Improved ActiveMQ Monitoring & Administration with Infrared360®

For Artemis & Classic Editions

Get a faster, easier way to manage and gain visibility of your ActiveMQ environment. Infrared360® is a lightweight, cloud-ready interface with powerful testing, management, automation, and alerting capabilities.

Infrared360® Benefits Your Entire Organization

No matter how “active” your involvement is with ActiveMQ, Infrared360® helps the organization at every level.

For Developers

Improved Performance and Deployment Times: Easy-to-use synthetic messaging and stress testing lets you send out thousands of actual messages (as opposed to “Hello world”) in a specific interval to understand what’s happening on the receiving end for those messages
Improved MTTR: True Real-Time™ monitoring and role-specific access expedite the identification and resolution of issues, improving the Mean Time to Resolution.
Instant Problem Resolution and Identification. Dynamic flow charts and graphs let you see why a message wasn’t consumed, that a middle hop is broken or other issues that can be impacting your applications.
Solve issues before they’re an issue. Powerful alert features let you set up multi-stacked filters so you can be alerted on any type of condition you can imagine, any way that you want (email, text, automated tickets, etc.). You’ll solve issues before customers ever even know about them.

For ActiveMQ Administrators

Solve issues with less effort: Securely delegate visibility and responsibilities to specific permission-based teams or individuals, allowing SMEs to interact with queues and topics relevant to them.
Security: By segregating access, admins can maintain a higher level of security, ensuring only authorized personnel can make changes to the ActiveMQ environment.
Efficiency: Set up role-specific alerts, allowing focus on critical issues rather than wasting time on irrelevant notifications.
Automation: Identify objects automatically, import from LDAP, automate issue resolution, and much more.
Collaboration: Share visibility and responsibilities for specific queues or topics within teams, enhancing team productivity.

For IT Directors/Architects

Historic Data Utilization: Leverage historical data for targeted load testing and capacity planning, optimizing system performance for peak usage scenarios.
System Scalability: Evaluate and plan system scalability effectively with real-time and historical data, ensuring seamless growth.
Resource Optimization: Utilize in-depth analytics to allocate resources efficiently, minimizing costs without compromising on performance

For Other Stakeholders (CTOs, Business Analysts & More...)

Visibility: Custom Access means that even non-technical stakeholders can have permission controlled visibility into the aspects of ActiveMQ that are relevant to them, aiding in decision making:
Data-Driven: With role-specific views, these stakeholders can receive data that is directly relevant to their objectives, making their analysis more accurate.

Synthetic Transactions Suite: Confidently Test Real-World ActiveMQ Messaging Scenarios in Production and Non-Production Environments

Infrared360®‘s Testing Suite is a breeze to use and understand. With our system, you can generate and send test real-world messages to any number of queues at your desired intervals. This proactive monitoring approach allows you to emulate any number of transactions across your ActiveMQ (and other) environments and create monitored behavioral paths without needing actual traffic. Far superior to “hello world” type testing, this ensures the desired message behavior with applications based on real-world aspects like message header type, etc. Conduct 24/7 application testing in prod or non-prod environments or evaluate new architecture elements prior to a live launch, quickly and easily with Infrared360’s Testing Suite.

“Great MQ administration tool”

“Avada’s IR360 is a great tool because they’ve built their extensive knowledge of MQ into it. They understand what information and abilities are necessary to administer MQ and IR360 simply delivers. And the support of the product is excellent.

MQ Administrator, Government

“Great product for both MQ administration and MQ monitoring/alerting”

“As an MQ administrator, I estimate that IR360 provides an order of magnitude reduction in the time normally required to perform MQ administration tasks using competing products. I’ve used many monitoring/administration tools, and IR360 shines in comparison”

“Fast Implementation, Direct Support From The Company, Quick Updates.”

“Use case: Within a large environment of a distributed solution running in 4 operating centers for approx 20 tenants, we use approx. 200 queue managers (IBM MQ). The need was to monitor those queues and give access to select personal with different access rights (such as seeing everything is up and running, or reading contents, or even change them, always depending on their role). We evaluated and decided for Infrared360. Experiences: our various stakeholders use Infrared360 frequently. They have access to “their” queues as needed. Our operations department manages the whole with just one part time person.”

ICT Architect, Miscellaneous

“Avadasoftware IR360 Support Is A+”

“Support with Avada Software is incredible. They are responsive, personal and every part of the process is “white gloved.” I’ve even taken issues to their support not related directly to the their product that they’ve been able to help troubleshoot just because they care about their customer.”
