Compuware dynaTrace Product Support - Azure

Windows Azure

In Windows Azure, everything is about the application. Therefore the core element when it comes to Azure monitoring is application monitoring. Azure promises application owners, operators and developers to serve their end-users around the globe in large numbers with exceptional performance and user experience. dynaTrace provides the capabilities to manage End-User Experience for applications deployed in Azure. It also allows you to verify whether running your application on Azure is more cost effective than hosting it On-Premise. As you do not control the underlying Azure infrastructure, dynaTrace tells you whether your application performance is impacted by the hosting environment and automatically recommends options to resolve these issues.

Answer these questions with dynaTrace User Experience Management (UEM) which automatically integrates with Azure to provide out-of-the-box visibility and analysis of End-User Experience from the browser all the way to your Azure Web and Worker Roles.

2. Ensure Performance and Scalability

What’s the performance of your application running on Azure? Can your application leverage horizontal scaling that Azure provides? Is your Azure application deployment as fast as your pre-cloud deployment?

Answer these questions with dynaTrace and its PurePath Technology® that enables you to analyze performance of your critical business transactions down to the method level, all the way to your database and storage access logic.

3. Optimizing Costs and Ensuring SLAs

What costs are associated with our new search feature? How can we reduce cost per transaction per end-user? Are the Azure cloud services we use meeting our SLAs? What is the overall cost runoff running our application on Azure?

Answer these questions with dynaTrace, which has the ability to capture resource usage per transaction. Learn how much Azure Compute time each individual user consumes. Analyze how many Azure storage transactions your application performs per operation and use this to optimize cost and resource usage.
