Dashboard

Cumulative Value of Request/Sec for Monitoring Purpose: This feature is introduced to plot a cumulative graph for sample count value in the derived graph.

Threshold Based Color Coding: Support for threshold-based color-coding for data widgets is provided. You can now configure the threshold values for Major and Critical conditions in the Widget Settings itself. When the graph value (Avg, Min, Max, Last Sample) satisfies the provided thresholds, then the Background color of the Data widget changes according to the condition is satisfied.

Performance Optimization in Data Fetching: This enhancement is related to performance optimization by creating data at Tomcat Startup and then fetching the data for REST API from it to reduce the response time. The configuration for TierGroupGraphMapping is now being read at tomcat startup only. Along with that, Data is created at Tomcat startup for some specific duration that is configurable and by default, it is 4 Hours and then while REST API is triggered for the configured duration then data will be fetched from there and it will be much faster than earlier.

Cache current aggregate GDF data for faster response: Currently, the aggregate data cache works for only aggr_1h partition, which is the default. When you apply another view by options like 10 min, it reads GDF data every time from disk. As normally 10 min aggregation used with options like Last_4_Hour, Last_6_Hours, etc., it uses the current partition GDF most of the time. So current partition GDF caching helps in creating response faster for some time periods which is used frequently. Similarly, it will cache current week/month GDF only. Now, the GDF (Merged) is cached for current day (10 min aggr)/current week/current month.

Support of SP Initiated Authentication with Ping One Identity Provider using IDP EndPoint URL: Earlier, IDP init sso URL was being used for SP authentication flow. Now, support of SP initiated authentication is provided using IDP endpoint URL. This sends the SAML request to the IDP endpoint, which then identifies the application request and starts the authentication process.

Monitors

POST Request Support in Generic Rest Extended Monitor: POST request support is provided in generic rest extended monitor to enable new dashboard data API to fetch data from the cache based on query pattern for multiple groups.

NetVision

Native App Overall Performance Report: You can now view the report of data for all native apps. To access this, go to Reports > Special Reports, and then select ‘Native App Overall Performance Report’ from the drop-down list of Reports. Provide the values for the required fields (similar to the fields in other special reports), and then generate the report to view the details.

AIOPS

Show pending Servers in Consolidated graph window for iprca node: Previously, only anomalous servers were added in consolidated graph window for iprca node. Now, pending incidents will also be added in that window.

Start of E2E graph from the UI tier: E2E graph will start from the UI tier following the transaction path to the root tier.

Open Bugs

These issues are intermittent.

Bug 95715: Performance|REST API|When the last 3 Days of cache is created already then also transInfo REST call is taking the time of 45 Minutes for the last 1-day data.

Bug 95423: Multi-DC | Derived Graph Issue : NAN value is coming for last sample while changing time period for derived graph creating using SUMCOUNT.
