Wily Technology Sets Industry Direction for Enterprise Application Management

Company Debuts Wily 5, Leading Application Management Solution to Improve IT Agility and Ensure Business Continuity

Gartner Symposium / ITxpo, San Diego, CA — March 30, 2004 — Wily Technology, the leader in enterprise application management, today announced Wily 5, the next-generation of the industry's preeminent Enterprise Application Management solution. The cornerstone of Wily 5 is Introscope® 5.0, the latest edition of the first and most successful tool for managing J2EE applications built on Java application server platforms. Today, Wily is also announcing support for the JBoss® Open source Application Server, as well as a new line of Introscope PowerPacks™ for IBM® WebSphere® Business Integration adapters. Wily 5 is the first software solution to provide management visibility into the performance and availability of the entire J2EE application platform suite, including portal, application server and integration components. As a result, customers can achieve better customer service, more stable revenue streams, more reliable business processes, and higher IT productivity.

Introscope 5.0 is an enterprise application management solution that helps organizations ensure the performance and availability of their mission-critical applications and supporting systems. Introscope is the only platform-independent Java management solution that is fully compatible with any Java environment. With new fast-path navigation, Introscope customers can have intuitive dashboards which allow them to isolate problems even more rapidly by simply clicking on customized dashboard links. This allows both expert and non-expert users to more easily determine the source of performance issues throughout the J2EE application architecture.

"Wily is taking an important step forward with the release of Wily 5," said Vic Nyman, senior vice president of products and strategy at Wily Technology. "As J2EE adoption accelerates and enterprises deploy more and more business-critical applications in production environments, the need to manage and monitor complex and integrated applications dramatically increases. In addition, IT must share information about application performance across the organization. Wily's hallmark is its ability to provide deep, real-time visibility into the application environment so that enterprises can quickly monitor everyday availability and isolate application bottlenecks and failures — before they impact critical business processes and customer downtime. Introscope 5.0 delivers and exceeds on all these fronts."

"At The Northern Trust, we look to Wily and Introscope to help us manage our most critical production Web applications," said Jason Bonds, senior technical architect at The Northern Trust, a Wily customer and a leading provider of global custody, asset administration and investment management services. "Availability and performance are important for us to provide superior online customer service. We are very excited about this new version of Introscope. The new reporting features will be great, and the new fast-path dashboards will make it even easier to isolate application problems. Wily has consistently innovated to improve their products and they have been highly responsive to our growing application management needs."

In addition to the performance and collaboration enhancements to Introscope 5.0, key new features include:

  • New native reporting system offers improved collaboration by enabling application performance data to be shared with a broad class of users across the organization;
  • New fast-path user interface navigation that provides even faster problem solving;
  • First comprehensive application management solution for JBoss Open Source Application Server, to complement the existing support for all leading commercial platforms from BEA, IBM, Oracle, Sun, and others;
  • Integration with enterprise security solutions including LDAP and fine-grained user permissions will enable Introscope to be used by a greater number of users without additional administration;
  • Enhanced performance and scalability that addresses the rapidly accelerating adoption of J2EE applications on a large-scale; and
  • Simplified deployment capabilities to reduce time to value in managing large enterprise application portfolios.

Availability

Wily 5 will be generally available in mid-April 2004.
