Wily Team Up
Tower Technology and Wily Technology Team to Deliver Comprehensive
Java Performance Management Solution
Industry's First Integrated Java Performance Manager
and High Performance Java Virtual Machine
San Francisco — JavaOne Conference — June 6,
2000 — Wily Technology, Inc., the industry leader in
production Java performance management and Tower Technology
Corporation, developer of performance leading Java Virtual
Machines, today announced that they will team to provide
unparalleled Java performance for production Web application
environments.
Tower will start offering its speedy TowerJ JVM with Wily's
Introscope, the only Java Management Software designed to
run on a live production Website. This powerful combination
is the first integration of a production Java performance
manager with a JVM.
"We want to enhance our total solution by providing
our customers the ability to better manage the performance
of their Java server applications," said Madison Cloutier,
vice president of marketing at Tower. "By integrating
our performance leading Java virtual machine with Introscope,
we can make it easier for all of our customers to fine tune
their applications for maximum scalability and ongoing performance
management." Wily's Introscope is the only
Web Application Performance Manager that can monitor live
production Websites. The combination of a Java Web Application
Server and Introscope lets eBusinesses manage performance
throughout the entire application life cycle. Introscope's
Easy-to-Understand Dashboards allow production centers to
see how each Java component is operating and interacting
with all other components including the Java Web Application
Server. With near-zero overhead, Introscope can monitor live
production systems —enabling Web application providers
to find production bottlenecks before their customers see
them.
"The truly exciting part of this partnership is the
vast expanse of knowledge that can now be gathered about
your production Web application," said Lewis Cirne,
Founder and CEO of Wily Technology. "By identifying
the key performance metrics which affect your business's
critical Java applications and viewing them in TowerJ specific
Dashboards in Introscope, customers will have an unparalleled
view into the inter-relations of all components of their
production Web application."
The outlined relationship includes several steps —reciprocal
support, consulting services, and reselling.
TowerJ and Introscope will support each other out of the
box and will include customized PowerPacks and Dashboards
displaying the specific critical performance metrics that
most affect a customer's applications. These Dashboards created
by Tower Technology's Java performance experts and Wily Technology
system engineers show exactly what is happening inside Web
applications running on TowerJ platforms.
Tower's e-Performance Service group will use Introscope's
custom Dashboards for TowerJ to tune their Java Virtual Machine
deployments at customer sites to increase the speed of even
the fastest Websites and Web Applications and to provide
ongoing operations performance management.
Tower and Wily are working on relationship that will allow
customers to purchase Introscope as a part of a TowerJ solution
to help them streamline their "development to production" processes,
as well as fine tune their production implementations.
