People and Approach: The Application Performance Life Cycle
Development, test and production teams are strained because:
Traditional "throw it over the wall" approaches just don't cut it anymore.

Overall, this improves the application performance life cycle:
• No need to reproduce issues.
• Performance built in from the start.
• Fewer iterations.
• Less time spent finding and fixing problems.
• Faster applications.
• Better business.
- business demands are increasing
- applications are rapidly changing
- it takes too long to deliver and repair apps.
Traditional "throw it over the wall" approaches just don't cut it anymore.
- Developers spend way too much time reproducing problems (instead of fixing them).
- Business owners don't have enough business context to make informed decisions.
- Test teams are crunched by too many iterations.
- Too many problems occur in production.

There is a better way.
Compuware APM: Life Cycle by Design
Compuware APM provides a single APM platform that can be used by developers, test teams and production personnel. It captures and shares technical and business details for transactions in production and pre-production. 24/7. All transactions. All details. All the time.
The result?
When issues are reported to the business owner, they are given the business context: what users are impacted, the dollar amounts, the conversion rates, etc. Business owners can make informed decisions.
When issues are reported to development teams from production monitoring or preproduction testing, all the details are captured, shared and interactively analyzed: which transactions and when, what was the user click-to-code path and what were the environmental details.Overall, this improves the application performance life cycle:
• No need to reproduce issues.
• Performance built in from the start.
• Fewer iterations.
• Less time spent finding and fixing problems.
• Faster applications.
• Better business.
