The current version of DX APM continues a long history of innovation for APM technology. More than two decades ago, the solution was the pioneer in byte code instrumentation. DX APM is now a next-generation solution for today’s complex and hybrid enterprise environments. Figure 1: Broadcom’s DX APM has evolved from Wily Technology’s invention of byte code instrumentation-based APM, which was introduced in 1998.

Today, we are launching the newest feature of Broadcom’s Enterprise Software Academy: DX Unified Infrastructure Management (DX UIM) resource pages. DX UIM is redefining infrastructure management with full-stack observability, an open architecture, modern admin and operator consoles, and zero-touch configuration.

DX Unified Infrastructure Management (DX UIM) has more than 150 monitoring probes, which enables IT administrators to monitor everything from traditional mainframe servers to modern hybrid clouds running on a wide range of platforms and operating systems. Traditionally, a separate probe has been required to monitor each specific technology. That’s because the interface that retrieved monitoring metrics was either proprietary or technology specific.

When it comes to gaining control over complex distributed systems, there are many indicators of performance that we must understand. One of the secrets to understanding complicated systems is the use of additional cardinality within our metrics, which provides further information about our distributed systems’ overall health and performance. Developers rely on the telemetry captured from these distributed workloads to determine what really went wrong and place it in context.

IT workloads and the demands for IT services are increasing in today's digital world as organizations rely more and more on technology services in the hybrid workplace. Among the challenges: Don’t fret. You can vanquish these obstacles like the fearless and decisive IT leader you are when you get all of the awesomeness in the ServiceNow® IT Service Management (ITSM) solution, including the power of artificial intelligence (AI), chatbots, and analytics.

It’s no surprise that monitoring and managing networks in the financial services industry is a complex task with plenty of challenges. In addition to the “standard” networking requirements, like high availability and traffic capacity planning, IT in the finance industry has to deal with regulatory and industry-specific challenges that create even more issues to deal with.

Smart devices are everywhere nowadays, from refrigerators and coffee makers to security cameras and thermostats. A significant percentage of these Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are designed for consumers. However, they have also become a mainstay in various other fields, including healthcare, where their use has become prolific. The Internet-of-Medical-Things (IoMT) market has exploded in value, forecasted to reach approximately $158.1 billion by 2022, according to Deloitte.
