DevOps has become the dominant application development and delivery methodology today, embraced over traditional software development methods by teams striving for lightning-fast innovation and more frequent releases without compromising on quality, stability, or productivity.

Software development has always played a vital role in the development of a business. But software development is not only the coding of a part of the software; it also extends to debugging, testing, releasing frequently, and monitoring. Application performance monitoring is one of the most essential things that every software needs to do because a running software application can always go wrong in ways unimaginable.

Today you likely have one or more legacy APM (Application Performance Monitoring) solutions. You are moving from a monolithic architecture to microservices, and you are accelerating your journey to Cloud, and you need to deliver at speed with scale and quality to your customers. Sadly, visibility into these results are limited to each of these solutions and their interfaces.

When the Citrix architecture moved from v6 to v7, one of the main components that was introduced in the v7 architecture was the Citrix Delivery Controller (CDC). A Citrix Delivery Controller is a server-side component that is responsible for managing user access and brokering (enabling application and desktop access) and optimizing connections. Each site will have one or more delivery controllers.

The Citrix Ready team recently recorded a podcast with eG Innovations for their Tech Fusion podcast series. Hosted by Neil C. Hughes from The Tech Blog Writer, Rachel Berry from eG Innovations’ product team, and CTP, Richard Faulkner, (Enterprise Solutions Architect, Conversant Group) discussed how eG Enterprise enhances and goes beyond native Citrix tools.

A typical SAP deployment is usually a sprawling, complex system and is one of the most critical applications an enterprise relies on to keep the business functioning, with it interacting with production, sales, dispatch, HR, and other areas of the business. Monitoring the performance and availability of SAP is therefore the key. Proactive monitoring may allow minor issues to be resolved before they become major issues.

Everywhere you look, you see something to do with software and applications. But for all this software to work well, the people behind them have to know how they work. For a software developer, this comes as no surprise. They need to know how their code is working when deployed. Before the software deploys, they want to iron out errors, so they don’t become problematic and frustrate customers.

In the internet-driven economy, businesses rely on applications for different functions in the customer, partner, and employee spheres. Over the years, such applications have become more functional, faster, and user-friendly. However, end users still encounter slow loading pages, transaction failures, and esoteric error messages. These errors cause inconvenience to the users and lead to significant financial and reputational losses.
