DETROIT, Oct. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compuware Corporation (Nasdaq: CPWR ), the technology performance company delivering a new generation of application performance management (APM), today announced that Alois Reitbauer, a Technology Strategist for Compuware's APM business, will present a session on skills and best practices for building a reliable production incident system at the Velocity New York 2013 Conference.
| Session Title: | "The Dark Art of Building a Production Incident System" | |
| When: | Tuesday, October 15, 2013 | |
| Time: | 4:15 p.m. Eastern time | |
| Where: | Velocity New York 2013 Conference , New York Hilton Midtown, Grand Ballroom West | |
| What: | Incident management and alerting are the spine of operations monitoring . Getting them working | |
| properly is a great challenge – even today. Besides in-depth knowledge about how IT infrastructure | ||
| and applications work, organizations also need a fair amount of mathematical skills, if they don't | ||
| want to define ten thousands of alerting thresholds manually. | ||
| Our challenge was even tougher. We needed to develop a reliable incident system that works consistently | ||
| in more than 1000 applications without the requirement for any manual configuration. This session | ||
| will cover how this was done. | ||
| During this session attendees will learn: | ||
| * which metrics should and should not be tracked; | ||
| * why they should differentiate between violations and incidents; | ||
| * what makes a metric suitable for baselining and violation detection; | ||
| * the top reasons for too many or too few incidents; | ||
| * why an incident system might trigger too fast or too slow; | ||
| * what percentile drift detection is and how it helps to improve alerts; and | ||
| * how infrastructure and applications structure helps to reduce the number of incidents. | ||
| Speaker: | Alois Reitbauer is a technology strategist and evangelist in the Compuware APM Center of Excellence with | |
| more than 15 years of experience in the technology industry. Additionally, Reitbauer specializes in the | ||
| architecture and performance of Java and AJAX environments. | ||
Compuware is a gold sponsor of the Velocity New York 2013 Conference and will showcase and demonstrate Compuware APM, October 14-16 at booth #22.
