Last week I published my winning Customer X-Ray of the Quarter, which showed how AppDynamics was able to help a media customer solve a production issue that had plagued their application for over two years. This week I’m posting the runner-up X-Ray entry. This one describes how AppDynamics was able to help an Insurance customer avoid a production outage by spotting a major bottleneck as their application was migrated from dev to pre-production during performance testing.

Whilst disrupting the APM marketplace is a primary objective for AppDynamics, our ultimate goal is to help customers manage applications performance and solve real world problems using our software. Our unique visibility allows customers to fully understand how their business transactions execute across their infrastructure, so when they slow down, our customers know the where, what and why . I reached out to our customers over the last six weeks and asked them to document how our X-Ray visibility has helped them solve real business problems. The best submission each quarter wins a brand new MacBook Air with runners up receiving t-shirts.

The winner this quarter came from an Media and Entertainment company in the US. Once again, the X-Ray below was documented by the customer and it shows how AppDynamics was able to solve a performance issue in production that had hampered their application for over two years!
