Super PM "APM & NPMD"

Combining APM and NPMD functional scenarios, technical advantages, and avoiding defects

1. Background of Requirements

APM is the most common application performance monitoring method, its tight coupling with the business also leads to many objective factors that affect the large-scale deployment of APM in the process of deployment and operation, for example, the need to restart the business to take effect, which will increase the business processing delay, the contradiction between analysis granularity and resource consumption, and so on;

Although NPMD is easy to deploy, it also has drawbacks such as rough parsing granularity and numerous blind spots in cloud environments.

In fact, for the important business of traditional industries, there is a greater need for a truly non-intrusive, lossless performance, and business-level monitoring solution that can be deployed on a large scale.

The Super PM based on TiFlow and TiCommander can well meet the needs of this industry. TiFlow can not only analyze the data from the host, process, network, application and even business layer, but also calculate the performance index of each session and realize the multi-application scenario of "APM NPMD".

2. Functional characteristics

> Feature 1:Redefines "non-intrusive to business and the environment"

Throughout the deployment process, there is no need to modify the configuration of the business and environment (such as JVM), restart the business and host, worry about business development language, business iteration, and other issues, truly achieving 100% production uninterrupted agile deployment;

> Feature 2:Complete and rich performance index system

TiFlow will output rich performance indicators KQI at the same time, including network performance indicators such as network delay, retransmission and interruption, as well as HTTP/API RESPONCE,SQL query delay, DNS resolution delay and return code;

> Features 3:Complete alarm and dashboard capabilities

According to TiFlow's content and performance indicators of each session, TiCommander can provide powerful network-level, application-level, and service-level alarm and dashboard monitoring capabilities. Users can drill down to each session that causes alarms and exceptions for each alarm and exception.

> Features 4:"reinterprets" end-to-end across architectures

Not only does it support business chain performance monitoring on the server side, but it also supports access initiated from the PC side through TiFlow for Windows monitoring;

Support performance loss monitoring of network components (such as DNS resolution performance) and cloud/native architecture components developed based on languages such as C/C++;

> Feature 5: Full, Lossless, Real-Time

For busy business, APM needs to achieve full and non-destructive transaction data collection, as well as real-time alarms and monitoring, which will significantly affect business performance. Therefore, traditional APM methods are not suitable for performance sensitive large-scale businesses; But TiFlow + TiCommander solves this problem very well.
