Unified performance management: moving beyond the silos

Delivering scalable applications in a competitive business environment

Published February 2016

Enterprises are adopting hybrid clouds and software-defined infrastructure to accelerate their ability to deliver scalable applications in a very competitive business environment. These new architectures are extremely complex, which is forcing IT organisations to establish multidisciplinary cross-domain operations teams to support them. These teams need unified performance management and service assurance platforms that encourage collaboration and provide cross-domain operational visibility. Riverbed SteelCentral Platform is an example of a management system that combines application performance management (APM), network performance management (NPM) and network configuration management into a unified solution that helps IT operations support application delivery more effectively and efficiently.
