BMC Software (News - Alert) has acquired Coradiant, a provider of end-user experience and Web application performance monitoring.
This acquisition is expected to “significantly” enhance BMC’s ability to offer businesses a 360-degree view of service performance -- from end-user experience and behavior to infrastructure.
“The addition of Coradiant’s Web application performance management capabilities to BMC’s Business Service Management platform establishes the industry’s most comprehensive solution for anticipating and proactively addressing the end-user experience requirements of our customers’ businesses,” said Paul Avenant, senior vice president for ESM solutions and brand management at BMC Software.
Based on Coradiant’s technology, the new BMC End User Experience Management solution, enables businesses and IT service managers to see and understand how application performance affects end-user behavior and the business. Company officials said that it provides complete visibility into real-time, end-to-end performance of enterprise, cloud and SaaS (News - Alert)-based applications.
With the addition of BMC’s End User Experience Management offering, users can view actual application performance and user behavior in real-time. Company officials said that this enables businesses to proactively monitor the interaction the average consumer has with the application.
Additionally, Coradiant also brings noteworthy partnerships, such as the one with Akamai (News - Alert), to deliver solutions that manage, optimize and ensure the value of application performance acceleration delivered via the cloud.
Willie Tejada, vice president, application and site acceleration at Akamai, said that the opportunity to connect the Coradiant solution with BMC’s broader proactive applications capabilities creates the potential for a whole new realm of value.
An aggressive product integration plan is already underway, according to BMC Software. The companies did not disclose the financial details of the acquisition agreement.
