Instana Overview

With today’s highly dynamic and complex cloud environments, the average cost of an hour of downtime can reach six figures and beyond1.
Traditional application performance monitoring (APM) tools simply aren’t fast enough to keep up or thorough enough to contextualize the issues identified. Also, they are typically limited to super users who must complete months of training to learn.
IBM Instana Observability goes beyond traditional APM solutions by democratizing observability so anyone across DevOps, SRE, platform engineering, ITOps and development can get the data they want with the context they need.
Instana automatically delivers continuous high-fidelity data at 1-second granularity and end-to-end traces with the context of logical and physical dependencies across mobile, web, applications and infrastructure.

Instana Features

Full-stack observability

A single, lightweight agent per host discovers all components and deploys sensors crafted to continuously monitor application performance, microservices, Kubernetes, databases, APIs, serverless and containers in real time with no sampling. Dashboards and visualizations contextualize interactions among all resources, while actionable insights help you take immediate action.

Remediation

Threshold-based smart alerts, automatic detection and correlation of events, issues and service incidents and automatic identification of each incident’s likely root cause result in the fastest mean time to resolution (MTTR).

Digital experience

Mobile app and website monitoring offers a unified data source for gaining a comprehensive understanding of user behavior and promptly resolving any frontend issues. This streamlined approach ensures maximum efficiency in troubleshooting problems.
