Applicaton Response Time Analysis Challenges
Today’s networked applications are the essential ingredients of business operations, enabling competitive advantage, communication, and efficient processes. When application performance degrades, the business itself suffers. However, response time alone does not provide insight into the environment surrounding performance. The network is home to many applications that compete for resources and impact one another. To proactively manage business services and effectively troubleshoot poor response time network managers need to see the context surrounding performance in order to determine whether other network activity is a contributing factor.
Analyze Application Response Time with the NetScout Solution
Response time analysis is delivered as an integral component of the nGenius® Service Assurance Solution. Superior to other implementations, the nGenius approach provides the flexibility to observe response time analysis in context with the potential reasons behind the degradations. This context and flexibility provide an understanding of the performance of the entire system in which the applications reside, aiding in performance analysis, troubleshooting and capacity planning.
The nGenius® Service Assurance Solution assure that end users have access to the services they need in order to meet business goals by providing the following capabilities:
- Measure application response time in order to understand the quality of the application services being delivered to end users
- Receive notification of developing performance problems so they can be addressed before service levels are breached or end users notice
- Quickly get to the source of a service delivery problem by understanding all network activity surrounding response time
- Troubleshoot performance degradations in real time or using back-in-time forensic analysis
- Validate and optimize the performance of critical applications and services by understanding how resources are being consumed
