Technical Monitoring and Alerting Capabilities in Detail

Unified Alert Inbox• Central access point for all alert coming from the different monitoring scenarios

• Integration of Incident & Notification Management, Root-cause Analysis and collaboration features

System Monitoring• Status overview for technical systems, instances, databases and hosts• Drill down to single metrics and events, Jump in to metric reporting and landscape information

End User Experience Monitoring• Measurement of availability and response times from an End User perspective

• Deep integration in E2E Trace Analysis for Root-cause Analysis

Process Integration Monitoring• Central entry point for SAP Process Integration specific monitoring for complete PI domains

• Contains central monitors for PI components, PI channels and Message flows

Business Intelligence Monitoring• Central monitoring for SAP Business Intelligence solutions based on SAP BW and BOE XI

• Monitoring of SAP Business Warehouse process chains and Business Objects specific jobs

Connection Monitoring• Active Monitoring of RFC and HTTP connections between SAP Systems



What is End User Experience

Monitoring?




Usecase: Proactive Monitoring – EEM never sleeps

real user observation




Usecase: Stop Fingerpointing

Customer

Local Network

Global

Networks

Local IT

Central IT

What EEM can do:

• EEM helps to locate and quantify an issue

‒ Is it related to a specific business scenario?

‒ Is it related to specific location?

‒ Is there a dynamic issue?

•The integrated E2E trace analysis discovers the

root cause

The Symptome: „Nobody is

interested to solve an issue as

long as he believe the rootcause maybe located in

another department .“




Usecase: Reliable SLA Reporting from End User Perspe

An user thinks in a blackbox model: „My

business process“. It simply has to

work, how ever it works!

Nobody can define generic, comparable

metrics for all components of a technical

scenario.

Nobody is interested in technical details

at deeper level on customer side.

Measurement from end user perspective

implicitly includes all relevant

components without the need to define

them in detail End User Experience M




Usecase: Catch and analyze a rare performance issue

The issue was caught by EEM and

performance traces were executed

automatically.

Details pointing to server side first and

showing finally an issue on the DB
