15. Huh? Why are we talking about APM? This is a “moving to the cloud presentation”.
Application Performance Monitoring (APM)
Web applications are the life-blood of modern business.
Tradition systems-based monitoring approaches for simply don’t work well for modern web
applications.
Application Performance Monitoring offers an approach that transcends the location of
application components.
And, in the case of Foglight APM, we have several distinct advantages for helping organizations
who are moving into the cloud.

16. Surprise!!!
Who doesn’t love a
surprise?
• CIOs
• Line of Business Owners
• Application Support Engineers

17. What is APM?
Analysts would say it is multiple dimensions
• Monitoring transactions and end-user requests
• Discovering the application run time topology
• Monitoring the software elements (like application servers) in the context of the transactional
activity
• Applying analytics to sort through all of the data
On a more emotional level, we say it is
• A way to make sure that application technicians have all the information they need to do their
jobs successfully
• A way for IT executives to ensure that they don’t get the bad surprises
• And ultimately, once applications are well under control, it offers technical team members a
way to be more proactive in improving performance and availability.
