Keynote Monitors Web 2.0 Apps

SAN MATEO, Calif. -- Keynote Systems, the global leader in Internet and mobile test and measurement services, has announced the general availability of Transaction Perspective High Frequency, the ideal solution and price point for operational monitoring of rich internet applications involving Java, Flash, AJAX, Web services, and other advanced Web technologies.

Transaction Perspective High Frequency has been designed expressly for Web operations, IT management and content developers who desire high frequency Web performance measurements while still using Keynote's True Experience technology which utilises Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser to accurately monitor rich Web 2.0-style Internet applications.

"We're now able to provide four times the frequency of measurements of Keynote's flagship Transaction Perspective 7.0 service for the same monthly subscription price, and all with only a slight loss of fidelity," said Vik Chaudhary, vice president of product management and corporate development."This release acknowledges what's most important for today's Web Operations staff - operational monitoring of Web 2.0 applications that requires being able to see what's actually happening through a real browser."

Steven Smith, CIO of AccuWeather.com said, "Keynote Transaction Perspective High Frequency provides us with invaluable data for ensuring our site is responsive and reliable for visitors 24/7. We have worked extremely hard the last few years to provide visitors to AccuWeather.com the most comprehensive understanding of weather occurring around the country in near real time. This has required us to add a great deal of rich interactivity to the site including clickable geographic and satellite maps of all kinds,"Smith continued. "The fact that Transaction Perspective High Frequency uses a real Internet Explorer browser to take its measurements is extremely important to us since that's the only way you can capture a complete and accurate understanding for the experience of the majority of actual site visitors. And with the ability for us to receive rich transaction measurements four times an hour, for the same price, the product is that much more attractive and useful to us - it's the perfect solution for operational monitoring of rich Internet applications."
