  1. AppMetrics and SCOM Working Together to Maximize the availability of Your applications

  2. Operations Manageris a Management Framework • Its key strength is gathering a broad array of events and metrics(a distributed event manager) from: • Operating Systems • Windows 2003 To 2008 Server. • Network Protocols • DHCP, DNS, RAS, WINS • Microsoft Technologies • Active Directory, IIS, Terminal Services, MSCS, MSMQ • SCOM can also manage MS packaged applicationssuch as: • Microsoft Exchange Server • Microsoft SQL Server Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  3. But What About Your Custom Business Applications? • If you need to know what’s going in the operating environment around your custom application, then you use SCOM • But you will also need to know whether your custom application is successfully operating and transacting business, as intended. This is when you are going to need AppMetrics, with SCOM. “Microsoft is relying on other vendors to provide the ‘expert knowledge’ for more complex application management issues”, consultant. Which is why, when it comes to managing custom developed business applications, Xtremesoft’s AppMetrics and SCOM, is the solution. “AppMetrics is a great complement to SCOM”, consultant. Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  4. Xtremesoft’s AppMetrics is a Focused Solution • AppMetrics is geared toward managing applications based on: • COM+ • .NET Serviced Components • AppMetrics collects detailed, application specific events and metrics from your custom business applications • Collates them from the perspective of your application • Gives you a business view • Enables you to maximize your custom application’s effectiveness and availability • AppMetrics then feeds these alerts to SCOM Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  19. Transaction Duration Exceeded Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  20. Typical other problems that AppMetrics will solve • Where should I invest development/engineering resources? • Which component and method is slowing down the business process? • Where are the leaks? • Which component is hanging? • Where did performance change? Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  21. Methods Summary Report Solution: AppMetrics Methods Summary Report • Method Duration Graph • Method Duration Distribution Graph Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  22. Methods Drill Down Report Solution: AppMetrics Methods Summary Report • COM+ Activity • Method Name • Start and End Times • Duration • 1/10 millisecond accuracy Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  23. What Exactly Does This Mean? • SCOM is the general practitioner • Information that can tell you that an application server is sick (or dead) • AppMetrics is the specialist • It can diagnose and pinpoint why something is happening with the application and do so proactively • An application’s CPU or memory use is exceeding a threshold:a designated transaction is taking too long:a particular component is aborting or failing: a components method hangs.

  24. System System System System System System System System Technology CustomApplications OperatingSystem PackagedApplications AppMetrics tells you that the business logic in your custom application is transacting successfully… (or not!) The Value Of AppMetrics $$$ Optional OM management packs let you know SQL Server database records are being successfully written and Exchange Server e-mail works… OM tells you DHCP, DNS, Active Directory, WINS, and MSMQ, are up and running… OM tells you that disks are spinning, CPU’s aren’t pegged, network packets are flowing… Business Value Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  25. Xtremesoft’s Relationship with Microsoft Xtremesoft has worked closely with Microsoft over the years to build the most comprehensive solutions for this platform • Microsoft Platform Technology Development Teams • COM+ • .NET Enterprise Services • Microsoft Product Development Teams • Systems Center Operations Manager (SCOM) • Microsoft Support and Services Teams • Prescriptive Architecture Guidance (PAG) Group • Premier Support Services Middleware Integration Team • Microsoft Consulting Services and the Microsoft Technology Centers • Microsoft IT Operations Teams • Microsoft ITG ACE Team Working Together: SCOM and AppMetrics

  26. In Summary • SCOM alone is used when you want to manage the: • Base operating system • Infrastructure technologies • Packaged applications • AppMetrics manages: • Your custom developed, critical business applications • Providing finer granularity on key MS transactional technology and propagating the alerts to SCOM • Now to the demo ….
