Application and Performance Management

Optimize performance from the data center to the desktop

Expanding global networks, consolidated data centers, rogue applications, spikes in volume. It is more complex than ever to deliver high performance for mission critical applications. Doing so requires efficient operation across your hosts, networks, LAN, and WAN infrastructure, and end-user systems. Verizon Business is one of the few providers that can give you the end-to-end visibility necessary to understand performance, pinpoint issues across multiple environments and implement solutions to consistently drive high performance.

We understand that you need a solution specific to your business – the right balance between accessibility, performance, and cost - not a one size fits all approach. Our expertise spans the 5 key areas necessary to deliver peak performance and you can choose where and how to engage our services – from a targeted engagement pinpointing one area of your infrastructure to a robust, end-to end solution managed by an experienced team of experts.

Assess

A detailed analysis of your infrastructure including the discovery and identification of network applications and the infrastructure that supports them. This includes analyzing the impact of new applications and recommendations for grooming existing networks to optimize application performance.

Application performance is affected in multiple environments and requires end-to-end visibility

Mission-critical applications need to be treated as an integrated component of an overall network system, not as stand-alone entities. The system that supports applications is complex and application performance can degrade from multiple sources.

Globalization

Applications are now networked globally through satellite, terrestrial, and submarine connectivity. With longer transmission paths, impacts of protocol chattiness and network delays are magnified impacting applications across the enterprise.

Consolidated data centers and centralized applications

The consolidated data center housing multiple applications is now being accessed by the entire enterprise. Such volume demands on network and processing resources can be overwhelming to the application system.

“Chatty” applications

Performance degradation can be compounded by application “handshaking” and on other “chatty” protocols that may require the application/transaction to traverse the system infrastructure many times, each time encountering the source of the degradation or delay.

Growing number of applications

Many IT professionals may not be aware of all the applications on their networks. Applications can come from anywhere, and often are loaded onto an enterprise without permission. The reality is that business units often deploy applications that may serve a limited purpose uncertain and are unaware of the impact on the enterprise as a whole. Multiplied by 1000’s of such applications, the impacts can be disabling.

Recreational, non-business applications

Couple unauthorized but legitimate applications with non-business applications and the combination adds further negative impact to mission critical application performance. It has been estimated that 30% of network traffic is non-business.

Identifying and addressing all of the issues affecting application performance requires focus and resources. Many companies can manage individual elements of the system. Improving end-to-end performance requires a holistic focus on all of the environments. Verizon Business, with its long history of Managed Services delivery, has the expertise to help you improve and maintain application performance.
