SCOM surged forward as an application performance management (APM) tool this summer. It received a Customers’ Choice 2018 award from Gartner in the APM category. SCOM shared the honour with AppDynamics, Dynatrace, New Relic and Solarwinds. I see you thinking – how did this happen? Well, more than 50 reviewers gave SCOM an average rating of 4.2, which means it met Gartner’s criteria to win the award.
As my fellow CIOs are well aware, the rapid changes to our digital economy can seem daunting. Despite the challenges of our digital world, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchisor, executed a significant digital transformation requiring change from our North American hotel owners that ultimately enabled them to provide better service to their guests.
With the TLS connection improvements there was also another bug with hanging TLS connections unveiled. Turns out, this has been sitting there since 2.8.2 and not only affects JSON-RPC cluster connections but also HTTP request sessions, as being used inside the Director kickstart wizard for example. Tom is working on a fix for Director 1.6 in order to support older Icinga 2 versions too.

At AppDynamics, we frequently talk about how insights derived from application performance metrics can help achieve favorable business outcomes. It’s easy to imagine how this would be the case with a slow e-commerce application or full-blown outage, but there are many other use cases that don’t readily come to mind.
I had a wonderful time at IT Nation 2018 last week, getting to know many of you at the OnPage booth and during networking breaks. I also learned so much from the breakout sessions, not only from the knowledgeable speakers who shared ideas, best practices and experiences out in the field but also from the audience questions. Presentations are so much more valuable when there’s a lot of interaction!
Today, around 20% of total applications in a large to medium size enterprise are cloud-native. Assuming 10% cannot be moved to Cloud, there are roughly 70% apps still sitting in a Data Center. CIOs are mandating these 70% apps to be moved to cloud. Application migration to the cloud is either manual or automated. Manual takes time and effort to make changes to the code and deploying them on cloud (after testing it inside out).
