OPNET Introduces Breakthrough Solution for Managing Application Performance in Citrix Environments
31 August 2011 - 2:40PM
OPNET Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:OPNT), a leading provider of
solutions for application and network performance management, today
announced a new solution for managing the performance of
applications that run in a Citrix environment. This new module for
OPNET's AppResponse Xpert® solution provides end-to-end visibility
of user transactions that traverse a Citrix server, enabling
faster, more accurate diagnosis of application performance
problems. The announcement came at OPNETWORK, the company's annual
technology conference being held this week in Washington, D.C.,
where OPNET is performing live demonstrations of the solution.
Citrix application virtualization technology enables Microsoft
Windows applications to be virtualized and centralized, and
delivered to users as a service. It is a prevalent technology for
delivering applications due to its ability to vastly reduce
administration costs, make more efficient use of IT resources, and
improve the performance of enterprise applications over wide area
and mobile networks. While powerful and beneficial, the Citrix
environment can present new challenges to IT departments when
troubleshooting application performance issues.
"OPNET is excited to introduce this new capability," stated P.J.
Malloy, OPNET's Senior Vice President of R&D. "Many of OPNET's
customers have implemented a Citrix server because of the clear
benefits that it offers. However, troubleshooting application
performance in a Citrix environment requires certain information to
be correlated, which until now has been a painstaking manual, or
even impossible process. Specifically, a key challenge for
troubleshooters is being able to follow user Citrix sessions
through the Citrix server and associate them with their
corresponding back-end activity. This is crucial in order to be
able to find the actual source of a performance problem which could
lie in many different components. This correlation is exactly what
our new Citrix performance management solution for AppResponse
Xpert does."
Once this correlation is performed, AppResponse Xpert leverages
its proven transaction monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities
to analyze the overall user session. The solution is also able
to collect front-end Citrix server performance statistics, as well
as back-end application and database performance metrics in order
to provide a holistic performance dashboard for Citrix
server-hosted applications.
AppResponse Xpert uniquely combines end-user experience
monitoring and in-depth analysis of the behavior and performance of
the underlying network. It leverages the network's central role as
a conduit for data and transactions to obtain complete visibility
of IT services across the enterprise. Real-time on-board analytics
determine which components in the application infrastructure are
contributing most to delays.
Availability:
The new Citrix performance management module will be available
in the fourth calendar quarter of 2011 from OPNET Technologies, and
supports XenApp 5, 6, and 6.5.
