Top 10 IT Performance Management Predictions for 2014-3

Application performance management (APM)

Application performance management (APM) will become virtualization-aware. Virtualization adoption will continue to grow in 2014. At the same time, though, enterprises are beginning to realize that virtualization is not just yet another infrastructure silo that can be operated and managed independently. In 2014, we will see enterprises start to include virtualization as an integral part of their application performance management initiatives. Monitoring and management tools will also need to do the same -- performance management and root-cause diagnosis tools will need to understand virtualization and its related dependencies to be effective.

In 2014, as organizations look to do more with less, IT performance management will be measured by business value. "Organizations are initiating many IT transformation projects to become more nimble, agile and cost-effective. For the success of these projects, organizations will need performance management solutions that are aligned with their IT strategy. Hence, performance management solutions that enable IT agility, end-user satisfaction and operations efficiency will be in demand," said Srinivas Ramanathan, CEO, eG Innovations.

eG Innovations predicts 2014 will see the following top 10 trends in IT performance management.
