New and Enhanced Features in 4.1.11.35
NetStorm
- Use Script from any Project: From 4.1.11 onwards, you can specify scripts present in any project in any scenario. This removes the restriction in previous releases, which required user to specify a script of the same project as that of the scenario.
- Group based settings: IP management settings can now be specified per group. This will allow users to set different source IP settings and server host mapping settings for different groups.
- Space Encoding in URL: Users can now encode space and special characters present in URLs. This feature ensures that requests sent by NetStorm (or NetCloud) are similar to the request sent by browsers.
- Password Encryption: Passwords captured during script recording are now stored in encrypted format. These encrypted passwords are decrypted during the test run, at run-time, before being sent over the network.
- Enhancements in Replay Access Log: From 4.1.11 onwards, users can parameterize time stamps used in the Replay Access Log feature.
- HTTP/HTTPS Requests in WebSocket Session: User can now send HTTP / HTTPS data within a WebSocket session.
- Creating Script using REST API: User can now create script from Rest API. In JSON, we need to provide Project, Sub-Project, Script name, Page name, URLs, and Headers details.
- RDT Support: This feature provides an environment for testing a webpage from different services, i.e., Android, iOS and desktop. Overall and detailed drilldown statistics are captured for the webpage and displayed.
RBU/NVSM
- Full Cookie Support in RBU: From 4.1.11 onwards, cookies can be transmitted in HTTP request domain-wise via inline URLs.
- DOM Content Checkpoint Enhancement: Elements of webpage such as attributes and CSS properties can now be validated while running NetStorm test with RBU/NVSM configuration.
- Uploading file on an application (server) through RBU/NVSM: User can now upload any data file during a RBU / SM configuration test. The path from where the file is uploaded is captured during script recording.
- Domain Based Timing Stats: A user can now view statistics for the different domains that are hit during an RBU based test run.
NetOcean
- Disable Service / Enable Service in RTC: Any HTTP service can be disabled or enabled at run-time in NetOcean without restarting server. This is used to simulate the condition of getting the service up / down at any point of time in application server.
- RTC in Binary / Regular Expression Search Parameter: Binary / RE search parameter can be added / removed at run-time in any HTTP service in NetOcean without restarting NetOcean.
- Option to Disable CONNECT method: This contains fixes for events where a 403 response was received when HTTP and HTTPS requests are sent across with the reverse proxy settings disabled through the “CONNECT” method.
- Mock Response supported from GUI: There is a support added from GUI side for mock response. User can set the status code of any service and corresponding percentage of the request received.
- Connection Timeout Simulation: This is a new feature introduced in NetOcean. It will simulate the connection time-out for any third party server from application server. In this feature, connection of NetOcean from application server can be timed-out at current time or at any scheduled time in future.
- HTTP2 Multiplexing Support in NO: In this feature, NetOcean will get the HTTP2 request streams randomly for any stream ID and NetOcean will send the response as soon as it gets the end stream for any stream.
- WSDL/Swagger Support: This feature is used for importing all the Services in NetOcean, which are exposed by Client through WSDL / Swagger.
NetCloud
- Improvements in Test Start Time: Time taken to start a NetCloud test has been significantly reduced in 4.1.11. Several tasks are now performed in parallel culminating in a faster test startup.
- Different Progress Interval for Different Products: Progress Interval is the interval after which the data is collected from every NVM / child to parent and displayed in progress report and GUI to visualize in graphs.
In previous builds, default progress interval for all the products was 10 seconds. To run test(s) with good statistics, user needed to provide different progress interval manually for different products. Therefore, to overcome this manual effort, different progress interval is set for different products.
NetStorm – 10 seconds
NetCloud – 30 seconds
NetOcean – 60 seconds
NetDiagnostics – 60 seconds
NetVision – 60 seconds
- Dynamic server IP data: User can now view the rate of requests sent to the edge server by NetCloud load generators. This will help in analyzing root cause of high response time from particular locations.
NetDiagnostics
ND Core
- Flowpath Message Redesign: This feature is for generating method sequence blob with exit records only. This will improve the performance of the system by reducing the amount of data being transferred.
