Why are IT Organizations Failing To Find Problems Before Users?
• Increasing complexity of application environments
• Web servers, DB servers, app servers, identity servers…
• UNIX, Linux, Windows, J2EE, and .NET…
• Systems, apps, storage, switches, accelerators, optimizers…
• LAN, WAN, VLAN, internal, external…
• Results vary by time, day, function, and location
• Organizations have multiple tools – few are integrated or
provide real end-user insight
• More complex integrations: users, customers, partners,
suppliers, international
MANAGING PERFORMANCE BLINDSPOTS
But What Does it Really Take?
How do you really manage
these crazy, dynamic, and complex applications?
Be Paranoid Be Smart Be Lazy
You have to be three things at once…
1. Be Paranoid = Watch Every Transaction from Every User

Watch Every Transaction from Every User
2. Be smart = understand what is happening across the space-time continuum
Look Across Time
Look Across Space
Understand the Needs of the Many
…or the One
3. Be Lazy = set SLAs. Get an SMS when there is a problem. No matter how complex.
Enforce SLAs on End-User Experience
%SLA tells you how many individual
invocations violated the response time SLA
