Catchpoint announced major platform enhancements,
including Application Performance Management (APM) deep linking and expanded
integrations providing enterprises complete user experience visibility, from
symptom to cause. In addition, Catchpoint surpasses 1,000 Border Gateway
Protocol (BGP) peers for extending reachability and releases node-to-node
testing within its global observability network. To enable the delivery of
today's distributed digital experiences, Catchpoint's platform is powered by
the world's largest network of active performance observers, driving innovation
as part of its user-centric mindset.
"Today, many Enterprises struggle to deliver their business
outcomes with traditional monitoring technology as the majority of legacy tools
are incapable of providing holistic business-level observability of a hybrid IT
world" says Mehdi Daoudi, CEO of Catchpoint. "These new capabilities are
another important milestone towards empowering IT teams so they can manage the
visibility challenges associated with everything hybrid!"
APM Deep Linking, Integration Ecosystem
Organizational silos and disjointed monitoring tools hinder
the effectiveness of IT operations. If the monitoring strategy uses certain APM
providers, then IT teams can trace a specific external monitoring transaction
all the way to their individual APM line of code thanks to Catchpoint's unique
insight ability. With expansive REST API and data webhooks, teams can develop
normalized capabilities for internal and external users to consume data in the
platforms of their choice.
Examples include:
- Deep
link with AppDynamics, SignalFX, and Instana
- Integrate
data to Datadog, Splunk Cloud, or Servicetrace
Node-to-Node Testing, Custom Visuals
Lack of unified visibility across the full digital service
delivery stack is a real challenge for today's IT deployments. The stack extends
from the cloud, through the internet, and all the way to users' browsers, apps,
and devices. With Catchpoint's node-to-node testing ability, customers can now
perform mesh monitoring to diagnose or fault isolate network-related issues
between multiple locations, including locations within an enterprise premise.
The ability to augment an expansive array of existing visuals with "bring your
own visuals" further allows IT teams to gain much-needed visibility across the
full stack.
BGP Peers, Endpoint Instant Tests
IT team's monitoring needs to be as distributed as the
digital service they deliver and the end users who consume them. Since
traditional APM tools focus on only application monitoring, extending digital
service reach eliminates blind spots into end-to-end user experience. With over
1,000 BGP peers, including the monitoring of IPv6 routes, IT teams can
configure monitoring, search, and set up alerting for IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes.
The ability to run on-demand tests directly from MAC and PC extends troubleshooting
abilities to where IT teams have traditionally had no reach - active testing
from the user's devices.
