What do IIS hangs, slow requests, errors, and high CPU have in common?

In the last several months, we’ve worked hard to provide automatic diagnostics for most application problems on the Microsoft web platform … hangs, request queuing, errors, high CPU, and so on.

Even though LeanSentry can automatically detect and and diagnoses many of these problems, it can sometimes it can be difficult to see how they all relate … and how they impact the overall health of your web application.

NEW: Alert layers!

Alert layers uses layers of bubbles to show you all your performance problems, and how they affect your application’s health … directly on the application’s health timeline!

Alert layers show you all the application problems and how they affect application health.

 

With these alert “bubbles”, you can instantly see where alerts took placehow they affected your request satisfaction in that moment, and how they related to other alerts.

This can often tell a more complete story then looking at each alert in isolation.

Usage tips: 
 1. Hover over any alert to show it on the graph. 
 2. Click the alert number to make the alert “sticky” so it does not go away when you hover over another one. Click again to hide it. 
 3. Hover over alert bubbles to see more information.
 4. Click a bubble to go to the alert page, and diagnose it!To check this out, simply log into your dashboard and pick an application.

More good stuff coming your way!

Next, we are working on improving our alert pages so they are easier to understand, and show you the problem diagnosis right away.
Watch for big improvements here next week!

Yours,

The LeanSentry Team
