On the 20th March 2017, AppDynamics was acquired by Cisco for $3.7B, the biggest M&A multiple for a company bought for over $1B. This acquisition reinforces Cisco’s strategic direction, shifting to software-centric solutions and analytics. AppDynamics’ real-time data platform will be correlated with Cisco’s data platforms over time, giving joint customers the richest end-to-end view (from business to user to app to infrastructure), allowing for better remediation and automation.
In this session, come and hear what’s next, as Tejaswi Redkar, Head of Products and Experience in the Cloud and Analytics Business Unit at Cisco and Adam Leftik, VP of Product Management, at AppDynamics, go deeper into the value Cisco and AppDynamics will bring. Tejaswi and Adam will detail:
- The announcement and its significance for the software and infrastructure industries
- How the acquisition will redefine application intelligence

How AppDynamics works
1 | Agent Deployment
Agents monitor end-to-end
application performance and collect
real-time metrics which are sent to a
controller.
2 | Application Mapping
Visual Flow Maps are automatically created and
updated dynamically across all digital
environments. Business Transactions are
automatically detected.

performance deviates from baseline.
4 | Actionable Insights
Detect anomalies. Establish health rules and
policies for intelligent alerting. Perform
diagnostics.

Editor's Notes
How does your app and brand stack up against the new user expectation bar? (facebook, Google)
So, how do you follow the customer throughout this complexity and change?
What’s important to the business?
The only constant is what your customers do...
That single touch of every user, every customer that sets off a transaction...an event that initiates millions of lines of code across hundreds of methods, dozens of services, and multiple data centers both in the public and private clouds...
CLICK: From login
CLICK: to Process payment
CLICK: to search to Withdraw funds
This is business transaction that connects your users to your app environment and your business.
AppDynamics’ real-time data platform will be correlated with Cisco’s data platforms over time and give joint customers the richest end-to-end view (from business to user to app to infrastructure) in real-time, allowing for better remediation and automation (across the data center, network and security) and smarter business decisions.
