dynaTrace announced it will be shipping the third generation of its application performance management tool.
ebizQ received the following:
dynaTrace Software, a provider of continuous application performance management across the lifecycle for business critical Java and .NET applications, announced the release of dynaTrace 3. dynaTrace says its solution is used by more than 100 companies to monitor, diagnose, and prevent performance issues across the full lifecycle - development, test and production.
dynaTrace 3 introduces a broad range of new features designed to address the new technical requirements of managing application performance for large, globally-deployed SOA, Java and .Net applications. dynaTrace is also introducing three new fully integrated product editions, built on a common platform, designed to meet the unique needs of the different stakeholders in the application lifecycle.
"With dynaTrace 3 we're building on our unique strength, always-on business-to-code-level transaction tracing under production load. We're not only deepening our diagnostic capabilities but extending them to scale globally," said dynaTrace Founder/CTO Bernd Greifeneder. "We're extending our leadership position as the best Java and .NET diagnostics solution in the industry by building in open source integration, and automation features across the lifecycle to help significantly reduce costs and expensive, labor-intensive processes, enabling our customers to do more with less in these challenging economic times."
As companies continue to develop and deploy more sophisticated enterprise SOA, Java and .NET applications across the globe, the requirements for APM solutions have significantly expanded. dynaTrace 3 is designed to meet the new demands of performance management across the full application lifecycle.
Among the new features are global transaction tracing with deep diagnostics for Java and .NET applications - now developers, test and production operators can trace business transactions across geographically distributed applications to find and prevent performance issues before they happen -- 24x7 performance management for the most demanding environments - dynaTrace scales across large server clusters and virtualized environments to meet the growing demands of your changing production environments.
The solution also includes advanced automation, part of integration into popular build systems and automated problem documentation enables users to eliminate manual, labor intensive costs.
A new OSGi/open source based plug-in model, combined with SOAP and JMX management interfaces enable companies to rapidly integrate dynaTrace with a company's existing systems saving time and money while preserving existing investments.
"In many enterprises, CEOs have now realized that the quality of IT services is a major business component and differentiator. This has changed the application performance management landscape," wrote Jean-Pierre Garbani of Forrester Research. "The accent is now on application quality and IT efficiency. This is pushing traditional application performance management to encompass the complete lifecycle from pre-production tuning to deployment to production monitoring."
dynaTrace 3 is introducing three integrated editions of the product specifically tailored to the needs of development, test and production. A Development Edition provides development teams with deep visibility into the dynamic behavior of their distributed software architectures for proactive analysis and tuning during development. Integration with popular IDE's and build environments such as Ant, NAnt and MSBuild detects performance regressions early and provides continuous test metrics. With this edition, companies can now make performance management a strategic component of the development process. Developers can find and fix performance issues sooner saving time, money and resources.
A Test Center Edition integrates dynaTrace with major commercial and open source load testing solutions such as LoadRunner, SilkPerformer, Visual Studio Team System and JMeter to eliminate manual problem reproduction and to rapidly diagnose Java/.NET issues with code level performance diagnostics. With this edition, test professionals can dramatically reduce the time spent finding, reproducing and documenting performance issues, resulting in reduced testing cycles and higher quality test results. This increases test center productivity enabling more applications to be tested in less time while also increasing test coverage.
A Production Edition provides production teams the most advanced application performance management solution including 24x7 business transaction management, always on global code-level transaction tracing with deep-dive diagnostics, and application discovery and dependency mapping while enabling remote developers to rapidly diagnose and resolve issues. With this edition, production IT professionals can pin-point performance issues immediately, provide detailed issue documentation to development and reduce mean-time-to-repair by 90%. All three editions are built on a common platform and shared data system based on dynaTrace's patent-pending PurePath technology. When used together, customers have an integrated APM solution across the full application lifecycle.

A lot of people are talking about Enterprise 2.0 as being the business application of Web 2.0 technology. However, there's still some debate on exactly what this technology entails, how it applies to today's business models, and which components bring true value. Some use the term Enterprise 2.0 exclusively to describe the use of social networking technologies in the enterprise, while others use it to describe a web economy platform, or the technological framework behind such a platform. Still others say that Enterprise 2.0 is all of these things. Learn More
