Abstract: Provided are methods and computer program products for monitoring the contents of network traffic in a network device and performing correlation analysis of collected performance metrics to help identify reasons for network performance issues. Methods for correlation analysis include selecting scope and network metric types to include in the correlation analysis to generate an educated candidate set for correlation analysis. The correlation analysis methods result in a hypothesis set that assist the operator in identifying transactions and infrastructure problems resulting in network performance degradation.

Abstract: Provided are methods and computer program products for analyzing and tracing the contents of network traffic in a network device and to help identify network performance issues. Methods for analyzing traffic include identifying thread identifiers associated with transactions, determining related events, and associating similar transactions and events into an aggregated list of transactions. Methods of tracing transactions include identifying thread identifiers associated with transactions and related events and serializing events into a serialized list of events to facilitate tracing single transactions.

Abstract: Provided are methods and computer program products for analyzing transactions across a network and to help identify network performance issues. Methods for analyzing traffic include identifying an outbound transaction and a related transaction type, and identifying candidate inbound transactions that have the same transaction type as the transaction type of the outbound transaction. One or more transaction data parameters may be selected that correspond to the outbound or inbound transactions. Candidate transactions may be determined to be related to the outbound transaction based on one or more transaction data parameters.

Abstract: Provided are methods and computer program products for aggregating and reporting network application performance metrics by process pool. Methods may include mapping ones of a plurality of processes into one of at least one process pool; and aggregating, for each of the process pools, performance metrics generated for each of the plurality of processes mapped into that process pool.
