Application Performance Means Business in the Digital Age (Ep. 18)

There was a time when the only people concerned with application performance were operations teams. And maybe the enterprise users frustrated by slow app performance. But today, anyone interested in the the performance of their business should be interested in the performance of their applications, says Abner Germanow. Germanow, who is Senior Director of Strategic Marketing and Campaigns at New Relic, says that now more than ever application performance has a direct impact on customer interactions, revenue generation and the overall performance of the business.

In this week's episode of Pivotal Insights, host Jeff Kelly and Germanow discuss the evolving role of application performance monitoring (APM) in cloud-native environments, the impact of microservices and DevOps on APM, how data is the great equalizer in ensuring application performance, and how Pivotal and New Relic are helping joint customers keep their cloud-native applications humming.
