AppTitude 5.0 Provides New Vision for IT Decision Making and Application Performance Management

By Rajani Baburajan, TMCnet Contributor


App-DNA, a provider of application intelligence, announced a new generation of enterprise application performance management with the preview of AppTitude 5.0.


By integrating with Microsoft (News - Alert) System Center Configuration Manager and Microsoft Active Directory, as well as any other data source related to users and the computing environment, the new software provides “a new vision for IT decision making,” according to company officials.

According to App-DNA CEO, Mike Welling, “It's all about helping IT departments remove the complexity and the guesswork from application management decisions.”

Through this application, App-DNA enables IT organizations to understand their applications and lower the cost of managing desktops. By understanding the applications that run the business, they can make better deployment decisions and see even better success with System Center Configuration Manager.

AppTitude 5.0 is built on the concept of Application Intelligence. Application Intelligence generates insight about every application in a company's portfolio and applies that insight to yield better decisions on different aspects.

Application Intelligence can generate insights about application transformation projects such as major migrations, virtualization, server-based computing, and the like. It can also provide insights on application lifecycles by streamlining the provisioning, maintenance and support of new applications right through their retirement.

Furthermore, Application Intelligence provides valuable insights on application agility, the move to new deployment visions and user-centric computing, in which applications are delivered to any device, anywhere, on demand.

“Application Insight means informed decisions which can adapt dynamically to the evolving needs of the business,” said Paul Schnell, App-DNA CTO, in a statement.

AppTitude 5.0 has the ability to integrate application and operating system DNA data with new sources of information, such as user, domain and endpoint, for operational insight.

By mapping the relationship between all kinds of applications, delivery formats, platforms and channels for endpoint impact, enterprises can adopt a user-centric approach. This means decisions about applications -- including deployment and management options – can now be informed by the real impact on the business and the users.

AppTitude also includes analysis of target platform compatibility into a comprehensive Forward Path analysis that recommends the best fit for each application. The intelligence dividend extends to every company's 'business as usual' application performance management.

The application also goes beyond reporting on an application's readiness. It automatically packages all applications are ready for the new platform, and walks administrators through a 'guided remediation' process for the rest, company officials said.

AppTitude is already the platform of choice for application compatibility testing and remediation to support major application migrations such as the move to Windows 7 and Microsoft Application Virtualization.

According to App-DNA, AppTitude 5.0 will be released on April 19, 2011.

Earlier this year, App-DNA announced the release of Internet Explorer Web application testing and remediation features within AppTitude application compatibility software platform.
