“The Precise Software stack is the leader in the Application Performance Management space. Continental Resource customers are solving problems at the root of the issue now, eliminating the path of speculation as to what might have caused performance delays in their environment.”

The Precise Approach
IT has monitors for everything, but the fact is you can’t solve problems by watching them more intensely. Traditional approaches to Application Performance Management focus on technology silo monitoring and alerting for infrastructure problems, with no linkage to business impact. Problems still arise. Business is still impacted. The application performance problem is still unsolved.
Customers experience applications one transaction at a time. Ensuring the performance of each and every transaction requires a fresh perspective in application performance management that moves beyond the silo-based approaches of the past.
Introducing Transaction Performance Management.
- Transparency. Transparency means more than a dashboard. Transparency is a common language between business and IT to provide shared insight into performance problems and accelerate their resolution. Precise uses a Common Transaction Model to give business and IT the ability to clearly see where critical transactions spend time and how well they are performing against business expectations, providing a whole new perspective on your complex infrastructure.
- Resolution. No more needle in the haystack. Most of IT time is spent on chasing the solution to problems. Precise helps IT drill into the transaction path to see detailed root-cause information to solve performance problems quickly. Precise’s automated knowledge-base identifies a list of suspects causing the slowdown, recommends corrective actions, and presents “what-if” impact scenarios of those corrective actions to further reduce mean time to repair.
- Prevention. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. The more problems you can avoid, the more time your team has to focus on other strategic projects. Precise TPM accelerates the mean time to repair for problems you have today, and reduces the number of problems your team will need to face going forward. Precise’s Performance Warehouse aggregates transaction performance data so IT can identify intermittent or seasonal trends to prevent transaction performance problems before they ever impact the end user. Performance Warehouse data can also be used to assess the impact of configuration changes prior to deployment.
