Application Performance Management (APM) is a component that is required to make the IT services in your organization transparent in terms of cost and usability. Today is APM solution must not only provide basic system resource monitoring data and business data as with traditional system Management solutions, but it must also be able to use these data effectively in performance troubleshooting as well as business strategy and capacity planning, effectively lowering the TCO (Total Cost of Operation) of the enterprise web system.
Are your WebSphere customers suffering from website performance issue such as system down or delayed transaction response time? Spending more than desirable time and resources troubleshooting web system performance issues? Traditional System Management Solution doesn’t provide adequate information for troubleshooting web system performance issues?
Looking for additional ways to generate revenue through new and existing customer base?
Sounds like you need an
Application Performance Management (APM) solution for web application servers.
My name is Edwin Seo with JenniferSoft Inc, a company that provides WAS APM solution and services for enterprise businesses. I am contact you to share with you about our APM solution for application server, Jennifer® and about business partnership opportunity between Mainline Information System Inc. and JenniferSoft.
What is APM and why is it necessary?
Application Performance Management or APM is the discipline within system management that focuses on monitoring and managing the performance and availability of resources for software application. APM solution is software that provides Application Performance Management services. In the past decades, the Web Application Server (WAS) market has seen significant growth as use of internet in every aspect of our lives has increased exponentially. Until 3~4 years ago, website performance problem has not been so significant overall that a separate APM solution was needed besides the Traditional System Management Solution. Often the website performance issues were resolved by simply adding more hardware or system administrators checking the codes manually, sometimes with self-developed solutions based on tools. But as web traffic became more congested and web systems got more complicated, APM solutions became necessary since the web site performance was causing a big impact on revenue or service level for many companies.
Indeed, a study by Infonetics Inc. have found that average medium size companies lose 1% (approx. $1,000,000) of their annual revenue due to downtime or performance problem. Web Systems today has reached a point where simply adding more hardware is not practical (and expensive) and administrators cannot devote all of their time and resources monitoring system for problem and checking massive amount of codes to find and resolve system bottlenecks. Concept of APM solution was born to find a practical and cost effective solution to WAS performance problems.
JenniferSoft and Jennifer
JenniferSoft is a successful software development company from Korea that took over the Korean APM market by storm over international competitions such as CA’s Wily and Symantec’s i3 and we currently hold # 1 APM market share in Korea.
We are looking for enterprise software distributor, re-seller, or SI company that provides web application server and related middleware software sales and services, who are interested in establishing a mutually beneficial partnership with JenniferSoft to generate additional revenue and provide invaluable services to WAS customers who are experiencing web system performance problems.
Developed by industry's leading WAS experts, Jennifer is designed to work with many different WAS such as WebSphere, WebLogic, JBoss, Tomcat, any many other web application servers, providing valuable services such as performance monitoring, performance troubleshooting, load controlling, etc., for the web system to ensure 24x7 system stability and maximized system performance.
Jennifer features eye-catching comprehensive Dashboard that shows relevant monitoring data and various tools such as "X-View" and "Problem Determination" that assist in finding the root cause and resolving the issue quickly and effectively in real-time. X-view, dashboard interface, and other features in Jennifer are unique and other competing solutions have not yet developed anything like it. X-View is one of the main features we promote heavily because it is great for monitoring and problem solving in practice and we have used it to resolve performance problems for many of our clients. We believe that these features are parts of our arsenal of advantages that will draw positive feedback from the customer.
What mutual benefits can be gained from a business partnership with JenniferSoft?
1)
Customer Satisfaction – After spending a ton of money on hardware and software, if the customer’s web system experiences performance problem, how would the it effect the customers? Implementing a quality APM solution ensures that the web system is optimized to output maximum performance, ensuring customer satisfaction. A satisfied customer is likely to comeback for continual business, especially if their web system continues to expand to meet the increasing traffic needs.
2)
Sell more hardware and Enterprise Solution – While Jennifer can optimized a web system performance, it cannot replace hardware. That mean a web system can be only optimized as far as the existing hardware will allow. Jennifer has comprehensive capacity planning capability that allows the administrators to see whether there is a need for additional hardware resource. Using Jennifer, our resellers have easily made case for their customers about the needs of additional resource to resolve the performance problem. Since Jennifer can provide clear evidence of needs for more hardware resources, selling additional hardware to customer who needs it gets that much easier. Also, satisfied customers tend to return for more business when their web system expands. Also, we recommend that Jennifer's server portion resides on its on its own machine. Yes, its only needs one and yes, it not a lot but it is still extra revenue.
3)
Increase revenue through referral fee or revenue sharing – Jennifer Offers generous incentive for distributors, resellers, and SI companies who refer or sell Jennifer to their new and existing customer. Also, Jennifer is easy to install, support, and use and should only require minimal resources to implement the solution and provide support to ensure high customer satisfaction. Most of all, Jennifer is an awesome solution and customers will recognize the benefit of using Jennifer Immediately. Once customer recognizes Jennifer’s features and benefits, it should be easy to recommend and sell Jennifer to customers. For past success stories, please visit our website.
The APM market seems to be full of well known players such as Symantec i3, CA’s Wily, and Mercury. How do you folks position JenniferSoft against these players?
Currently, APM market has 3 giants that are well known (CA's Wily, Symantec i3, Mercury) and many other smaller companies. However, the APM market is still very new and even the well known APM products by the software giants such as CA and Symantec have not yet fully matured. The standards for the APM solutions has not been yet set; many design flaws and weaknesses exist in current APM solutions, and because of this, there are still debates happening amongst the tech communities today about the potential benefit or value received from implementing an APM solution.
Many of today's APM solutions may look fancy and promise to do all kinds of stuff, but in practical use, it is often difficult to implement, cumbersome to use, and don’t offer much help in actually finding the bottleneck and resolution. In that respect, I think that we have a good opportunity to start setting the standard for the market. I believe that our product is on the right path in defining a standard for APM solution as a whole, and we are planning to do our best to promote our software so that people can try it out for themselves and decide on it.
