- 5. The Upside • Quick Alert of Performace issues to prevent or reduce downtime • Profiling to help find those tricky bugs • Supports MongoDB and Redis
- 6. Cons • This is a pricy tool for those looking from a business standpoint. • A high volume of data to process in order to do a full analysis.
- 7. My Experience • Easy install and implementation into my code. • Nice to have access to a free version that gave full functionality
- 8. Final Thoughts This would be a great tool for someone working on an app that processes a very large amount of data between a server and a client. A bit of trouble to fully integrate with limited database compatability. If you have the spare funds to use this, I would recommend giving it a chance. Otherwise, not worth the investment.
