Gartner has published a new APM report, Critical Capabilities for Application Performance Monitoring, authored by Cameron Haight, Will Cappelli and Federico De Silva.

The report, a companion document to the Gartner Magic Quadrant for APM which evaluates APM suite capabilities across five usage scenarios, is designed to assist IT planners as they look to support mission-critical e-commerce and other services. Those use cases identified by Gartner consist of Application Support, Application Development, IT Operations, Application Owner or LOB, and DevOps Release.

Fifteen vendor products were chosen and evaluated for each capability and scored on a five-point scale. The capabilities assessed for each use case included business analysis, service monitoring, anomaly detection, distributed profiling, application debugging, and workload planning.

The report covers several APMdigest sponsors, including:

■ AppDynamics

■ CA Technologies

■ Dynatrace

■ Nastel Technologies

■ New Relic

“We’re thrilled with AppDynamics’ first place ranking in Gartner’s recent ‘Critical Capabilities’ report,” said AppDynamics President and CEO David Wadhwani. “It’s critical that enterprises have an effective and unified application performance monitoring, troubleshooting and analytics solution in place — our AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform is an essential pillar for driving digital transformation forward. We believe Gartner’s research further solidifies AppDynamics’ leadership across the board, by being named a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring Suites and in the use cases paramount for ensuring successful business outcomes.”

In addition, the report covers AppNeta, BMC Software, Dell, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, IBM, JenniferSoft, ManageEngine, Microsoft, Riverbed Technology and Tingyun.
