J2EE Users To Reach Higher Level of Performance from Evolven's New Granular Configuration Solution

Dec. 29, 2010 - PRLog -- Evolven Software Inc., the pioneer of Granular Configuration Automation solutions, today announced their support for J2EE. Evolven will enable customers to achieve greater visibility into the granular configuration information of J2EE’s application infrastructure which can affect the availability and performance of IT environments where J2EE is running.

J2EE is designed for the mainframe-scale computing typical of large enterprises. Sun Microsystems (together with industry partners such as IBM) designed J2EE to simplify application development in a thin client tiered environment. J2EE simplifies application development and decreases the need for programming and programmer training by creating standardized, reusable modular components and by enabling the tier to handle many aspects of programming automatically.

Availability and performance of J2EE in the IT environment is critical for providing effective business service. With a unique ability to track the configuration parameters and detect changes and differences, no matter how minute, for J2EE, Evolven Comparison allows IT professionals to:

Reduce Production Outage Risk: Increase stability of releases and detect unauthorized changes to prevent outages and high impact incidents

Minimize System Downtime: Quickly pinpoint to an incident's root-cause and cut time to repair

Enhance Security & Compliance: Leverage granular visibility and audit-trail to meet demanding security and compliance requirements

The configuration parameters of J2EE are critical for providing effective business service. Accurately managing the configuration of J2EE is not an easy task considering the complexity of J2EE and the numerous configuration parameters involved with J2EE. J2EE includes thousands of different configuration parameters in which the misconfiguration or disregard of a single configuration setting can cause an incident with major impact on the entire IT environment and business service.

Evolven Comparison discovers granular configuration information for J2EE. Evolven Comparison's unique Comparison Engine™ includes a set of technologies that deliver clear, definitive configuration information related to J2EE, highlighting the critical root cause and its impact, allowing IT professionals to focus on what matters most.

Today’s modern business systems include interdependent layers of applications and infrastructure, and focusing on only one configuration or a small set leaves room for error, and ignores critical context and interdependencies. The Evolven Granular Configuration Automation solution, Evolven Comparison, focuses on the entire environment in order to ensure a stable business service that meets agreed to service levels.

Evolven Comparison analyzes and classifies configuration changes and differences, by their impact, for J2EE. Then Evolven Comparison prioritizes and highlights the changes and differences discovered in J2EE based on criticality, visually presenting the comparison results for fast and easy analysis. Insignificant changes and differences are ignored. Evolven Comparison even makes effective comparisons for J2EE Configurations of inherently different environments (e.g. test vs. production).
