Amberpoint Express™

The Easiest Way to Ensure Web Services Meet
Enterprise Standards

Organizations building Web services first encounter management requirements at the tail end of the development process.

  • Development teams must ensure that their Web services perform to enterprise standards. They must understand runtime behavior, test and diagnose for functional accuracy, and analyze and fine-tune performance
  • The transfer of Web services from the development team to the production support staff is typically inefficient and often contentious

However, restrained budgets and limited resources typically prevent organizations from implementing or building management tools for early projects. In part, this is because current approaches require special coding and don't scale with enterprise-class solutions.

Introducing AmberPoint Express

AmberPoint Express is a cost-effective means for Web service developers to incrementally measure, debug and fine-tune the performance and functionality of their Web services. Versions of AmberPoint Express are available for both Java and the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Browser-based interface delivers a highly interactive user experience.

AmberPoint Express is seamlessly integrated with the developer's experience. It automatically configures the management system for each Web service completed by the developer. And it requires no coding changes to the Web services themselves.

  • Performance Monitoring: View Web service performance in real time with easy-to-digest charts for response time, throughput and SOAP fault counts
  • Analysis: Gain a quick understanding of performance bottlenecks and errors from drilling down into SOAP messages from performance graphs
  • Diagnosis: Inspect SOAP messages for content, faults and errors in an easy-to-read fashion to understand and debug anomalous Web service behavior
  • Testing: Resubmit messages from history or auto-generate new SOAP messages based on WSDL to fine-tune Web services
  • Integrated with Visual Studio .NET for point-and-click management of Web services built on the Microsoft .NET Framework
  • Available at no charge!
