Why Change? We Have Monitoring!
 Monitoring is almost always siloed; Little to no
context or correlation of alerts and metrics
 Ability to create a single pane of glass view to see
application and alerts from end to end
 Must complement your current monitoring ability to
surface data from many sources to that single pane
of glass
Why do we need more?

Application Complexity Is Driving New Needs
 New monitoring requirements
– Event Analysis
– Bottleneck Analysis
– Capacity Planning
– End to End Performance Metrics
– Application Specific Alerts
Combine infrastructure and application insights into a single solution

Infrastructure Monitoring Approach in The Past
 Siloed & reactive monitoring
 No real ownership of the monitoring tools
 Lack of insights into user experience
 Needed to adopt end to end and a proactive approach
 Monitoring tools included CA eHealth®, CA Spectrum and
Microsoft SCOM
History & Key Challenges
