Packets provide definitive answers

The network is the only thing that connects all digital transactions. SteelCentral™ AppResponse delivers full stack application analysis—from packets to pages – letting you observe all network and application interactions as they cross the wire. Using powerful, flexible network and application analytics and workflows AppResponse speeds problem diagnosis and resolution, helping you get to answers fast.

Cloud ready

Available as an appliance, virtual machine, or AWS cloud-ready solution, SteelCentral AppResponse combines network forensics, application analytics, and end-user experience monitoring in a single solution. This means everything is at your fingertips when an issue arises, regardless of where it occurs in the network – data center, branch office, cloud or hybrid environment.

Modular design

Modular in design, SteelCentral AppResponse lets you select only the analysis capabilities you need:

Network forensics – Included with your appliance, it provides advanced packet analysis with 1-second granular displays, microsecond resolution, and deep packet inspection.
Application metrics – Continuously calculates all TCP and UDP metrics, including response time, and aggregates traffic by apps, users, servers, clients, etc. so you get fast answers about app performance without having to access the packets as often.
Web transaction analysis – Real-time monitoring of web transactions, it auto-discovers all URLs and end-user activity. View end-user experience for web pages as well as page errors, page rates, unique users, and more.
Database analysis – Monitors database transactions and user activity 24x7. It recognizes major SQL databases on all network addresses and ports and acquires database sessions, SQL queries, stats and timing info.
Unified Communications analysis – Real-time and historical analysis of voice and video call performance with the ability to drill into the underlying problem. Understand the interaction of voice and data traffic.

Reduce the finger pointing

Because AppResponse can be used by many roles within IT —NetOps, security, App Ops, IT management, and line of business—to reduce the finger-pointing. By using a common data set, all team members are on the same page when troubleshooting Sev-1 issues during cross-functional “tiger” team meetings. And, who knows, it might just eliminate them altogether!

AppResponse provides pre-defined, intelligent analysis and workflows that are functional right out of the box.

Customer Stories

n11.com embraces Riverbed to optimize site efficiency and maximize digital performance

In 2012, online accounted for just 3% of retail sales in Turkey, however, recently the country has been won over by online retail. Despite a struggling economy and the absence of some of e-commerce’s leading players, online sales continue to boom. Today, the central bank says 15% of credit card transactions are spent on e-commerce, and it expects this figure to rise to 25% in the next five years.

With the Riverbed SteelCentral solution, we were able to identify issues immediately. We had the visibility, the detail, and the technical insight necessary to address the problem. Previously we were sifting through 2Mb of data and over 100 variables. Now, if there is an issue, SteelCentral can identify the exact variable. It’s like two solutions in one.
