Identify Software Introduces AppSight 4.0 To Ensure Application Availability and Problem Resolution.Business/Technology Editors Identify's Black Box Software Targeted at New Web-Based Distributed Application Architectures For Root Cause Problem Analysis Identify Software, formerly Mutek Solutions, the leading provider of application reliability solutions, announced today the release of AppSight 4.0. This solution represents the new industry standard for pinpointing the root cause of application failures, improving the reliability, availability and scalability of Web, client and server applications. AppSight 4.0 enables users to rapidly capture, communicate and identify user, system and code level issues to prevent costly and complex source code errors and system failures from crippling crip·ple n. 1. A person or animal that is partially disabled or unable to use a limb or limbs: cannot race a horse that is a cripple. 2. A damaged or defective object or device. tr.v. the development and performance of business-critical applications. For the first time, development and application management teams can isolate application behaviors and follow transactions across nodes and domains to identify the root cause of problems wherever they may occur in the application life cycle - development, testing, deployment or support - in real-time. "The causes of application hanging, failures and downtime The time during which a computer is not functioning due to hardware, operating system or application program failure. are often elusive and expensive to identify," said Daniel Sholler, Meta Group's Vice President, Application Delivery Strategies. "As a result, developers, testers and support personnel can spend hours, days and even weeks searching for problems that could cost companies millions of dollars. Moving forward, companies will depend on tools, such as Identify's AppSight, to capture a real-time, complete view of the application lifecycle and landscape and fix a problem before it escalates." AppSight 4.0 surpasses traditional root cause, debugger Software that helps a programmer debug a program by stopping at certain breakpoints and displaying various programming elements. The programmer can step through source code statements one at a time while the corresponding machine instructions are being executed. , testing and monitoring processes by enabling application developers, testers, support staff and Web service teams to capture the live execution of Windows, Java, and custom third party applications. Built on Identify's core Black Box technology, AppSight's transparent software solution resides on application servers to record and present a unified view of user, system and code level activity throughout an organization's application community. This enables users to understand application behavior, predict vulnerabilities and drill down to identify and fix problems, without having to modify an application or recreate the situation. AppSight 4.0 Features and Benefits: Analyze IIS-Based Web applications - AppSight 4.0 provides special support for resolving problems in IIS-based applications.

Pinpoint Application Configuration Issues - AppSight 4.0 facilitates early identification of application configuration issues by comparing application resources in failing versus non-failing environments and scenarios. Identify Failures in Distributed Applications An application made up of distinct components running in separate runtime environments, usually on different platforms connected via a network. Typical distributed applications - Application development and production support teams can attach to running applications and trace transaction paths across modules and nodes to view and identify the root cause of problems inside discreet dis·creet adj. 1.
