New Generation Software Performance Measurement and Optimization

Long response time is one of the most disturbing problems that can cause significant damages for businesses (losses in revenue, negative effects on market judgement as well as increasing IT and HR costs) on top of the frustration.

Network-monitoring and error detecting tools have developed alongside with the network technologies, but the system management solutions couldn’t keep up as the application architectures became more and more complex (virtualization, cloud computing, micro services for example).

Earlier when INITON’s experts had been asked to solve performance problems, they needed to know the source code and measuring the different components’’ running times were time-consuming.

We have applied the Dynatrace Application Monitoring solution in our related works in the telecommunication and the energy sector and we have gathered excellent results. With the use of this new generation tool, we have performed end-to-end measurements in productive environments ranging from the user’s browser to the database’s layer without disrupting normal operations. We have also managed to analyze processes running in virtual machines (Java as well as .NET). We were able to define the necessary changes that had to be made without accessing the source code.

As a result of the contribution of our experts, significant performance improvements had been obtained.
