Here is an extract of the descriptions of each Application Advisor report.
Application Advisor Reports
Application Performance Analysis
This report provides detailed performance analysis for a selected application. It shows the distribution of performance events based on duration. It highlights the top 5 functionality areas that lead to response time SLA violations and provides
further details about the root cause of  performance slowdowns for each area. This report also provides an analysis of the top performance problems and groups those problems into application functionality areas.
Application Status
This report provides daily, weekly and monthly application status summaries. It shows major application activity and resource utilization KPI for a selected period in comparison to a dynamic baseline of previous periods.  For applications
that experience problems during a selected report period, it provides drilldown to a detailed timeline graph of problem events for the selected period. This report also highlights new problems for the period and the most critical problem for the period.
Problems Distribution Analysis
This report shows the distribution of performance, connectivity, security and code problems across all monitored applications, highlighting the applications that are most problematic. For the applications that contribute to the majority of problems,
this report provides more details by showing application components and external dependencies that are the root cause of those problems.
Summary Failure Analysis
This report provides a breakdown of problems by application. For each application, it lists the top 5 problems and shows them as a percentage of the total problems. This report is a perfect example of the 80-20 rule, where 80% of all failures
happen due to 20% of the problems. This report highlights the top problems and allows management to concentrate on resolving the problems that affect their applications the most.
Summary Performance Analysis
This report provides a breakdown of performance violations by application. For each application it lists the top 5 problems and shows them as a percentage of total performance violations. This report is a good example of the 80-20 rule, where
80% of all failures happen due to 20% of the problems. This report highlights the top problems and allows management to concentrate on resolving problems that affect their applications the most.
Summary User Analysis
This report highlights the application users who experience most of the problems. For each user the report shows performance, connectivity, security and application failure problems. For performance problems the reports shows the top 5 problematic
requests for the selected user and how the response time for that user compares to the average response time for the system.
Client Side Monitoring
Application AJAX Calls Analysis
This report provides detailed failure analysis for a selected application. It highlights the 5 longest running AJAX calls with the average call processing time, average call size, and average latency.  The call processing time is broken
down by network, server or client processing. This report also breaks down each of the calls by calling page, providing the average call processing time, average call size, and average latency on a per-page basis.
Client Latency Distribution
This report provides an analysis of client side performance in relation to network latency. Network Latency indicates the quality of a user connection by measuring the time for a packet of data to get from the server to the client browser. This
report correlates the number of performance violations experienced by users with network latency, highlighting network subnets where users experience most of the problems and providing network latency information for those subnets.
Load Time Analysis Based on Subnet
This report provides an analysis of client side performance based on client subnets. The report identifies client subnets where users experience most of the problems and shows a response time breakdown for those subnets. The report analyzes
the response time by breaking it down to Network, Server, DOM load, Peripheral Load and Java Script Processing times. The report provides further analysis by highlighting problematic pages and AJAX calls and shows a response time analysis for them.
Summary Performance Analysis
This report provides an analysis of performance violations by application. For each application it lists the top 5 problems for page requests, AJAX calls and Java Script actions and shows them as a percentage of total performance violations.
This report further breaks down the load time by network, server processing, DOM load, peripheral loading and Java script processing times.
Summary Size Analysis
This report provides an analysis of content size across multiple applications and shows the correlation between content size and load time. The content size is broken down by HTML size, HTC size, Image size, CSS size, Java Script size, and AJAX
size. The report provides further drilldown by showing information for the top 4 heaviest pages and the top 4 heaviest AJAX calls for each application.
Summary User Analysis
This report highlights the application users who experience most of the problems. For each user the report shows the exceptions and performance problems that were experienced by that user and how it compares to an average user experience. For
performance problems the reports shows the top 5 problematic pages for the selected user and how the user response time compares to the average response time for the system.
Problem Analysis Reports
Application Daily Activity
