Announcing Longitude V2
SLA Monitoring, Transaction Monitoring, & More



Real Time SLA Dashboard

Longitude® V2's real time SLA dashboard provides an up to the minute, graphical view of service level performance, as well as historical reporting and drill-down capabilities to investigate shortfalls in service compliance. Longitude includes out of the box SLA definitions for common performance issues such as CPU usage and server reachability. Additional service conditions can be defined individually or can combine a variety of performance metrics to emulate business service conditions.

Flexible SLA Definitions

Longitude provides a realistic picture of Service Level Agreement performance by taking into account the fact that meeting an SLA normally depends on multiple factors. For example, suppose five different monitored servers are running a Web application. If one server goes down; that might still be “acceptable” for the particular service level. The condition might fall to “degraded” if two servers go down, and so on. Instead of looking at the components individually, Longitude understands that the overall business service level is the primary concern.

Transaction Monitoring &  More

Longitude V2 also features user-definable transaction monitoring. Users can measure and report on a variety of common transactions, including:

  • DNS
  • FTP
  • HTTP
  • NNTP
  • Ping
  • Process
  • Service
  • SMTP
  • SQL
  • SSH
  • Telnet 

Also new to V2 are added database and infrastructure monitoring capabilities including support for MySQL, Active Directory, and DHCP. A new trend monitoring feature keeps tabs on long term utilization trends and alerts you if CPU, memory, or disk usage near saturation sooner than expected.