- WebSocket Protocol Support: WebSocket protocol support for NDC – Agent communication. Support is provided to make the communication more secure and to communicate on HTTP port 80/443.
Config UI
- Auto Discover for Dot Net Agent: Auto Discovery feature of the ND Configuration UI loads the agent settings of the respective selected agent for the instrumentation purpose. Support is provided for creation of Instrumentation Profile by the data discovered by the Agent through Auto Discover.Auto Discover feature helps in browsing all the loaded classes in an application for instrumentation purposes. Now support is provided for auto discovery of instrumentation in Dot Net applications also.
- Enhancements in Instrumentation and RTC: User can now edit an instrumentation profile at run time. For all profiles, which contains edited instrumentation profile, the request for RTC will be sent to each level (Topology, Tier(s), Server(s) and Instance(s)) where the instrumentation profile is attached to the profile. A ‘Detail’ button is introduced to get the details about the instrumentation profile.
- Custom Data Response Header support: Enhancement in custom data capturing configuration to capture data from HTTP session i.e. based on the Response Header.
- Response Headers Support in Business Transactions: Business transaction can now be captured based on the multiple request header values. In existing design, there was a limitation that transactions could not be split, based on these values. Although, multiple requests could be mapped in a single transaction with different values. Now this limitation is removed and multiple Business transactions can be configured by changing the header values only.
- Read Topology from file System: This feature reads the topology from the file system which helps the user to apply configuration in the Auto Scaling environment, where server and instance(s) go up or down.
- Import/Export of Profile: This feature reduces the user effort to create similar profiles on different machines as now he/she can first export the selected profile and then copying the zip folder on the desired machine and importing the same zip folder.
- Auto instrumentation support for Dot Net agent: Auto-Instrumentation feature is used for auto-detection by Agent without providing any instrumentation profile. Based on classes / methods coming in stack samples of the application, instrumentation of classes and methods will be done. This feature is very useful for any new environment for exploring new Integration Point calls, thread calls, and making specific instrumentation profile for any environment.
Monitors
- Run-time Changes of Monitors on Pre-discovered Servers: Earlier, when we used to add JSON at run-time, then the monitors were applied only on newly discovered servers but not on the existing active servers present in topology. Now, when JSON is added at run-time, it is applied on all active servers present in topology.
- Disabling Monitor Graphs: This feature allow user to remove graph from a monitor. This will reduce number of graphs to be visible in UI.
- Framework to Support New ND Monitors without Code Change: A framework is provided to support addition of any new ND monitors without code changes.
Java Agent
- Asynchronous Web Transactions in Tomcat, Jetty, and WebLogic based on Async Servlet 3.0: This feature is related to servlet 3.0 and is used for complete async transaction. Methods – “complete” and “dispatch” are invoked in one of the child thread spanned from main transaction.
Async transactions in Servlet 3.0 does not require a dedicated container thread with each request to wait for completion of all tasks. Due to this, overall response time capturing in ND needed a special handling for the completion events of Async transaction. Which is generic in design and can be configured according to different-different implementations. Default set of configuration covers all major container implementation of Async servlet 3.0 specification.
- Generating Method Call Flow using Exit Record Only:
- Capturing methods taking time in all slow/vslow flow paths
- Support for method time filter in flow path
This feature supports generation of method sequence blob with exit records only; so that exact sequence of call can be traced without any data is discarded even though method was called.
There were few design limitations like implementing method filters based upon the response time in instrumented and non-instrumented sessions captured by ND. To overcome this limitation, now agent will capture only the method exit records in seq Block. After this, seq block size is reduced in raw_data and below method filters are possible now:
- Discard methods having very low response time in instrumented sessions.
- Capture method having high response time even in non-instrumented sessions so that slow, and very slow transactions have good method calling tree to analyze issues.
- Capturing time taken by container before and after entry point invocation in tomcat and WebLogic (queue time): This addresses a discrepancy in the actual response time and the response time reported by the agent. This applies when the Queue time in the point of actual request received and the point from which the agent starts instrumenting the request times are not equal. Queue time captures the time spend in a container queue before the actual execution starts for a request. In high load, generally Container queue time increases due to unavailability of worker threads.
