If mobile apps are part of your business, having real-time insight on app performance, crashes, usage and transactions is critical. Data derived directly from mobile app usage—called “mobile data”—can help you deliver better performing apps and increase application visibility. With the massive increase in smartphone and mobile app usage, your app’s performance is more important than ever. Learn how to gain Operational Intelligence from your mobile apps with Splunk MINT.
