Overview:
Business Challenge
In today’s complex application architectures, a user transaction can involve many server tiers and the exchange of thousands of messages between them. Finding the source of delay for individual user transactions in multi-tiered server environments can be like finding a needle in a haystack. As a result, IT engineers spend significant time analyzing trace data and performance metrics, often arriving at different and conflicting conclusions on the cause of performance problems to further delay resolution.
The Riverbed Solution
Riverbed SteelCentralTM Transaction Analyzer software provides powerful, detailed analysis of a single transaction through visualization and analysis techniques to help you quickly and conclusively determine the root cause of a performance problem.
You can use to collate multiple related packet traces for individual user transactions from across multiple server tiers into a single multi-tier view of application and network message exchanges. Then you can visualize multi-tier transactional behavior and performance and easily communicate information to application stakeholders.
It helps you picture application performance, including application message turns and system performance statistics and accurately identify the primary sources of transaction delay. And you can automate diagnosis of performance bottlenecks with expert analysis.
In pre-deployment environments, SteelCentral Transaction Analyzer software is the industry-leading solution for application network readiness testing. Run “what if” scenarios to predict the impact of change on application response times and validate proposed solutions to performance problems before deployment by assessing the effects of adjustments to network and application parameters.
You can use it to study the impact of many simultaneous transactions (multiple clients, servers & applications) on performance, and even quantify the effects of WAN optimization and other network investments on your applications prior to purchase.
Key Benefits
- Get faster, more accurate analysis of transaction and packet data
- Quantify the effects of WAN optimization on your application performance

Product Integration:
- SteelCentralTM Packet Analyzer software uses an intuitive, graphical user interface to maximize user productivity by rapidly isolating the specific packets needed to diagnose and troubleshoot complex performance issues. It enables users to quickly analyze multi-terabyte packet recordings from AppResponse and SteelCentral NetShark appliances. Because SteelCentral Packet Analyzer uses indexing to speed analysis, it can quickly dissect large trace files to focus on specific transactions for multi-tier user transaction analysis and performance prediction in Transaction Analyzer
- SteelCentral AppResponse, a real-time end-user experience monitoring solution, can isolate transactions of interest for drill-down into SteelCentral Transaction Analyzer software for root cause analysis. The combination of SteelCentral AppResponse and SteelCentral Transaction Analyzer software is unmatched in the industry, providing a seamless work-flow that spans monitoring, alerting, triage, root cause diagnosis, and remediation guidance
- SteelCentral AppInternals software traces user transactions through the application and provides deep monitoring for the individual components. Using data from Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals software, analyze a unified view of a transaction’s dynamics, comprising both messages crossing the network and code-level call trees as the transaction passes through multiple tiers
- SteelCentral AppMapper can create run time application dependency diagrams using SteelCentral Transaction Analyzer capture agents
- SteelCentral NetShark appliances provide continuous, high-speed packet capture, indexing, and storage to ensure that packet-level information is always available for analysis in SteelCentral Transaction Analyzer software
