Performance Monitors

Monitors

Performance Monitors determine how efficient the network is operating. Additionally, it looks into what applications are working to gather and show performance metrics. These metrics are then stored in dashboards and reports detailing and quantifying performance.

Tools

Performance Monitoring Tools gather and report on device performance metrics over time. They track availability through lag, delay, ping time, delay and even network jitter. These monitors show how things work based on performance relative to desired performance determined by thresholds.

Software

Performance Monitoring Software helps IT visualize trends, analyze overall performance and calculate averages. This data drives performance reports, showing how often applications are under heavy traffic, usage loads and peak usage times. This data is vital for architecting the network to suit the organization's needs and allocating resources to help critical applications work at their best.
