How to simplify the monitoring of multi-cloud environmentseG Innovations
According to Gartner, 75% of enterprise customers have adopted a multi-cloud strategy. While this is good from an organizational and resilience standpoint, the increased complexity, management and monitoring could reduce or even outweigh the benefits.
For ITOps, multi-cloud deployments are now a reality. They have more services to monitor, more dashboards to keep an eye on, no common console and potentially higher MTTR. The adoption of microservices and Kubernetes makes the problem more challenging.
In this webinar, how multi-cloud monitoring and end-to-end visibility can be simplified by walking you through how to troubleshoot common performance problems in a multi-cloud setup in minutes.
How to get full, end-to-end visibility into your multi-cloud or hybrid cloud deployment so you can visually see where the root-cause of the performance problem is
Troubleshooting a live microservices web-application deployed on-premises, AWS and Azure, and a tech stack that includes Kubernetes, Docker and Java
How to find the real-user experience of your multi-cloud application and see what issues your users in different geo-locations are facing

How to use business transaction tracing to identify the database query or micro-service that is impacting application performance
Migrating to the Cloud – Is Application Performance Monitoring still required?eG Innovations
As more businesses adopt cloud technologies for their various benefits it must be noted that not all cloud offerings are the same and provide different services or infra SLA. Do you know that not all SLA from cloud providers mean your application will be ensured similar availability?
Depending on whether you are leveraging Saas, Paas, Iaas, etc to deliver your applications, you will have a different level of visibility and control of how you manage performance and deliver the user experience expected by your users.
Join the session and find out what remains within your responsibility and how you can monitor the various cloud infrastructure/services to give yourself the needed visibility to deliver the expected user experience without over-provisioning to ensure better performance.
Key criteria for choosing APM solutions for the next normal: analysis of surv...eG Innovations
Historically, Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools have mainly been focused on providing code level visibility for web applications. IT managers have had to deploy these solutions to complement infrastructure monitoring solutions to get end-to-end visibility across applications and services.
To understand how the APM needs of organizations have evolved in the next normal, eG Innovations and DevOps Institute conducted a survey. Over 900 software professionals - DevOps engineers, SREs, ITOps teams and system admins – shared their knowledge and thinking.
We’ve invited Eveline Oehrlich, Chief Research Officer at DevOps Institute and ex-Forrester VP and Research Director to join us to dissect the results of this survey. Eveline will share her experiences and knowledge within the APM space, discuss trends and will discuss what the future of APM should look like. Also joining the discussion will be Arun Aravamudhan, Head of Java APM and Web Products and web products at eG Innovations.
We are looking forward to you joining this webinar. Here are some highlights on what we will cover:
- Why APM is no longer just about code-level analysis
- The need for converged application and infrastructure monitoring
- The strategy for Kubernetes and cloud monitoring in the next normal
- The challenges with native cloud monitoring options
- Application performance management has gained management attention
Register now and learn the current state of APM adoption and how business needs in the next normal will change how APM should be leveraged.
How Citrix Admins can get a Virtual AssistanteG Innovations
By offering a unified place for people to access any app, whether SaaS, web, mobile or virtual digital workspaces have become mission-critical for the new way of work. As digital workspaces evolve in scale, complexity and business importance Citrix Admins need unified visibility and actionable insights to diagnose and resolve performance issues across the entire IT environment—both physical and virtual; both on-premises and cloud.
This requires deep Citrix domain expertise along with end-to-end visibility across Citrix and non-Citrix tiers; which can quickly overwhelm most Citrix administrators. Citrix Admins need a virtual assistant to:
• Proactively monitor digital workspace user experience
• Automatically isolate and remediate performance issues
• Align capacity to changing business and user requirements
• Improve user experience with embedded analytics
Join John Worthington, Director Customer Success and Nanda Kumar, Director Solutions Engineering at eG Innovations, for an action-packed demonstration of how eG Enterprise is the digital assistant every Citrix Admin needs.
Make synthetic monitoring a critical part of your IT monitoring strategy: Why...eG Innovations
Many IT monitoring tools fail in the real-world because they are reactive to events that have happened. The first time the IT team knows there is a problem is when the service desk sees a pile of tickets with users complaining that their “application is slow.”
Adding a layer of synthetic monitoring can make ITOps go from being reactive to proactive. This helps the ITOps team to cut down on the number of service desk tickets because you can see where the bottlenecks are before end-users even notice.
While logon simulators are ubiquitous for Citrix and VMware Horizon environments, users really care about whether the applications they use in their job such as SAP, Office, Epic or Salesforce are responsive and usable.
Join us for this webinar where you will learn:
- How to record and automate REAL workflows to test any application – web apps or thick apps within a published desktops like Citrix, VMware Horizon, Amazon WorkSpaces, Microsoft AVD, etc.
- How to check that web apps used by your employees are not just responsive but working as expected – this is critical for businesses that rely on SaaS applications like Office 365 and Salesforce
- How to validate that employees are able to logon to published desktops AND perform routine tasks in applications like SAP and Epic
- How to correlate the performance of the application with the underlying IT infrastructure to determine if bottlenecks are on the users’ network, in the third-party application or within your infrastructure
If you are struggling to be proactive, or to shift from monitoring resources to monitoring the digital experience of your users, then you need to attend this webinar to see just how easy it is to get started with synthetic monitoring.

