The TrueSight Middleware and Transaction Monitor product enables application specialists and middleware administrators to monitor and manage their middleware applications across multiple technologies and platforms.
- Following the setup of policies, technology specialists can access end-to-end middleware transaction tracing and analyse historical data to assess trends, enabling them to anticipate problems before they occur.
- Customizable dashboards show how captured metrics relate to the application flow, enabling application specialists to assess the overall health of their applications.
