Managing Application Delivery
On an ever-increasing basis, the primary components of a company's key business processes (e.g., sales, customer relationship management, quote-to-cash) are automated. If the applications supporting those key business process-es are unavailable or underperforming, the company's key business processes are negatively impacted. Learn to avoid these scenarios by taking a top-down approach to application performance management.
