The following sections in this chapter describe the licensed features and links of Oracle Enterprise Manager User Experience Management.
Oracle Real User Experience Insight (RUEI) enables enterprises to maximize the value of their business-critical applications by delivering insight into real end-user experiences. It can help identify lost revenue from frustrated users, reduce support costs by lowering call center volumes, accelerate problem resolution of poorly performing applications, and help businesses adapt to changing needs by providing insight into business trends and user preferences. It integrates performance analysis and usage analysis into a single offering, enabling business and IT stakeholders to develop a shared understanding of their application users' insight experience.
Oracle Real User Experience uniquely captures a complete picture of the end-user experience and behavior, including:
Actual user-experience response time for key system transactions
Synthetic transaction-based monitoring
Complete quality of experience, including system and application errors and user-created errors
Comprehensive perspective of application utilization — which transactions are used by which end-users, which are the most problematic and why, and so forth
Oracle RUEI's passive monitoring capability is built using state-of-the-art Network Protocol Analysis technology, which does not require any modification, changes, or instrumentation of the application. Its passive monitoring approach allows enterprises to deploy in production, without requiring costly test/QA environment validations.
Oracle RUEI offers the following features:
Replay of poor performance
Executive dashboards
Extensive Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and SLA monitoring
Full alerting capabilities
Quick bottleneck analyses
Transaction performance analyses
Customized reporting
Trend analyses
Full data integration through XML
After licensing Real User Experience Insight, you can also license the following Accelerators to gain out-of-the-box monitoring support for specified Oracle applications and additional features as indicated below.
Note:
Any and all methods of accessing pack functionality — whether through the Enterprise Manager Console, Desktop Widgets, command-line APIs, or direct access to the underlying data — require the Pack license.All of the pages in Oracle Real User Experience Insight are licensed features of Real User Experience Insight and the accelerators. Additionally, RUEI includes the full capabilities of Enterprise Manager Grid Control Service Level Management.

Enterprise Manager Grid Control Service Level Management (SLM) offers a rich monitoring solution that helps IT organizations achieve high availability and performance, and optimized service levels for their business services. SLM actively monitors and reports on the availability and performance of services, including end-user business functions, Web applications, and infrastructure components. Using service tests or synthetic transactions executed from remote user locations (beacons), businesses can monitor services from the end-users' perspectives and the services' correlation to the underlying IT infrastructure. In addition, SLM assesses the business impact of any service problem or failure, and indicates whether service level goals have been met.
Enterprise Manager Grid Control Service Level Management was introduced as a standalone Service Level Management Pack with Enterprise Manager version 10g release 2. In Enterprise Manager 11g, Service Level Management is licensed as part of Oracle Real User Experience Insight. A subset of functionality in the Service Level Management Pack was previously included as part of the Diagnostics Pack for Application Server license. Customers who had licensed the Diagnostics Pack for Application Server 10g release 1 are entitled to use the following specific functionality without licensing the Service Level Management Pack 11g release 1:
Web Application service test monitoring with HTTP and HTTP(s) protocols
Host monitoring with ping protocol
Note:
Any and all methods of accessing pack functionality — whether through the Enterprise Manager Console, Desktop Widgets, command-line APIs, or direct access to the underlying data — require the Oracle Real User Experience Insight license.Customers who previously licensed the standalone Service Level Management Pack can continue to use Enterprise Manager Grid Control Service Level Management under their previously licensed terms. However, they are not entitled to use the capabilities contained in Oracle Real User Experience Insight.
Enterprise Manager Grid Control Service Level Management includes the features shown in Table 8–1.
