AdventNet Announces Immediate Availability Of Middleware
Manager 4.0 WebLogiC Edition For JMX-Based Management Of Web
Applications
Pleasanton, California, July 23, 2002
AdventNet, Inc., the leading provider of standards-based
J2EE management solutions announced the immediate availability
of AdventNet Middleware Manager 4.0 WebLogiC Edition, optimized
for advanced JMX (Java Management Extensions) based management
of entire web application ecosystems.
"Managing J2EE environments has become critical as enterprises
increasingly embrace J2EE-based ecosystems." said Corey
Ferengul, Vice President, META Group. "A standards-based
solution, rather than a proprietary solution, is the ideal
choice in today's environment, particularly as enterprises
evolve towards management of web services. JMX plays a crucial
role in the management of Java/J2EE based web applications
and is the management standard of choice in the Java world."
AdventNet Middleware Manager leverages AdventNet's expertise
in solutions based on open standards such as JMX and SNMP.
AdventNet has more than 160 ISV and enterprise customers for
its JMX-based toolkit. AdventNet also has the distinction
of having the first Sun-certified independent JMX implementation.
The J2EE agent toolkit integrated with Middleware Manager
leverages JMX and SNMP standards and facilitates the generation
of a custom agent to expose rich advanced management information
about the applications deployed on the WebLogic Server.
"BEA is a valued AdventNet OEM partner and BEA WebLogic
Server ships with AdventNet SNMP technology. Our in-depth
understanding has helped optimize Middleware Manager WebLogic
Edition to meet the specific needs of WebLogic users. Open
standards provide investment protection and ease of integration
with enterprise consoles. Using JMX, enterprises avoid closed
proprietary architectures that are liable to rapidly become
obsolete and require expensive integration", said Sekar
Vembu, President of the Enterprise Business Unit at AdventNet.
AdventNet Middleware Manager 4.0 has a number of exciting
new features that make it 'the preferred solution' for managing
WebLogic deployments. The End-to-End Web Transactional Views
provide complete visibility into individual transactions and
detailed application performance statistics in clustered environments.
The intelligent Root Cause Analyzer provides accurate and
detailed alarm analysis. The extensible GUI supports creation
of custom dashboards, to present a snapshot view of the entire
deployment environment - with further drill down as needed.
This release adds new support for component monitoring, including
support for monitoring BEA Tuxedo JOLT connections.
The end-to-end functionality in the Middleware Manager addresses
management of the entire application ecosystem - infrastructure
(application server, web server, database, log file etc.)
as well as the applications built on the infrastructure. Middleware
Manager, AdventNet ManageEngine for JMX enablement, and AdventNet
Console Builder as the graphical dashboard builder, together
offer a comprehensive and scalable web application management
solution.
With AdventNet's policy of 'try before you buy', the fully
functional AdventNet Middleware Manager is now available for
download at www.webnms.com.
