Progress’ LoadMaster 360 to troubleshoot applications
Fri, 13th Oct 2023

Progress, the provider of application development and infrastructure software, announced the launch of Progress LoadMaster 360. 

It is a cloud-based unified application delivery platform, providing organisations with a single-pane-of-glass experience to deploy, operate and troubleshoot applications and delivery infrastructure. 

With a consolidated view of all data in one place, Progress Kemp LoadMaster customers have a powerful new tool to decrease downtime and provide the seamless application experience their customers expect.

Organisations struggle to provide IT teams with the tools they need to ensure the resilience of their application delivery infrastructure. The various apps and clouds organisations run often come with tools such as load balancing, and this can create silos, resulting in missed alerts, ineffective cross-team communication and delays in addressing critical issues. 

According to recent research from Uptime Institute, over 60% of outages result in at least US$100,000 in total losses, increasing the importance of load balancing as an enabler of application performance and resilience. 

With the release of LoadMaster 360, Progress provides current and new LoadMaster customers with a single source of information, eliminating the risk of downtime caused by the complexity of application delivery and data disparity. 

The consolidated in-context insights, streamlined workflows and next-level issue management empower them to prevent outages, maximise their application experience and bring more value to the business while working in alignment. 

With LoadMaster 360, organisations receive an intuitive, modern experience. Clients can optimise workflows through modern UI, which offers visually compelling data modelling capabilities.

They can manage issues with context-rich critical alerts for a timely response. They can get notifications externally to ensure they know about critical issues when they occur. 

Clients can also gain insights into their certificate estate and prevent outages by receiving notifications on expiring certificates. And finally, the new platform helps clients access comprehensive dashboards and custom reports to monitor application performance, health and security. 

"In the world of application experience, uptime is the currency of success," says Sundar Subramanian, executive vice president and general manager for infrastructure management at Progress. 

The company helps businesses drive faster innovation cycles, fuel momentum, and accelerate their path to success. As the provider of products to develop, deploy and manage high-impact applications, Progress enables customers to build the applications and experiences they need, deploy where and how they want and manage it all safely and securely. 

“Simplifying LoadMaster application delivery, we are enabling organisations to fight the risk of downtime efficiently and stay ahead in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. LoadMaster 360 is an investment in the future,” adds Subramanian.

The LoadMaster 360 application delivery platform requires Progress Kemp LoadMaster, the industry's top-rated load balancer and application delivery controller (ADC) across all major third-party product review websites, including Gartner Peer Insights. 

The LoadMaster 360 application delivery platform is available now.
