Data and Database Management Software
Software analyzes large-scale, e-business applications.
Press Release Summary:
WebSphere® Studio Application Monitor for Multiplatforms enables users to determine problems and analyze performance of enterprise J2EE applications running on WebSphere Application Server platform. It monitors heterogeneous environments, providing high-level and detailed views of transactions, in real-time, without modification of application byte code. It also captures and stores resource utilization data at transactional level to analyze historical trends and plan for future growth.
Original Press Release:
IBM WebSphere Studio Application Monitor for Multiplatforms, V2.2 Helps to Analyze Application Performance and Assess Requirements for Future Growth
Overview
The Java(TM) 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) platform is increasingly
adopted by organizations to support e-business applications. This adoption is frequently accompanied by a set of challenges related to monitoring and ensuring application health. While J2EE provides a rich environment for defining business
logic, complex interactions between distributed, multitiered,
object-oriented applications pose a difficult management problem.
WebSphere® Studio Application Monitor (WSAM) for Multiplatforms
enables customers to perform in-depth problem determination and
performance analysis of mission-critical enterprise J2EE
applications running on the WebSphere Application Server platform. The technology allows enterprises to open up the Java
"black box" to see what is specifically happening within the
applications, as well as track and analyze their performance and
resource consumption patterns over time. WSAM is a lifecycle tool that can be used in development, test, and production.
WSAM monitors heterogeneous environments and provides both
high-level and detailed views of transactions, in real-time, without requiring the modification of application byte code. WSAM also captures and stores resource utilization data at a transactional level, to help the IT staff analyze historical trends and plan for future capacity growth.
WSAM for Multiplatforms consists of two components:
o A central managing server that monitors individual or groups of applications, generates operational performance alerts,
stores all performance and availability metrics in a database,
and manages software levels.
o Data collectors that are installed on the WebSphere Application Servers being monitored. Data collectors are available for WebSphere on AIX®, HP-UX, Solaris, and Microsoft(TM)
Windows(TM) 2000.
Data collectors for the WebSphere Application Server on z/OS® and for the CICS® Transaction Server are available as separate products.
Planned availability date
o August 10, 2004 (electronic software delivery)
o September 3, 2004 (media and documentation)
At a glance
WebSphere Studio Application Monitor (WSAM) for Multiplatforms
enables application developers, application analysts, and quality assurance personnel to:
o Monitor and analyze the behavior of large-scale e-business applications
o Quickly take corrective actions to resolve problems
o Assess resource consumption and plan for future capacity
o Deliver a non-intrusive solution that does not require modifications to the application code
