Ixia and Dynatrace Partner to Deliver Enterprise Application Performance Assurance

Ixia (Nasdaq: XXIA), a leading provider of network testing, visibility, and security solutions, has partnered with Dynatrace, the innovator behind the industry’s premier Digital Performance Platform, to deliver enterprise application performance assurance.  This is accomplished through deep and wide network visibility that enables enterprise customers to identify and correct application issues before impacting the user experience.

Dynatrace’s Data Center Real User Monitoring (DC RUM) delivers end-user and transaction-centric performance monitoring for dynamic data centers, providing visibility into software-defined networks and accelerating the transition of organizations to more service-oriented IT operations.

“End-to-end network visibility is critical for the DC RUM solution to monitor and ensure a quality user experience,” said Scott Westlake, Vice President of Business Development at Ixia.  “Exploding data volumes and increasing speeds are making it difficult for IT administrators to monitor application performance.  Ixia’s Vision ONE™ solves the challenge of monitoring large volumes of traffic by providing DC RUM both packet and flow data.”

Dynatrace’s integration with Ixia’s unique NetFlow data feed, IxFlow, provides DC RUM content and context rich flow data, for a wide view of the network.  By analyzing performance metrics in the context of the user’s experience, DC RUM enables IT teams to prioritize and solve problems directly impacting their users, helping organizations save valuable time and resources.

Ixia’s application level filtering also enhances deep dive monitoring and troubleshooting by removing unnecessary traffic, or data packets.  This supports DC RUM to not only keep pace with increasing network data volumes, but speed application performance monitoring to ensure rapid identification of application issues before impacting the user experience.

“Dynatrace customers rely on our solutions to deliver powerful insights and analytics,” said Steve Tack, Senior Vice President at Dynatrace.   “Many of our customers rely on Ixia technology to provide deep dive packet level visibility into business critical applications like SAP, Citrix and Oracle, as well as wide flow visibility to help facilitate performance analysis and troubleshooting. Our integration with Ixia’s IxFlow provides our mutual customers scalable end to end visibility.”