- Automatic Detection of Play Framework Entry Point: In case of Play framework, there was the dependency of the route file of the application. We were needed to ask the route file of the application from the client to find NDEntrypoint for Play Framework application. Therefore, to overcome this dependency, with this feature, we can automatically detect entry points of Play framework application.
Play framework entry points are configured in routes file, which maps entry methods with incoming URL. In older releases, entry point needs to be configured manually from routes file, before monitoring any Play framework based application. Now NDAgent is capable of detecting all entry points automatically. No manual configurations are needed.
- New Integration Point Support for Google Big Table and Big Query
- Redis Callouts Filter: This feature is related to filtering method of Redis command. This filter removes unnecessary method which were earlier being instrumented and being marked as integration point call.
- BT Support Based on HTTP Header Values: In existing design, there was a limitation that transactions could not be splitted based upon the values. Although, multiple requests could be mapped in a single transaction with different values. Now, this limitation is removed and multiple Business transactions can be configured by changing header values only.
Node JS Agent
- NodeJS 9.x Version Support: This includes support for latest NodeJS version (NodeJS 9.x version) and implementation of NodeJS agent with this version.
- Support for Heap Dump and CPU Profiling for Node JS is provided with all existing UI options.
- Heap dumps can now be taken in small to large sizes (7 – 800 MB) and saving the same on the server side, with no impact on the performance of the product.
- Generating Method Call Flow using Exit Record only:
- Capturing methods taking time in all slow/vslow flow paths
- Support for method time filter in flow path
This feature supports generation of method sequence blob with exit records only; so that exact sequence of call can be traced without any data gets discarded even though method was called.
DotNet Agent
- Enhancements in New Hotspot Design: All threads can be captured in hotspots, which are involved in application’s transaction.
- Auto Instrumentation of .NET Classes / Methods: Instrumentation process in NDAgent has been automated means it can be auto-detected by Agent without giving any instrumentation profile also. Based on classes / methods coming in stack samples of the application, user can perform instrumentation of classes and methods.
Web Dashboard
- Audit Log: These security logs capture users’ activity and display details of currently logged in users, such as user name, session Id, IP address from where user has accessed, activity date / time, and activity description. It mainly covers logging of object level Add, modify and delete events. E.g. a new favorite save, update and deletion should be logged. After these changes, only single user is allowed to login using the same username at one point of time. In case the user is already logged in with same username, on login again, he/she will get an option to close the previously running session forcefully and then login.
- Catalogue Management: Catalogue is defined as a collection of graphs. This catalogue is saved at a common place, so that it can be used with different modules of Web Dashboard like Favorites, Alert, Template, Pattern Matching, etc. by just attaching the catalogue as per requirement. It will help the user to create a graph catalogue one time and use it across multiple objects. Catalogue management UI allows user to manage (add / edit / delete) graph catalogue objects effectively from a single place.
- Open Related Members: Feature to open all related metrics by its hierarchy. If user selects “open related members for server” then it will open all metrics, which has same Tier and same Server of selected entity.
- Overlay Support in Widgets (Alert): Overlay Alerts support is provided for displaying stats of the alert generated in the graphs. User will get the alert events from Alert History. Based on its time stamp, user will get annotations on the graph, to show the different types of Alerts (Critical / Major / Minor / Normal) at different point of time.
- Auto Fit Option in Widget: This feature fits all widgets in visible area by re-sizing them automatically using “Auto Fit” option. It helps the user to view all the widgets in panel without scrolling. It automatically decreases the size of widgets to fit it in visible area and eliminates scrolling.
- Show Prefix and Suffix with Value in Data Widget ($, MB/GB, M/B): User can add Prefix and Suffix from Advance setting in Data Widget. This will help in showing the units of the data shown in data widget prominently.
- Edit Label of Y-axis in Dual Graph: Using this feature, user can edit Y-axis of Dual Axis graph from Advance settings of Widget Setting.

- Optimization in Dynamic metadata entries (eg. js error, xhr etc.): In this feature, first dynamic entries are stored in csv file then it will move into DB.
- Storage Priority in Multi disk: Allows to prioritize disk partitions in multi disk setup. This enhancement is implemented to overcome the limitation of the HPD stops with core dump in case of disk full.
