    Application Insight, Infrastructure Monitoring & Performance Analytics

    GENIUS AI is a service platform for aggregating information from any application in your ecosystem. As an Application Intelligence Platform (“AIP”), GENIUS AI can pull data from any of your application data sources and provide modern, interactive dashboards and insights within its secure portal. Using machine learning and intelligent insights, GENIUS AI provides Augmented Intelligence to empower you with a deeper and broader view of your systems. You can see everything going on in your various software packages, and make informed, proactive decisions to improve performance and user experience. GENIUS AI is also a core component of our AppCare JD Edwards Managed Services offering.

    GENIUS AI is an extensible platform designed to quickly incorporate new application monitors to bring a full-spectrum view of your application footprint. The GSI product developers are continually adding new monitors based on the requests of our clients.

    Would you like to be able to focus on growing your business instead of babysitting your business system? Do you want to be able to identify a system anomaly before it becomes a major problem? Are you interested in running on a highly-optimized system all the time instead of some of the time?

    If you answered, “yes”, to any of these questions, consider what GENIUS AI can do for you! JDE Administrators face a series of common technical challenges affecting the performance and availability of JD Edwards, yet there are no simple solutions. If you’re involved in CNC, you already know that Server Manager can only take you so far, so what are your other options?

    GSI’s GENIUS AI toolset addresses the most challenging system performance issues for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and other enterprise applications, enabling users to realize optimal performance.

    Increasingly complex system and business needs mean that you need more than just great server management to remain competitive and efficient. Your team can achieve maximum production with a deeper and broader view of your system operations. Our Genius AI gives your company everything you need to focus on your business by helping your managers anticipate problems that can impact performance before they occur.

    NEW FEATURES

    DB BLOCKING

    DB-Blocking-1-768x322.png (1)

    The main dashboard for our GSI Network Operations Center shows a new alert type called DB Blocking has been detected.  We sample the database every 10 minutes, and each sample will detect if blocking is occurring for 10 minutes or more.  If so, the alert is generated.

    DB-Blocking-2-768x337.png (1)

    Selecting Blocking Details from the alert, we bring up collected information from Server Manager.  The top table identifies the Lead Blocker process, followed by the Victim Processes which are being blocked.  The SQL and PID’s are capture.

    Also, the Kernel information is grabbed  which provides further information.

    From the Kernel Information table, you can grab Thread Details

    Also from the Kernel Information table you can grab the connected user information

    Here’s the critical success factors for monitoring and performance provided by GENIUS AI as well as a comparison for how it stacks up against Server Manager:

    Being a 24/7/365 business and having 5 separate instances of JDE running, it’s important to know what’s happening before our end users do. GENIUS AI  allows IDEX to:

    • Understand if we are running at peak performance at all times
    • Do trend analysis of systems, locations, and users
    • Monitor several layers of our JDE system: JAS, Enterprise, Database
    • Advanced notification of potential issues eliminating risk of downtime
    • Engineers engaged fixing issues without the user community knowing
    • Comprehensive, straightforward reporting suitable for all levels of your organization

    APP GENIUS

    AddressBook_DOL-600x282.png

    Experience has clearly shown that even the most detailed infrastructure monitoring can show that all the services which make up an application can be functioning properly, but the application can still be down from the user’s perspective, which is what matters most. With this in mind, we’ve created APP GENIUS, to perform the most extensive test of the application possible.

    APPLICATION MONITORING

    We’ve created several application specific monitors including: RTE, AIS, OVR, Server Manager, and BSSV. Also, we’ve developed 3rd party  monitors for DSI and WebLogic.

    DB GENIUS

    GEN_4-600x404.jpg

    Behind every EnterpriseOne application server is a database on a database server or cluster. Database servers are often shared among multiple applications, so DB GENIUS monitors both the overall health of the database engine, as well as numerous JD Edwards specific metrics about users, jobs, and performance, taken directly from the JD Edwards tables.

    E1 GENIUS

    E1_GENIUS-600x285.png

    The EnterpriseOne application service is at the heart of JD Edwards, constantly moving data between the JAS and database servers. E1 GENIUS taps directly into the E1 application engine for all the key statistics surrounding processes, kernels, JAS connectivity, database connectivity, and more.

    JAS GENIUS

    JAS_GENIUS-600x280.png

    JAS Servers are the face of the JD Edwards application, providing its web-based user interface. JAS GENIUS looks under the hood of the JAS Servers, by monitoring all the critical components of the web services.

    UBE GENIUS

    UBE_SuccessfulJobs-600x201.png

    We’ve created UBE GENIUS specifically to provide in-depth insights into the operation of batch jobs. UBE GENIUS dynamically discovers and  monitors each queue and batch job, providing a historical view to the patterns of both, as well as notifying the AppCare team of any anomalies in the patterns via real-time alerts. Captured metrics includes but not limited to: Daily Job Totals, Scheduler Health, Next Job Number, Specific Job Detection, Longest Running Jobs.

    DB BLOCKING
