynamics. “The best companies run the best technology. And through this new collaboration with Microsoft, the world’s largest enterprises can use Azure’s platform across hybrid cloud environments with business and application performance assured by AppDynamics.”

Steve Guggenheimer, Corporate VP and Chief Evangelist, Microsoft Corp. said, “Our enterprise customers’ needs are at the forefront of how we innovate. As companies move more workloads to the cloud, their need for environment-specific performance monitoring increases. AppDynamics offers our customers enterprise scale performance monitoring to provide the insights they need to drive their digital transformation in our public cloud environment or our hybrid environments to enhance their existing investments.”

AppDynamics is working with Microsoft to integrate AppDynamics’ offerings with the newest Azure capabilities announced at Microsoft Ignite in September — Azure Monitoring and Azure Resource Manager — to provide the deepest visibility up and down the application stack, including all Azure resources correlated with the application experience and the business results they support. This integration will be enabled through a simple template that will be available to customers via one-click access in Azure Marketplace.
