These solutions leverage best-in-class analytics for real-time monitoring, advanced application troubleshooting, and pre-deployment testing and planning. OPNET'

• Ensures compliance with SLAs for end-to-end performance with 24x7 monitoring and alerting
• Accelerates problem remediation with real-time analytics and automatic diagnosis
• Reduces the risk of deployment delays or failure by certifying application network readiness prior to deployment
• Avoids inefficient and costly infrastructure investments with predictive planning
• Eliminates "finger-pointing" among various teams responsible for application performance

End-User Experience Monitoring: ACE Live continuously monitors end-user application response times, providing real-time global visibility of all transactions and users across the enterprise via an appliance-based solution. The advanced real-time triage capabilities of ACE Live provide the ability to segment application response times into server, network, and application delays. ACE Live, combined with ACE Analyst and Panorama, delivers the industry's most powerful set of integrated solutions for monitoring, alerting, and troubleshooting.

Application Component Monitoring: Panorama continuously monitors performance-critical applications providing real-time component-level visibility across all servers in the application environment. Panorama tracks thousands of system and application metrics from the Java/.NET application server, web server, and database tiers. Panorama's powerful real-time correlation technology automatically relates metrics across multiple application tiers to rapidly identify root causes. Panorama has unique instrumentation technology that allows it to provide in-depth instrumentation of applications with minimal overhead in production environments.

End-to-End Transaction Analysis: ACE Analyst is the industry's leading solution for in-depth transaction analysis leveraging an embedded expert knowledge about network protocols and application behavior as seen from a network perspective. Panorama complements ACE Analyst by providing deep visibility into application internals, including Java and .NET components, classes, and methods. The ACE suite of solutions integrates directly with Panorama to uniquely deliver advanced end-to-end analysis across all of the network, system and application layers.
