Idera Unveils New Version Of Precise At Oracle OpenWorld

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today at Oracle OpenWorld, Idera is showcasing a new version of its suite of Precise Application Performance Monitoring products. The latest release offers several enhancements aimed at helping customers improve the performance and availability of their mission critical applications, highlighting Idera’s long-standing commitment to extreme transaction transparency, rapid issue resolution and proactive problem prevention.

Precise is used by many of Idera’s largest customers to manage their most mission critical database and applications, many of which include hundreds of critical components, including SAP, Siebel and PeopleSoft along with Oracle, SQL, DB2 and Sybase.

The latest updates reflect Precise’s goal to simplify application performance management for administrators and include:

• New agent architecture for monitoring Java, .NET and web application infrastructure allows organizations to benefit from new feature releases via framework updates, without touching the agents themselves – which are also backwards compatible with the Precise PMDB (Performance Management Database). This is a small part of a broader initiative to enhance the entire Precise platform to take advantage of this new model of architecture, including lowering total cost of ownership and easing ongoing maintenance.
• Improved Java Garbage Collection and Memory utilization statistics give Precise administrators more visibility into how garbage collection is being performed. The additional details present specific pools, generations and algorithms, giving administrators the ability to see trends and forecast issues accurately for maintenance needs related to memory.
• Enhanced support for Oracle 11.x and experimental support for Oracle 12C provides new memory mapping for monitoring as well as support to host the PMDB.

“With the release of Precise 9.6.1, we continue to deliver on our promise of simplified installations and upgrades,” says Josh Stephens, vice president of product strategy at Idera. “Featuring our new agent architecture that allows upgrades to be applied without changing agents, the latest release of Precise removes the need to make changes to critical production servers when performing upgrades, effectively eliminating extensive testing and certification requirements.”

As organizations are increasingly asked to support more diverse applications that span a variety of platforms and disciplines, gaining visibility across the entire stack has become a significant challenge. Precise’s upcoming roadmap addresses these challenges, delivering enhanced alerts, both hosting and monitoring support for Oracle 12C, broader VMware compatibility, expanded Windows certification, SQL Server 2014 support, and a new enterprise level Operations Dashboard report. The additional enhancements are further testament that Idera’s Precise APM products have a razor sharp focus on helping businesses find more efficient ways to manage their application performance.

“Precise has long been recognized as the go-to solution for mission critical environments,” said Charlie Wiemann, vice president of operations at Precise. “No other monitoring software provides the detailed click to storage APM capabilities of Precise. Simplifying the installation and upgrade processes while also adding future compatibility and support, will allow our customers to achieve ROI more quickly, and ensure early adoption of the latest advances in our monitoring technology as well as widen the scope of transparency.”
