Tidal Features Application Performance Management for SOA at JavaOne

Tidal Software, a leading provider of application scheduling and performance management software, today announced that it is demonstrating Tidal Intersperse, a comprehensive solution for monitoring and managing pure or composite SOA based applications in booth 1526.

Tidal Intersperse is unique in its ability to monitor specific business transactions end-to-end across JVMs, allowing it to trace a business process across servers -- which is becoming increasingly common as Java applications embrace more of the enterprise business processes.

"With Tidal Intersperse, Java customers can have deep diagnostic insight into their applications to quickly identify problems in production and ensure the right service level delivery to the enterprise," said Martin Milani, CTO for Tidal Software. "Without production-ready performance monitoring and management solutions for Java, IT is flying blind, and putting operations at risk," said Milani.

The following capabilities of Tidal Intersperse help prevent problems and remove the risks that exist when IT does not have clear, deep visibility into Java application performance:

--  Non-invasive for use in production
--  Detailed diagnostics for pinpoint accuracy
--  Dynamic service level monitoring
--  End-to-end monitoring of the business process
--  End-to-end transaction tracing
--  Automatic discovery of all objects including servlets, EJBs, MDBs,
    POJOs, portlets, and business processes
--  Complete monitoring of all services including JMS, JDBC and JTS
--  Standard JMX based
--  Built on SOA for SOA
--  Manages composite apps that include SAP NetWeaver, Oracle E-Business
    Suite, and PeopleSoft
    

Tidal Intersperse is recognized for its readily customized console that makes it easy to provide a visual, role-based display of the wide range of information needed for managing and analyzing Java deployments. With its custom MBean framework, Tidal Intersperse allows developers and production operators to build aggregate SLAs that capture and monitor the performance of the end-to-end business process. Tidal Intersperse is an ideal complement to Java application environments due to its standards based approach to Java monitoring that maximizes the power of JMX, delivering more through JMX than any other solution on the market.
