Performance Transparency is Critical for Delivering Digital Transformation
89% of enterprises have adopted or plan to adopt a digital-first strategy (IDG, 2018 State of Digital Business Transformation). Clearly, we are in an era of digital transformation, but how do you know if these initiatives deliver? Can we deliver them rapidly? Do they perform the way they are supposed to? Are there problems which cause slowdown or outages?
Performance visibility can be difficult with today’s complex IT environments and applications, which often span traditional data centers, third-party hosting facilities, branch offices, mobile devices, and SaaS and IaaS-based clouds. When companies take traditional, siloed approaches to manage these environments, they often have a fragmented, incomplete view of performance. As a result, IT engineers spend a lot of time analyzing data and metrics but arrive at different and often conflicting conclusions on the cause of performance problems.
