AutoStrobe

AutoStrobe increases the flexibility of Strobe and iStrobe, boosting productivity and enhancing Application Performance Management (APM) programs by making the measurement process predictable and repeatable.

AutoStrobe proactively initiates a Strobe measurement when a program exhibits abnormal behavior, allowing organizations to measure and analyze application performance-reaping continual benefits with minimal personnel costs. AutoStrobe oversees the execution of batch programs and identifies those that run too long or consume excessive resources. By detecting possible performance problems and initiating Strobe measurements automatically, AutoStrobe enables you to focus your Application Performance Management (APM) efforts on only those performance issues of high priority.

AutoStrobe users can:

• have a list of candidate jobs automatically generated that Strobe should watch or that should be measured
• set Strobe to automatically initiate a performance measurement if a user-defined threshold is exceeded
• schedule regular measurements of mission-critical online and batch processing applications
• track trends and compare application performance over time
• calculate cost savings from application performance improvements
• focus APM efforts on only those performance issues of highest priority
• publish detected performance events to Abend-AID Fault Manager.

Together, Strobe, iStrobe and AutoStrobe provide a complete APM Package simplifying and automating application performance measurement and analysis while assisting enterprise IT professionals in keeping their businesses competitive.
