Leveraging Applications Manager for full stack application performance observability
Comments: Applications Manager's full stack observability in a single plane simplifies monitoring by quickening incident response with their root cause analysis feature. With our distributed architecture for our business applications, Applications Manager was able to provide a single pane to view the different metrics and attribute status of the entire environment. Starting monitoring from the infrastructure servers where the applications are installed, you can review resource utilization, to the respective application technologies like databases where you can get notified immediately if a specific scheduled job fails to run, and the web apps and app servers, finally to the actual end user experience where you can confirm the service delivery to the end user through synthetic and transactional monitoring. Applications Manager provides all this visibility which brings application performance monitoring to the next level
Pros:
Support for the full stack monitoring and also readily available templates for different technologies which simplifies onboarding and monitoring. Transactional monitoring with APM Insight which fully monitors any activity going through your application and shares important insights and metrics which are a clear indicator of the application performance.
Cons:
Failure to support monitoring for ATM related attributes like cash trays details. We can easily monitor ATM availability but cannot pick up on details like tray jams, or empty trays.
