Introduction to Application Performance Monitoring (APM) on BTP

Congratulations! You've successfully built and deployed your application on SAP Business Technology Platform. While getting your application live is a significant milestone, the journey doesn't end there. Once your application is running in a production or test environment, its performance, availability, and resource consumption become critical concerns. This is where Application Performance Monitoring, or APM, comes into play.

APM is the practice of monitoring and managing the performance and availability of software applications. It involves tracking key metrics, analyzing logs, understanding user behavior, and quickly identifying and resolving issues. For applications running on a dynamic cloud platform like SAP BTP, effective APM is not just beneficial; it's essential for ensuring operational stability and delivering a reliable user experience.
