The first component of Application Velocity is the ability to gain visibility into the network and the applications that it supports. To deliver this capability, Application Velocity is equipped with a discovery & reporting mechanisms that identifies the applications in use. Applications can then be classified and prioritized on an end-to-end basis. As the applications are discovered, their performance can be measured, baselined, and monitored to assure user experience expectations are being realized. To understand trending and analysis of application performance, the visibility component provides trending and analysis to aid application owners/developers and network designers gain insight into performance over a period of time. Once the application baseline is established and trends identified quality of service (QoS) based controls are deployed to deliver fast response to endpoints for the critical applications.
