How It Works

Click the schema to enlarge
    ALM Performance consists of 3 main components:
  • Settings application - this is the configuration tool for the ALM Performance, allows you to add or delete monitored servers and configure the server’s test and parameters
  • Graphical component - this is the graphical dashboard of the system.
  • Monitoring service - this is the heart the system. the monitoring service is the component that schedule, run tests and analyze the result.

ALM Performance can monitor all Linux, UNIX and windows versions and it does so in a non-intrusive and secure manner, using advanced SSH protocol. ALM Performance is installed on a Windows host and can be run on-premise or it can be run as a cloud service where we run and manage the system while it remotely monitors your servers.
