AppDynamics brings in Application Analytics for Businesses

AppDynamics has announced AppDynamics Application Analytics, its powerful new solution that provides real-time IT operations and business operations intelligence from across distributed application environments.

Application Analytics automatically collects meaningful data in its business context from the entire application stack, no matter how complex or distributed. This data with business context enables IT not only to manage IT operations, but also to provide business units with vital metrics they can use to optimize user engagement, conversion, and ultimately, revenue. It is a true big data analytics platform that enables stakeholders to instantly analyze transactions, manage performance, and determine current and potential impact across the business in real time.  

Application Analytics captures raw business data from every line of code in all layers of an application and across every single node, without requiring code changes or additional infrastructure. There is no need for coding, as is required to collect data from log files. And unlike data warehousing, which can only provide historical snapshots of completed transactions, Application Analytics provides an up-to-the-minute, real-time view into transactions that are in flight.

The solution is easy to deploy and massively scalable, capable of handling a trillion metrics daily.
“Application Analytics addresses the biggest data challenges enterprises face today – volume, velocity and variety. Huge volumes of data are being generated at a blinding speed, and it is coming from every direction – the cloud, different devices, and complex application infrastructures. But it is just so much noise if it can’t be efficiently harvested and parsed. That is what Application Analytics does. With the lens of business context, no matter how fast the data comes at you, it quickly makes sense, and gives a basis for smart, insightful decision-making,” said Jyoti Bansal, Founder & CEO, AppDynamics.

With a solution that is easy to deploy and massively scalable, and capable of handling a trillion metrics daily, Application Analytics enables IT operations to gain intelligence faster than ever before, seeing errors, slowdowns, and outages in real time. Armed with this data, business and IT can collaborate and act quickly to minimize business impact. At the same time, the data it captures can be used to engage those users who have been negatively impacted to mitigate any negative brand impact.
