The move towards an “app economy” is accelerating the rate of new, business-critical application deployments. And all the while, expectations are continuously rising for higher availability and faster performance across hybrid physical/virtual/cloud infrastructures. One important path to success involves bringing together infrastructure, application, and service level visibility via unified IT monitoring. This ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES® whitepaper examines why unified IT monitoring is an important enabling technology for both enterprises and management service providers, including both the organizational and strategic impacts as well as the business case surrounding it.

In the past few years, the enterprise computing landscape has changed dramatically. Changes such as virtualization and cloud computing are rendering legacy monitoring tools virtually useless. This paper explores today's computing trends and their monitoring implications in detail. It also introduces solutions that address the monitoring needs of tomorrow's enterprises.

Multiple, complex monitoring solutions make IT operations costly and inefficient. This can be compounded by the need to manage remote data centers. Industry leaders are calling for a solution which is easy to manage and configure and allows new system components to be added remotely into live systems. By also offering multi-tenancy, it would be ideal for managed hosting providers. This paper discusses how CA Unified Infrastructure Management meets these needs, including customer case studies which outline how it improved transparency, thereby reducing IT operations costs.

The viability of your brand largely rests on the quality of your customers’ experience with your applications—often the most important experiences they’ll have when doing business with you. Successful CIOs and technology leaders will know how to deliver the application experience users expect by taking ownership of the application experience, obtaining key performance information needed to share—or democratize—that data with all relevant teams and business leaders. These technology leaders recognize that great performance is driven when all teams understand what they need to know to act.

For the first time in a long time, CEOs, CIOs and IT groups are on the same page. They’ve seen the changes in the marketplace, and they know that if they want to compete, they must find a way to deliver new applications, services and capabilities faster and at a higher quality than ever before – and do so without taking on new costs or risks. Read this new brief to see how enterprise companies are meeting this challenge and maintaining their competitive edge.

The application economy is motivating leaders to make critical changes across IT and the business, one of the most significant being the adoption of DevOps. For enterprise IT organizations hoping to drive the technology strategy across the business and provide customers with higher-quality software, faster, DevOps—with its focus on collaboration across IT domains from development to delivery—is increasingly the answer.

The research shows DevOps delivers 18% faster time-to-market and 19% better app quality/performance.,

When it comes to delivering applications, what if you could SHIFT your timeline LEFT and turn out apps 25 to 50 percent faster with higher quality and less labor? What if you could SHIFT LEFT and achieve 100 percent return on your investment by the time you deliver your next application? What if you could SHIFT LEFT and make DevOps a reality?
