The latest News and Information on Application Performance Monitoring and related technologies.
So your organization has decided to move to the cloud. Smart move! Many companies today are either making the move to the cloud or have already made it. According to RightScale’s 2019 State of the Cloud Survey, 94% of IT professionals say their companies use the cloud. Over 90% is public cloud. Gartner predicts that public cloud revenue will increase by 17% in 2020. The biggest percentage increase is expected with IaaS. So, you’re clearly not alone.
With the advent of the cloud and microservices, application architectures have become complex, and monitoring their performance is critical in protecting your business' bottom line. To troubleshoot performance problems quickly and achieve a reduced mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to resolve (MTTR), the use of an application performance monitoring (APM) tool is invaluable.
During development, it's important to think about how your application will work with your databases. You can run into performance issues all the way through the stack, so you'll want to be mindful of how the data is being accessed. From the client to the database, there are layers where trouble may creep in.
CAI stands for Continuous Application Improvement. It is a software improvement process that is implemented at each step of the SDLC, ensuring immediate feedback at each step rather than waiting till risk levels and impact has gone up. When you implement CAI you shift your improvement process as far left as possible and you catch software bugs and performance problems where they are introduced, eliminating countless hours of time spent chasing issues.
