Active Context Tracking™
OpTier's comprehensive transaction tracking flow detection is powered by patented Active Context Tracking™ (ACT), a lightweight, non-intrusive technology that automatically tracks every transaction as it crosses multiple tiers. ACT constructs business transactions out of smaller work units on each tier (such as data access at the database level and EJBs on application servers). Typically, work units lack any business transaction context. In real-time, ACT associates all work units with the logical business transaction instances to which they belong, using an accurate, deterministic method that does not rely on statistical correlation and does not depend on the existence of common IDs in the environment.
