APM Challenges for DevOps

• We are going faster!

• App delivery is more complex

• False alarms

• Root cause

• Big data

Challenge #1: We are going faster!

Challenge #2: complexity

• Modern modularized webscale architecture

• Virtualization

• Cloud

• 3rd party APIs and components

• Support for multitude of devices and networks

Challenge #3: time to find root cause

Identify – Fix – Test - Deploy

Challenge #4: False alarms

Challenge #5: Big Data

Dashboard Overload!!!

We need some power tools!

The Power of Analytics

• Automatic

• Reduce false alarms

• Root causes isolation

• Identifying problems earlier

• Awareness of unknown failures

Risk Reduction

It’s automatic!

adjective

1. (of a device or process) working by itself with little or no direct human control.

"an automatic kettle that switches itself off when it boils"synonyms: mechanized, mechanical, automated, computerized, electronic, robotic;

Reduce false alarms

Root cause isolation

Awareness of unknown failures

Identifying problems earlier

Analytics are a safety system

CA APM ABA Goes Beyond Single Metric MonitoringOne-of-a-kind Advanced Statistical Engine to Detect Anomalies

• Automatically configures to eliminate errors

• Instantly starts determining what’s “normal”

• Processes 100,000 multi-variant metrics

• Provides metrics in 15-second intervals

• Intelligent pattern matching shows you how

one item impacts another item

FULLY INTEGRATED INTO THE APM USER EXPERIENCE

Automatically Configures & Starts Working

Application Behavior Analytics (ABA) is INCLUDED with upgrade to v9.5 or higher

• Automatically configures to easily install and

eliminate chance of errors

• Instantly starts learning what’s “normal” in

your app environment

• Anomaly Detection process 100,000 multi-

variant metrics per 15-second interval in real-

• Intelligent pattern matching shows you how

changes in one metric may affect changes in

other metric(s)

• Fast, easy, root cause analysis to find problems

BEFORE they impact users

Redefine Triage With Operational IntelligenceAnalytic compute power automatically finds metrics to help you act decisively

ABA: A Different Type of Analysis

• Takes multiple data sources

• Analyzes in aggregate

• Fully integrated into APM user experience

• Available with APM 9.5 at no charge

Cracking the Code on APM Big DataApplication Behavior Analytics Part of an Integrated Solution

• It’s all about the application users

• Solve problems before they impact users

• Thresholds & Single Metrics Approach drives

the “blame game”

• ABA uses multi-variate metrics, auto config &

pattern matching.

• Over 1000 large Enterprises use CA APM
