Continuous Innovation=Industry Recognition
![Page 4: Angelbeat -Cut Your Troubleshooting_Time-In-Half](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062400/58a75c001a28ab217e8b5011/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Application Performance is Critical
• Validating network and infrastructure health is
only the first step
o Network and operation teams need more
o Layers 2 through 7 must all be monitored
• Users interact with services and applications
o Email, Web, Databases
o VoIP, Video, ERP, EMR

What is the IT Challenge?
• Applications and infrastructure are complicated
o The problem is worsening
• Application downtime costs big money
• Network teams are not app experts
“The average cost of downtime for companies in 2012 was $161K per hour and the cost has increased by 61% in less than two years.”

Troubleshooting Time Savings Impact
![Page 9: Angelbeat -Cut Your Troubleshooting_Time-In-Half](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062400/58a75c001a28ab217e8b5011/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Reducing MTTI & MTTR with RNA
• Reactive methods employed,
primarily dependent upon IT
staff members abilities to
recreate, capture, analyze, and
interpret.
• Time-consuming, prone to error,
and extends downtime resulting
in increased organizational
costs.
• Enables a 50% reduction in the number of time consuming steps required to recreate, identify and resolve intermittent performance problems.
• Automated analytics and expert intelligence further reduce problem identification and resolution times under current staffing levels!

Preventative Savings – THE GOAL
![Page 11: Angelbeat -Cut Your Troubleshooting_Time-In-Half](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062400/58a75c001a28ab217e8b5011/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How to Meet the IT Challenge?
• With an APM solution that provides application
detail in the context of network performance
o Network Performance Monitoring &
Diagnostics (NPMD)
• Detect the issue, find the root cause across IT
silos
* 2014 State of the Network Survey Report
![Page 12: Angelbeat -Cut Your Troubleshooting_Time-In-Half](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062400/58a75c001a28ab217e8b5011/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Factors for Successful App Monitoring

o A simple workflow to connect them
• Back-in-time with intelligence
o Sometimes you need to look back to go
forward
• Deep-dive payload knowledge
o Gruesome details often matter for resolution
![Page 13: Angelbeat -Cut Your Troubleshooting_Time-In-Half](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062400/58a75c001a28ab217e8b5011/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Factors for Successful App Monitoring (cont.)
