Organizations are delivering an increasing number of web applications within the Akamai cloud. Cloud-based application acceleration, which may include rich internet applications (RIA), web-enabled business processes, extranet portals and software as a service (SaaS) applications, heightens operational complexity. This necessitates that organizations measure application delivery from a user-centric view, independent from how or where web applications are being delivered.
Traditional web performance management tools simply don’t see the performance that these applications are delivering to end users.
TrueSight Edge enables organizations to see the benefits provided to each individual user for any web application delivered by Akamai's Application Performance Solutions (APS). TrueSight Edge provides accurate end-to-end transaction times, measured according to the end-user view. Knowing the actual experience of the end-user, no matter where content originates is critical to providing a superior quality-of-experience (QoE).
Akamai customers can use TrueSight Edge to directly compare the performance of applications that are accelerated with Akamai and those not accelerated using Akamai. This allows organizations to better plan their infrastructure and make the most intelligent decisions regarding the use of Akamai Application Performance Solutions (APS).
TrueSight Edge is the result of joint collaboration efforts between Coradiant and Akamai. Organizations can deploy TrueSight Edge in less than a day, requiring no infrastructure changes. TrueSight Edge supports the full suite of Akamai Application Performance Solutions, including Web and IP-enabled application delivery services.
As with all Coradiant products, TrueSight Edge is supported with state of the art hardware and is shipped fully configured. Deployment takes less than an hour and data collection begins immediately.
