Service-Oriented Architectures
To effectively manage quality of service and resource usage for service-oriented architectures (SOA), IT managers need a top-down view of how services behave – among components and across borders to legacy environments. OpTier Business Transaction Management (BTM) helps organizations make a successful transition to SOA, going beyond monitoring hardware and software application performance to actively assuring service level objectives based on business priorities.
Responding to usage fluctuations with real-time dynamic resource allocation, OpTier BTM addresses the need for flexibility and assures that priority services are met. It can help identify new usage trends and problem areas with a cross-sectional view of the tiers involved. OpTier BTM helps quickly isolate and resolve performance problems in testing and production and provides metrics for accurate planning of architecture and underlying system capacity.
OpTier BTM provides an end-to-end view of every transaction across multiple tiers, down to the resource metrics at each tier. For SOA initiatives, OpTier BTM offers:
- Assured SLA compliance: Automated allocation of resources to core business transactions, according to pre-assigned priority levels.
- Accelerated problem resolution and end-to-end visibility: Complete transaction visibility beyond SOA from the end user experience through presentation layers, the complete application stack and even legacy systems.
- Improved TCO and accelerated ROI for SOA deployment: Optimized hardware utilization with real-time deployment metrics of the service, components and legacy systems.
