Product features

• Application and server dashboards
  Getting a concise view of application performance is a cinch with the Application Monitoring Dashboards in SolarWinds Application Performance Monitor (APM). You can get immediate visibility into critical applications with out-of-the-box dashboards for Microsoft Active Directory, Exchange, SQL Server, IIS, Windows and Linux or easily create your own for other applications. Plus, using the LUCID interface, you can quickly drill down into application views to view key performance data for that application, enabling you to troubleshoot performance issues quickly and easily.
• Dynamic service groups
  Finding the root cause of an issue can be like finding a specific block in an unsorted box full of Legos! But now you can simplify application monitoring and root cause analysis in large and complex IT environments by grouping servers or applications by virtually any category. With dynamic service groups, you can monitor and aggregate views of server and application groups by service (such as email), location, or department - making it easier to isolate where an issue is occurring.
• Conditional group dependencies
  Sometimes more is better. But that's not the case with application alerts. The Conditional Group Dependencies feature in SolarWinds APM enables you to intelligently map applications to the virtual or physical servers they run on. These dependencies allow you to receive a single critical alert if one application or server goes down instead of an onslaught of hundreds of alerts for each of the servers and applications that are impacted.
• Integrated virtual infrastructure monitor
  Remember when you could actually see and touch what you were managing in your data center? Back when a server was a physical box sitting in a rack rather than an amorphous virtual machine? Today your data center is more like something right out of The Matrix. That's why they've designed SolarWinds APM to monitor virtualized servers and applications, from the datacenter to the virtual machine. Using the Integrated Virtual Infrastructure Monitor, you'll gain deep visibility into your virtualized environments and applications so you can ensure that application
• Server monitoring
  Maintaining visibility into the health of business-critical applications and the servers they run on can be a real challenge - especially in complex, multi-vendor data centers. Keep a step ahead of server performance issues with SolarWinds APM.
• User experience monitors
  SolarWinds APM enables you to measure application performance from an end user's perspective with out-of-the-box SaaS monitoring and support for HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, and other ODBC databases. This user experience measurement gives you a heads up on problems and helps ensure that your users are happy with the performance of the applications that they rely on.
• Application discovery engine
  The Application Discovery Engine in SolarWinds APM automatically scans your servers, discovers applications, and assigns out-of-the-box monitoring templates within minutes of installation. No agents are needed, so deployment and maintenance are a breeze and there's no concern about slowing down your network.
