Download or read book Computational Network Application Tools for Performance Management written by Millie Pant and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-18 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a range of important theoretical and practical issues in the field of computational network application tools, while also presenting the latest advances and innovations using intelligent technology approaches. The main focus is on detecting and diagnosing complex application performance problems so that an optimal and expected level of system service can be attained and maintained. The book discusses challenging issues like enhancing system efficiency, performance, and assurance management, and blends the concept of system modeling and optimization techniques with soft computing, neural network, and sensor network approaches. In addition, it presents certain metrics and measurements that can be translated into business value. These metrics and measurements can also help to establish an empirical performance baseline for various applications, which can be used to identify changes in system performance. By presenting various intelligent technologies, the book provides readers with compact but insightful information on several broad and rapidly growing areas in the computation network application domain. The book’s twenty-two chapters examine and address current and future research topics in areas like neural networks, soft computing, nature-inspired computing, fuzzy logic and evolutionary computation, machine learning, smart security, and wireless networking, and cover a wide range of applications from pattern recognition and system modeling, to intelligent control problems and biomedical applications. The book was written to serve a broad readership, including engineers, computer scientists, management professionals, and mathematicians interested in studying tools and techniques for computational intelligence and applications for performance analysis. Featuring theoretical concepts and best practices in computational network applications, it will also be helpful for researchers, graduate and undergraduate students with an interest in the fields of soft computing, neural networks, machine learning, sensor networks, smart security, etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Network Performance Security: Testing and Analyzing Using Open Source and Low-Cost Tools gives mid-level IT engineers the practical tips and tricks they need to use the best open source or low cost tools available to harden their IT infrastructure. The book details how to use the tools and how to interpret them. Network Performance Security: Testing and Analyzing Using Open Source and Low-Cost Tools begins with an overview of best practices for testing security and performance across devices and the network. It then shows how to document assets—such as servers, switches, hypervisor hosts, routers, and firewalls—using publicly available tools for network inventory. The book explores security zoning the network, with an emphasis on isolated entry points for various classes of access. It shows how to use open source tools to test network configurations for malware attacks, DDoS, botnet, rootkit and worm attacks, and concludes with tactics on how to prepare and execute a mediation schedule of the who, what, where, when, and how, when an attack hits. Network security is a requirement for any modern IT infrastructure. Using Network Performance Security: Testing and Analyzing Using Open Source and Low-Cost Tools makes the network stronger by using a layered approach of practical advice and good testing practices. Offers coherent, consistent guidance for those tasked with securing the network within an organization and ensuring that it is appropriately tested Focuses on practical, real world implementation and testing Employs a vetted "security testing by example" style to demonstrate best practices and minimize false positive testing Gives practical advice for securing BYOD devices on the network, how to test and defend against internal threats, and how to continuously validate a firewall device, software, and configuration Provides analysis in addition to step by step methodologies

Download or read book Network Application Performance Analysis Hero s Guide to Troubleshooting Slow Transactions written by Gary Kaiser and published by Dynatrace. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide presents a repeatable methodology for troubleshooting poorly performing applications. It is designed to help the network analyst focus on key network-visible behaviors that influence application performance, with the goal of identifying exactly where and why transaction delays occur—without the distraction of costly red herrings. In many cases, the methodology presented here is applied as a drill-down or deep-dive analysis from a symptom or fault domain identified by a complementary application or network monitoring solution, especially where ambiguity is unacceptable. In other cases it is applied independently, where performance problems may remain invisible to or undiagnosable by monitoring solutions. It is designed to address typical web or client/server business applications—the types where poor performance results in user complaints, diminished productivity and lost revenue opportunities. Perhaps most importantly, it highlights the tight interaction between network conditions, server configurations and application behaviors, understanding the critical importance of effective collaboration between network, system and application teams. The guide includes relevant TCP, network and application background, and while it references Dynatrace Network Analyzer as the tool example, the guide will be useful even without the product. I trust you will find this book useful and hope you enjoy reading it. Please feel free to contact me with questions, corrections, concerns, anecdotes, or suggestions. Gary Kaiser
