Riverbed Technology announced the launch of Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals 10, an Application Performance Management (APM) solution that helps IT teams take control of application performance in their evolving hybrid IT environments.
SteelCentral AppInternals 10 has been re-designed from the ground up. It can be set up in minutes and its modern, web-based, interactive dashboard can be accessed on computers, tablets, and smartphones – no special skills are required to set up and operate.
SteelCentral AppInternals 10 monitors applications on and off the cloud to provide end-to-end performance visibility and powerful analytics that help IT improve application performance, user experience, and business impact. SteelCentral AppInternals 10 traces every transaction from end-user device or browser to the application backend, while capturing second-by-second system metrics in production environments. These capabilities provide the most accurate perspectives into the end user experience, user demographics, and application performance, along with convenient workflows for root cause analysis. Further, IT can proactively improve performance by analyzing billions of metrics using simple queries to discover bugs and deliver business insights.
SteelCentral AppInternals solves visibility and control challenges to facilitate superior application performance across the hybrid enterprise. It monitors and stores a record of every end-to-end transaction along with its associated system metrics and call trees including parameters, URLs, user information, and remote calls. This ‘big data’ based approach allows IT to quickly and easily reconstruct incidents in great detail, measure impact, and identify and eliminate root causes before users notice. IT is rarely more than two clicks away from an answer when performance issues begin to appear.
SteelCentral AppInternals does not limit IT to preset workflows that encourage fixing problems after major slowdowns or outages. With SteelCentral AppInternals 10, IT can discover anomalies, measure business impact, plan for capacity, and continuously improve performance. On demand analytics, using simple “and”/“or” queries promotes proactive performance improvement and avoids reactive firefighting.
SteelCentral AppInternals 10 integrates with Riverbed SteelCentral Portal, which provides end-to-end performance visibility and analytics across end-users, applications, networks, and infrastructure. This combination provides a complete picture and changes the way IT domain teams work together to resolve performance issues.
“With the launch of the completely redesigned SteelCentral AppInternals 10, along with the recent release of the all new SteelCentral Portal, we are delivering the richest, most comprehensive visibility and diagnostic capabilities to manage application performance across today’s hybrid enterprise,” said Mike Sargent, SVP and GM of SteelCentral at Riverbed. “We’re also breaking the ease-of-use barrier — eliminating the need for a Ph.D. in APM to diagnose issues that quickly impact the business. AppInternals’ combination of comprehensive analytics and ease-of-use is unmatched by any other vendor. Furthermore, through the integration between AppInternals and SteelCentral Portal, we are extending visibility beyond the app into the network to deliver a complete picture of performance. This will fundamentally change the way teams collaborate to address performance issues going forward.”
