Transaction Tracking

The Importance of Mastering Your Transaction Flow

Transactions range from simple synchronous message exchanges between point-to-point application connections to much more complex asynchronous communications, a sophisticated tracking and monitoring solution is required.

In the latter instance, long-running, multi-step asynchronous transactions transit your IT infrastructure and sometimes cross one or more corporate firewalls. They frequently involve a broker routing the messages associated with a single transaction to many discrete destinations (DBs, servers, apps, mainframes, etc.). And because a message broker is involved, these complex transactions defy standard tracking and analysis via tagging or statistical sampling techniques. The Nastel Platform stitches together complete end-to-end transactions by examining method calls and individual message payload contents, correlating them and presenting intuitive visualizations of any pending or existing breaches in expected behavior and performance.

End-to-End Monitoring

Effective Transaction Monitoring

To be able to effectively monitor a transaction, you must be able to monitor each system that the transaction passes through. If you have gaps in your knowledge, each event will take you much longer to resolve. You will need to call the owners of each system together, and listen to how each systems team is convinced their running within defined SLA’s. These meetings are often referred to as “war room meetings”. And every experienced IT and operations professional will tell you, anything that can be done to avoid war room meetings, should be!

Creating a Complete View of the Enterprise Application

Problem

You must be able to see inside each system
Across every platform, including mainframe, distributed datacenters and clouds.

From mobile apps to enterprise payment systems, digital business services depend upon fast and seamless exchanges of electronic business transactions. When transaction performance lags, business suffers. The Nastel Platform can monitor every form of machine data and tracks, analyzes, and visualizes the status and integrity of every transaction, from end-to-end, enabling fast problem resolution before users are affected.
