3 Topic A look at APM tools and how they fit into your monitoring strategy with Squared Up & SCOM. Discussion points: Overview of APM tools Comparison with existing tools Integrating APM into Squared Up

4 Setting the scene A team has developed a new key line of business application. They re hip, so they re using DevOps with Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD). They care about the performance of not just CPU/Memory/SQL but individual lines of code. As a high profile application, the boss wants to know if the app is up and what user experience is like in real time, and wants any issues quickly resolved.

5 The goal You want to provide your organisation with consistent, high quality monitoring capabilities across all applications. Application availability dashboards and uptime reporting End-to-end monitoring for issue management and root cause Detailed health and performance monitoring for all components

6 APM Overview Ideally suited for modern line of business web-apps written using terms like Agile, CD, Micro-services and other trendy concepts Gartner defined APM tools as: One or more software and hardware components that facilitate monitoring to meet five main functional dimensions End user experience monitoring (active and passive) Application runtime architecture discovery and modelling User-defined transaction profiling Component deep-dive monitoring in application context Reporting and data Analytics

8 How does APM compare with SCOM? User experience monitoring App discovery and modelling Transaction profiling Infrastructure monitoring Scale APM Tools Real user monitoring Synthetic user monitoring Browser (JS) performance and server response times Typically very strong support for mapping application components. Designed to trace transactions through network, code and database level. Increasing coverage of infrastructure monitoring. Typically priced and architected for per-app deployments. SCOM Synthetic user monitoring Server response times only Strong support for discovering all infrastructure in your environment. DAs and Squared Up VADA for app modelling. Not a feature of SCOM. Core strength is broad coverage of many enterprise platforms, extended via MPs. Priced and architected for whole environment deployments.

9 One or the other? If you have APM tools, do you need SCOM? If you have SCOM, do you need to use APM tools? A good fit for APM tools: High profile (business critical) applications that are sensitive to user experience Applications with active development teams Cloud-first apps A good fit for SCOM: All of your other applications: third-party apps, legacy apps, non-critical apps In some cases, best-of-both hybrid approach: User experience, transaction and code level monitoring of APM Full-stack infrastructure and environment monitoring of SCOM
