CHAPTER 1       Introduction to RTView Enterprise

Welcome to RTView© Enterprise, a monitoring system that provides single-pane-of-glass visibility of aggregated real-time and historical information about the performance of complex multi-tier applications, including custom-built applications.

The following figure illustrates the RTView© Enterprise Components tab Overview page.

 

RTView Enterprise has the ability to drill-down to the software-component level to help you determine the root cause of issues affecting application performance. RTView Enterprise (the Monitor) enables you to answer questions such as: Are any resources reaching a state of critical health? Do I need to allocate more memory to any resources? Are any having slow response times? Are application deadlocks causing bottlenecks anywhere? Is processing and connection load evenly distributed across resources?

RTView Enterprise enables application support teams to:

Provide a single, real-time interface to the end-to-end performance of complex or distributed applications.
Provide early warning of issues and automate corrective actions tied to alerts, to reduce the number of trouble tickets.
Leverage historical trends to anticipate possible application degradation and enable preventive care.
Quickly pinpoint the root cause of issues and initiate repair.
Reduce costs and minimize lost revenue related to system downtime and degradation.
Improve performance against SLAs, customer expectations and brand promises.
Improve business decisions that are tied to application performance.
Lower the total cost of managing applications.
