Performance monitoring is critical for a healthy software application. If you don’t have synthetic testing or real user monitoring in place, opportunities for performance optimizations are slipping through the cracks. With the guidance of a monitoring tool, on the other hand, you could be fixing problems such as slow-loading pages within the hour. The two main types of application monitoring are Real User Monitoring (RUM) and synthetic testing (or synthetic monitoring).

After the global pandemic and lockdowns, most businesses look onward to online solutions for their applications. They want to take their business online by creating mobile or web applications. Companies are looking to monitor every aspect of the application, including deployment, bugs, API failures, etc. But the most important thing is how the application behaves when it goes into the hands of the end-users.

Happy New Year 2022! In 2021, Exoprise’s critical focus was on improving its product for monitoring digital experiences and mobilizing internal teams to improve customer adoption and SaaS/network experiences everywhere. As Covid continues to dominate the world, IT and business teams are increasingly looking for solutions like Exoprise Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) to ensure end-users are productive with a seamless work-from-home experience.

Debugging errors is an essential component to SRE and developer workflows. “How do we prioritize and isolate JavaScript errors more effectively?” is a top challenge we hear from engineering teams looking to improve end-user experience. Therefore, we are excited to announce the general availability of Splunk RUM frontend error monitoring.

Real User Monitoring (RUM) has been providing valuable insights into real user experiences for many years. It’s not every day that we see a new player enter the market, but last week we did, and a very powerful player at that – Amazon. Real User Monitoring for Amazon CloudWatch was announced at AWS re:Invent 2021, adding to their existing suite of over 200 products and services. As you can imagine, our ears perked up at this announcement and we’re eager to take a look.

Real User Monitoring (RUM) provides visibility into the performance experience of live users interacting with your web, mobile, or single-page apps. RUM tools emerged to bridge the gap between application performance metrics and the impact on real people. These days, user experience is increasingly factored into the development process, but that still doesn’t stop slowdowns.

In the first post of this two-part series, we talked about the need to fully understand how users experience your website. Without understanding how your end users interact with your site’s pages—what’s working for them and what’s not—you’d be optimizing on a hunch without solid data to guide you.

Technology environments are rapidly evolving as organizations look to remain competitive, accelerate innovation and make themselves more agile. But in the process, many of the observers, i.e., stakeholders who track infrastructure and application metrics, are falling behind, unable to monitor and manage modern, cloud-native apps and multi-cloud environments due to the complexity that comes with them.
