AIMS

AIMS Innovation

We didn’t jump on AI and machine learning when it became The Next Big Thing – we had it as our starting point, and took a hard look at how we could best apply it to solve real-world problems. AIMS applies machine learning technology to provide deep insights into transaction flow through on-premise, cloud and hybrid. AIMS automatically generates a dynamic 360° map of all the hidden corners of your IT systems and data for predictive anomaly detection and real-time insight into business critical processes. Companies using AIMS slash time spent on manual monitoring and troubleshooting, freeing resources to drive business innovation and build competitive advantage through IT. AIMS enables IT teams to impact business outcomes by making it easier to communicate system insights and performance data with non-technical business stakeholders.

Undo

Empowering developers to understand their codebase and fix bugs faster with time travel debugging. UDB is the leading time travel debugger for Linux C/C++ applications. Resolve complex software defects in development or in production up to 10x faster. Debugging software failures takes time. It slows down development and disrupts customers. What if you could record your program's execution as it fails and replay the recording offline (any time, anywhere) to see exactly what happened? LiveRecorder is the leading enterprise-grade Software Failure Replay platform. Time Travel Debugging greatly improves team productivity in development. It is also ideal to debug test failures. Travel forward and backward in time to inspect the program state. Undo enables developers to see through that complexity and create better software faster. With Undo’s time travel debugging, developers no longer need to waste time figuring out what the code is doing.

DX Application Performance Management

Broadcom

Improve app performance and deliver flawless user experiences with unmatched insight and intelligence. With the increased complexity of today’s modern applications and the growing need to deliver a near-flawless customer experience - traditional Application Performance Management (APM) solutions often fall short in delivering the visibility needed to fix problems before they impact the end user. Instead, APM solutions must evolve to include AIOps capabilities to spot anomalies earlier, predict behavior, and enable informed automatic corrective actions. DX Application Performance Management (formerly CA Application Performance Management or CA APM) is fully integrated with our AIOps solution to correlate and analyze data across users, applications, infrastructure and network services, giving you real-time insight into the health of key business services. DX APM uses advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to automatically identify the probable cause of an issue.
