Shunra Software's network virtualization capabilities will be incorporated into Perfecto Mobile’s MobileCloud Performance solution.
Webinar: Unveiling Mobile Performance Testing on Real Devices
The end-to-end mobile testing solution provides the only hosted environment for remote manual testing, functional automation testing and performance testing of mobile applications on real devices with real network conditions.
“Mobile apps too often fail to meet user’s performance expectations,” said Bill Varga, Shunra COO. “This results in lost revenue, decreased productivity and brand damage, all of which could be avoided with more accurate and reliable testing. This OEM agreement is further evidence that considering network conditions, particularly last mile conditions, is critical to ensuring end user experience. Incorporating Shunra’s network virtualization capabilities enables Perfecto Mobile to deliver a mobile app testing environment on real mobile devices that can precisely emulate the production network conditions that most impact app performance, making test results highly reliable.”
MobileCloud Performance users can access real devices for their mobile app testing requirements, and virtualize production network conditions, such as bandwidth, latency, jitter and packet loss, in order to reliably understand the impact of the mobile network on user experience.
With Shunra’s network virtualization capabilities embedded in their solution, developers and testers can:
- Emulate different end user locations and network conditions in order to validate transaction response times before deployment
- Aggregate multiple test results into a single database for location-specific performance analysis
- Extend functional testing without the need to write additional scripts
- Produce packet capture files that can be used in HP LoadRunner to automate mobile app script generation
- Automate performance testing, validation and optimization efforts before deploying to production
Eran Yaniv, Perfecto Mobile CEO,said: “As our customers continue to develop and deploy mobile apps and services, they are able to speed time-to-market by accessing the latest mobile handsets and tablets via the Internet. Our partnership with Shunra enables us to provide our customers with a full continuum of performance engineering technology, providing them with even greater confidence in the user experience they are delivering.”
The agreement equips MobileCloud Performance with network capture and virtualization capabilities, access to a global library of mobile network conditions, and enhanced analysis capabilities.
Shunra’s embedded analytics and optimization capabilities also extend Perfecto Mobile’s reporting with:
- Comprehensive performance test analysis reports that include location-specific performance information, automatic identification of poorly performing business transactions and root cause performance issue information
- A performance scorecard that automatically grades application performance and provides optimization suggestions that have been shown to improve performance by over 40%

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...
In MEAN TIME TO INSIGHT Episode 23, Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research, Network Infrastructure and Operations, at EMA discusses the NetOps labor shortage ...
Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...