- Form Analytics – capturing filters: An enhancement is implemented to apply filters on the forms and its fields that needs to be captured.
- JS Error – Beautify JS and highlight the error line: Addition of new JS Editor mode where page details can be viewed for selected source file. Multiple files can be viewed using this mode. A new feature – Beautify Source File, can be used to highlight the error lines in the source file and to quickly open different file references from the JS Editor Tab.
- XHR Group Enhancement: Grouping of similar XHR to reduce the data from the database.
- NV Extension (Replay) to change User Agent and Cookie: An extension to change the User Agent from the Replay window is provided.
- Monitor – Event stats by segment: New monitor is introduced to monitor the events on the session having some user segment.
- Revenue Analytics: This feature helps in understanding the correlation between application performance (page performance) and revenue. Currently it is using two major page performance metrics – “onLoad” and “domInteractive”. Page wise performance vs revenue gain analysis helps in prioritizing the page performance improvement. It helps in predicting revenue gain by improving page performance by x (Sec).
- OCX Data Filtering on Browser: Enhancement to capture interesting sessions (in which an event is occurred) to reduce the overhead on NetVision.
- Creation and Execution of Script through NV Session: NetVision has the feature to export the sessions in script. In this, scripts are created from the recorded NV session. Then, user can export the script for the same session or multiple sessions and execute these scripts with the help of NetStorm. When the scripts are executed, sessions are recorded for the same scripts in NV.
- Report builder and Reports in Mail: In this feature, Configuration files i.e. JSON files for every client is created based on their requirements. Now, user can change the configurations according to their requirements. Previously, all the changes was on java side for which for every change we need to deploy jar in the env box. This feature will help us to overcome this issue.
- Navigation Analytics: Navigation analytics helps in understanding the flow of users (traffic) on an application. It is helpful in identifying pages having high exit rate. It helps in identifying most taken path, least taken path etc. It has two main sections:
- View Flow Report
- Navigation Flow Report
View Flow Report: It visualizes traffic on an application using Sankey chart. It visualizes the traffic with different – different dimensions as entry point. Supported dimensions are – OS, Browser, Device Type, Location, and Referral. It identifies most taken flow and least taken flow. It also identifies most taken and least Converted Flow. This improves the Exit rate from such flow and increases the conversion rate. It provides multi-level Drilldown to understand the flow in more detail.
Navigation Flow: It visualizes how user is interacting with a particular page. It provides the details, such as how user is coming to that page. (i.e. Entry Page), how user is proceeding further from that page, how many % of users are exiting from that page. User can apply filter to understand the behavior on different-different dimensions (i.e. OS, Browser etc.).
- Similar Session Search: This feature helps in searching sessions with similarity in term of user activity. User can select sequence of pages, user-action, or event. Pages, User-Action or event can be selected from any exiting session just by clicking filter bag icon. User can also specify the filter manually by Filter Bag toolbar. In addition, it supports other session level filters along with user activity sequence.
- Page Filter in NVApp: Filtered pages can be visualize on scatter chart. It can be drawn on any page performance metric (eg. onLoad, domInteractive, dns, tcp, etc). It provides Tabular view with side view support, which makes easy to switch pages. It supports all major filters with smart search (including URL and referral). Now, it is to filter by performance metric value (or range).
- Auto Pattern Identification – URL and Domain: In some web applications, Http URL can contain Random Number or Timestamp, Product/Category/Department Name etc. These kind of URL creates following issues:
- Too many metadata entries pointing to same kind of URL.
- Issue in aggregate analysis (as all the URL will be considered so aggregate report cannot help for such URLs)
To handle the above issues, we added feature of auto detection of URL pattern in Http Request (HPD) and Resource Parser.
- Global filter for Channel & User Segment: Added a global level filter for channel and user segment. It will be applicable across NVApp For example: Session Filter / Page Filter / Page Performance Detail etc.
NetForest
- Support to create Input, Filter, and Output file from GUI: User can create Input, Filter, and Output file from GUI and dump into database. This feature is also used to create aliases.
- Admin UI Enhancements: Support is provided to create user, manage users, and provide accessibility / permissions to charts and dashboards.
