JProbe®: Market Profile"When instability issues negatively affect our company's reputation, how can you put a price tag on that? JProbe makes it possible for us to ensure that our production applications just keep running - by allowing us to quickly find memory leaks, track down threading and performance issues, and make timely fixes to code. I can say that our development, sales and support staff sleep well at night knowing full well that our applications are as rock solid as we can make them. Not using a tool like JProbe to verify application stability is just plain unprofessional." -Tom P. - Sr. Software Manager ----------------------------------------- Industry experts are strongly recommending that organizations address Java EE and Java SE performance management throughout the entire application lifecycle. According to the experts, software engineering and IT should enhance their practices to include specific performance-related activities at each appropriate phase of the application lifecycle, and use the appropriate tools to facilitate those activities. These activities should include performance testing, tuning, and optimization early-on in development. In fact, research shows that performance problems are much easier and cheaper to resolve the earlier they are caught in the application lifecycle. Custom Java applications today are much larger and more complex than ever before. While Java EE and Java SE applications are commonly easier and faster to build, diagnosing and resolving performance and stability problems remains a continual challenge due to the inherent complexity. The sheer number of interdependencies in object-oriented, multi-threaded Java programs makes it difficult to ensure performance without assistance. Without a way to help identify and fix application performance problems in pre-production, the business is at risk of poorly performing code finding its way into production and creating havoc. End-user experience is everything today. Although poor application performance can frustrate end users, application downtime can lead to more serious consequences. External users will turn to the competition if response times are poor. The result is that the business suffers in the form of lost revenue, decreased customer loyalty and a damaged reputation. Internal users of business applications are equally affected, as employees become idle and productivity slips, resulting in higher operating costs. Having the right tool to assist with testing, tuning and optimizing code early-on in development is essential to delivering high-quality, high-performing Java application code to production. The right tool will not only help development stay on schedule, remain on budget and satisfy all project requirements, but also promote best practices for ensuring code quality. That tool is Quest’s award-winning Java performance tuning solution, JProbe. Additional Information: Other Useful Sites: -----------------------------------------
