The Evolution of Chaos Engineering
Chaos engineering involves intentionally causing controlled failures in production or pre-production environments to understand their impact and improve resiliency strategies. It helps businesses mitigate potential damages by identifying weaknesses and refining incident response plans. In the fast-paced world of IT infrastructure and application management, unexpected & unplanned failures can wreak havoc on businesses, leading to a cascade of detrimental effects. From revenue loss and inflated operational expenses to disgruntled customers and tarnished brand reputation, the repercussions of downtime are multifaceted and costly.

Redefining APM: Moving from Monitoring to Management

Introduction 

Application Performance Management (APM) has become a crucial practice in modern software development and operations. Traditionally, APM has been synonymous with monitoring—keeping a vigilant eye on system performance metrics and reacting to deviations. However, as technology landscapes evolve and demands on applications grow more complex, the role of APM is also evolving. In today’s digital age, APM is not just about monitoring; it’s about proactive management and optimization. Let’s explore how this shift from monitoring to management is redefining APM.

The Future of APM: AIOps Ecosystems
The Future of APM
The future of Application Performance Monitoring (Application Performance Management or APM) will be closely connected to the growth of Artificial Intelligence in handling IT tasks (AIOps).  This means that APM tools will increasingly rely on artificial intelligence to monitor and improve the performance of software applications. AIOps is a revolutionary approach to managing and optimizing the performance of applications, networks, and IT infrastructures. APM is more than just monitoring; it’s about leveraging AI and automation to make proactive decisions and streamline operations.

NetDiagnostics – Next Generation End-to-End Observability Solution
NetDiagnostics - Next Generation End-to-End

Introduction of NetDiagnostics: 

NetDiagnostics is a next generation application performance monitoring (APM) tool developed by Cavisson Systems. Built to assist organizations in identifying the “why” behind application or system level issues, NetDiagnostics provides end-to-end observability by combining application, infrastructure, log and user monitoring in a single platform.

This approach not only eliminates the need to have multiple solutions for monitoring different components of your application landscape but provides context based information by combining varied data sources to assist your teams in drastically reducing the mean time to detect (MTTD).

Combined with NetDiagnostics’ advanced automatic root cause analysis or AutoRCA capabilities, teams are equipped to drill down to accurate root cause thereby also reducing the mean time to resolution (MTTR).

How Performance Testing will evolve in 2024

Revolutionizing Performance Testing: Embracing Change in 2024

As we step into 2024, the dynamism of the digital world continues to shape the way applications are developed, deployed, and maintained. This blog explores the key trends, challenges, and transformations that are redefining performance testing in 2024, paving the way for more efficient, accurate, and future-ready testing practices. A performance test examines an application’s ability, speed, scalability, and responsiveness under a specific amount of load. It is also known as load testing. For performance testing, there are several objectives: computing processing speed, analyzing application throughput, network consumption, data transfer velocity, maximum concurrent transfers, workload efficiency, memory usage, etc. Performance testing is regarded as a subset of performance engineering. Engineers can deliver code with confidence by performance testing applications. Because of this, developers and QA devote a great deal of time and resources to testing their code. Testing isn’t an isolated activity. It adapts to engineering needs. Testing shifted away from the Center of Excellence with the move from waterfall development to agile delivery. To improve efficiency and increase coverage, test automation was introduced. As the need to democratize testing grew, open-source testing projects flourished. Testing practices need to change with the changes in modern development and the digital transformation enterprises are experiencing, from legacy systems to cloud-native microservices. Other trends and global changes – such as privacy regulations, cybersecurity threats, the digitization of customer and supply-chain interactions, and increased leadership attention to digital infrastructure – also have an impact on testing methods.

What do we mean by 360-degree API Testing and Monitoring?
What do we mean by 360-degree API Testing and
In the past, testing was done only at the GUI level and at the end of the development process. When a developer finished their work, they handed it over to the quality assurance team. Because the engineers were short on time, they decided to test the code at the highest level possible: the GUI. Testing at a ground level, such as the API level, is required in the Agile era. Even developers can do it on their own. API testing can even be done before development is finished, thanks to “API contracts.”  This means that developers can use pre-written tests to validate their code.
