Application performance monitoring (APM) is the practice of tracking key software application performance metrics using monitoring software and telemetry data. Practitioners use APM to ensure system availability, optimize service performance and response times, and improve user experiences.
However, monitoring the performance of applications, is fraught with challenges:
- Complexity of modern applications that are distributed across various environments, like cloud, on-premises, and hybrid models.
- Ensuring visibility into the performance of microservices and containerized applications.
- Integrating with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines for DevOps agility.
- Correlating data across various sources to pinpoint performance issues
In the case of voice and video applications, legacy tools used to measure packet loss, latency, and jitter metrics reveal the symptoms of a problem but fail to identify the root cause. Network Operations teams must become detectives, manually correlating data points with network-layering monitoring tools.
LiveAction helps solve root cause by providing complete visibility into infrastructure and transport context from various data sources, including policies, packets, flows, and DPI-enhanced telemetry. With LiveAction, IT teams understand application performance on a deeper level that goes beyond traditional latency, loss, and jitter metrics, confidently monitoring and optimizing their networks without any guesswork.
