Production Edition

Increase Availability. Accelerate Release Cycles

Greater change requires greater preparedness

With application change inevitable, a modern strategy for availability is needed. Unlike other APM and BTM systems which focus on providing high level stats and metrics only, dynaTrace Production Edition starts with deep transaction pure details and correlates them with a number of other metrics from different layers in your application stack. In effect dynaTrace PE provides a continuous MRI of your entire application. Armed with this deep, accurate detail, a number of unique, high-value capabilities are gained.

Assure New Versions Are Ready for Production

Ever wonder how the new version compares to the one running smoothly in production? Ever wonder how much new runtime code is being introduced? With dynaTrace Production Edition, compare the new version to your current production version down to code-level. Filter comparisons by business transaction, method, or other parameter:

  • Application elements that are better/faster are represented in green.
  • Application elements that are worse/slower are red.
  • Sections of the application that are new or missing are grey.

Provide this visibility to software architects and performance specialists to assure architecture and code are optimized before you deploy to production.

Assure 3rd Party Applications Can Scale

Ever been told “everything’s been tested” only to find out too late that it was the application provider who did the testing? Assure 3rd party built applications are ready for prime time with dynaTrace Production Edition. Instrument and test applications during staging prior to going “live”. Architects, performance specialists and business owners can all access relevant views into the application’s runtime behavior:

  • Easily map business transactions for business users to assure SLA levels can be met under heavy loads.
  • Provide architects with a UML Sequence Diagram of the entire application, and Transaction Flow Map of all tiers and services end-to-end.
  • Provide performance specialists with automatic hotspot analyses across timings, CPU, memory and more.
  • Surface pre-defined incidents and errors that can restrict performance and compromise transaction integrity.
  • Provide your system architects with a runtime Transaction Flow Map displaying runtime application dependencies and logical topology.

Assuring the readiness of 3rd party applications may not be your responsibility, but whatever you deploy to production quickly does.

Know You Can Get To Root Cause In Minutes

Traditionally, production operators triage to major system components – network, server or application - and let other’s troubleshoot the problem. But today’s complex, highly distributed applications and intense business pressures require a new approach that requires teamwork to get to root-cause faster. dynaTrace Production Edition attacks these new requirements in several unique ways,

  • dynaTrace PE automatically correlates multiple layers of the application stack – application, guest OS, virtualization, host system details – making triage faster and more accurate,
  • dynaTrace PE automatically correlates a variety of application context including logs and memory heaps so that no extra effort is needed in collecting "more detail",
  • dynaTrace PE automatically captures all transactions that breach SLAs, performance thresholds or trip incident or error rules and stores them for rapid offline analysis by architects or performance specialists,
  • dynaTrace PE automatically analyses stored transactions and associated transaction detail to determine hotspots for faster root-cause analysis,
  • and dynaTrace PE provides a built-in collaboration system to facilitate troubleshooting teamwork between development groups and 3rd parties.

With dynaTrace PE operations can take a central role in assuring rapid root-cause resolution. You too can be a performance hero.