• Troubleshoot with automated and built-for-Citrix monitoring tools
How to consolidate Citrix Monitoring in a Single Pane of GlasseG Innovations
A recent survey by eG Innovations and xenappblog found that 68% of organizations are using 2-5 different tools for monitoring and managing their Citrix infrastructure. Multiple monitoring tools make it expensive to operate and troubleshoot IT infrastructure issues. Furthermore, a lot of manual effort is required to diagnose and fix performance issues.
Join Richard Faulkner, Enterprise Solutions Architect and CTP from Conversant Group, and John Worthington, Director of Customer Success at eG Innovations, and learn how you can get a single-pane-of-glass view of your Citrix infrastructure – from the client end to the virtual desktops/apps and even the backend applications.
See how you can:
--Monitor and get proactive alerts on the experience seen by Citrix users
--Track the performance of every layer and every tier of your Citrix infrastructure: NetScalers, StoreFronts, Virtual apps and desktops, WEM, PVS, License servers, etc.
--Troubleshoot in a single click and identify where the root-cause of a problem is: network, or storage, or virtualization, or the Citrix stack?
--Get insights to right-size and optimize your Citrix deployment

Digital Workspaces and the Customer ExperienceeG Innovations
Customer experience is driving the digital age, and with the number of digital workers exploding the bar for assuring the digital user experience is quickly being raised — and not every enterprise is ready.
Fragmented monitoring approaches can make it all but impossible to connect the dots between complex, heterogeneous technical ecosystems, and the customer’s digital journey. The digital workspace can be a logical first step towards digital transformation but connecting the dots between ‘X-data’ (experience or XLA data) and ‘O-data’ (operational or SLA data) is not trivial.
In this webinar, John Worthington, Director of Customer Success at eG Innovations and an XLA Master, shows us:
-What role the Experience Level Agreement plays in the digital workspace
-The importance of unified, end-user-oriented views of digital workspace performance
-How converged APM/IPM can accelerate your customer experience journey

How to Get the Fastest Possible Citrix Logon Times?eG Innovations
Logon is a user's first interaction with the Citrix digital workspace service, and hence, a slow logon can influence a user's opinion of the service in a way that no other metric can. Therefore, logon time is the #1 key performance indicator (KPI) in Citrix environments.
Slow logons have an impact not just on user perception, but also on productivity. When each logon takes minutes — maybe on multiple systems — it results in lost work time and costs the business. So, it is imperative that logons be as quick and non-intrusive as possible. But how can we make this happen?

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

7. Challenge #3: Right-Sizing for ROI
Throwing hardware at desktop performance
problems causes cost overruns and kills ROI
Underinvestment causes performance issues
How to find the right balance? And where do
I invest with laser focus to efficiently enable
performance and scale up to amortize backend
infrastructure?
8. Challenge #4: Compliance
How to ensure compliant user
access to a range of hybrid desktop
resources and services
Applications (including licensing)
Data
URLs
Peripherals (i.e. printer, portable storage
devices and writable media, etc.)
Compliance and remediation of
delivery infrastructure
9. Challenge #5: Support Complexity
Unlike many of today’s consumer experiences,
enterprise users and first line support are not
properly enabled for self-service
Limited visibility into desktop configuration
issues
Maintaining legacy configuration tools
(i.e. scripts, group policy, etc.)
