Performance and Stability Optimization for .NET
Applications

|
Are your applications based on Microsoft Windows
Servers? Do your mission-critical production applications run
on MS Windows 2003 AS? Do your applications operate within a
service-orientated architecture (SOA) based on the Microsoft .NET
Framework for encapsulating your business processes? Are you
also pursuing consistent Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) to
promote the common, unified operation of your previously isolated
applications? Ensuring optimal performance and stability in distributed
application systems like this 7x24 is a challenge for all IT
organizations. Conventional diagnostic tools quickly reach their limits
under these types of conditions, and the manual (or even
semi-automated) analysis of enormous log files does not deliver the
required results.
It is with this in mind that
dynaTrace Diagnostics®
takes a quantum leap forward by delivering the next generation solution
for the management of application performance 7x24 and the precise
diagnosis of performance and stability problems. dynaTrace Diagnostics
quickly shows you exactly where the problems in your applications are
and how you can fix them.
PurePath Technology® provides deep insights into your applications
dynaTrace Diagnostics can deliver deep transparency into the applications to be analyzed.
Using PurePath Technology it enables an efficient root
cause analysis of application performance problems down to the offending lines of source code
running inside the CLR. This empowers IT teams to know immediately where application problems
are and how to correct them, regardless of whether C#, VB.NET, J# source codes or others, in any
combination, are employed.
Extensive support for .NET Technologies
dynaTrace Diagnostics analyzes applications based on all popular MS .NET technologies, such as ASP.NET,
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and ADO.NET, even if they are hosted using COM+ Component Services.
Even calls to Java servers are analyzed in an integrated fashion using its support for heterogeneous applications.
dynaTrace Diagnostics supports all shipping versions of the
.NET Framework, from .NET 1.1 to 2.0 and even the newest version, .NET
3.0. Server platform support is also wide and deep, with support for
Windows 2000, XP or Windows 2003 server.
Integration with Visual Studio
To further simplify problem resolution, dynaTrace Diagnostics directly integrates with Microsoft Visual Studio
through its CodeLink plug-in. Once dynaTrace Diagnostics has identified a certain source code fragment as the root cause of a particular problem,
developers can directly jump from the dynaTrace Diagnostics Client to the exact location within their Visual Studio
development environment where they need to apply the necessary changes. This replaces the time and hassle often
required to locate the right classes and methods within the source code with a single click.
