Upgrades & Deployment

Ensure you meet performance goals during application releases, infrastructure changes and deployments

Don’t let end user experience suffer during your transformation and upgrades

The acceleration of change at all levels of IT and with cloud and hybrid environments can drive dramatic changes in performance rates for users and customers. Without comprehensive performance monitoring, IT teams struggle to understand the impact of software releases and infrastructure changes on end user experience. Continuous integration and the move to automated and dynamic infrastructures mean longer resolution times. This makes the testing of alternative designs that could generate performance gains nearly impossible.

Driving optimization while flying blind is not an option

Numerous factors impact the delivery of applications: clients, Internet and WAN, name resolution, identity management, security infrastructure, load balancers, servers, cloud services, back end servers, and so on. There are numerous ways to optimize the end-to-end performance of applications. Without objective measurement, how can you test which change will deliver the highest value?

Skylight gives you instant feedback on how new designs and optimizations deliver a significant improvement for your users and customers.

Never lose the ability to track performance during infrastructure migrations

Running upgrades, configuration changes, and infrastructure migrations right is difficult. Ensuring changes do not impact how internal users and customers can use applications is a critical part of it. Without monitoring performance before, during, and after the change, there is no way to ensure migrations are completed as expected.

Skylight gives you a continuous baseline of performance throughout your change process and pinpoints any degradation or improvements made on the user experience.

Ensure excellent end user experience is maintained through release cycles

With increased software release frequency, the behavior of your applications is continuously changing. Understanding the impact of continuous deployments on end user experience is key to meeting business requirements. Monitoring end-to-end application performance in this environment requires a new approach.

Skylight’s self-configured performance monitoring builds a history of end user experience for all of your applications and helps you understand what changes had a positive or negative impact on your bottom line.
