OPNET Introduces OPNET Panorama 3.0

Latest release provides real-time analysis of business applications for maximizing performance

BETHESDA, MD–June 28, 2005 – OPNET Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OPNT), a leading provider of management software for networks and applications, today announced the general availability of Version 3.0 of OPNET Panorama. Panorama provides real-time visibility and performance analysis of complex applications (J2EE/.NET).

OPNET President & CTO, Alain Cohen, stated, "This is the first major release of Panorama since our acquisition of Altaworks last year. With this new release, we have introduced powerful new dashboard views of application performance for IT managers who focus on production troubleshooting and pre-deployment testing. Panorama’s advanced analytics automatically sift through thousands of system and application metrics to identify the root-causes of problems. We have also tied together Panorama’s server perspective and OPNET ACE’s network perspective to create an industry first: integrated application troubleshooting capabilities across network and system layers.”

Peco Karayanev, Web Systems Engineer, National Instruments stated, "We use Panorama in a pre-production QA environment where it has been instrumental in troubleshooting Web application issues and determining their root causes. It has proven successful where traditional tools and approaches have fallen short. With Panorama's light and extensible architecture, we could quickly and easily deploy and prepare for in-depth performance analysis."

New in Panorama 3.0:

Panorama Dashboards: Valuable to visualize key aspects of application performance in live or historical mode. Dashboard instruments show current metric values vs. expected range; trends; activity levels and variability; and system or component “health”. Multiple Dashboard views can be easily configured to analyze performance by application, business unit, or infrastructure element.

Web Services Support: Expanded instrumentation coverage of application environments for Web Services, including support for Apache Axis, Java APIs for XML, and next-generation SOAP.

Availability
The OPNET Panorama 3.0 release is available immediately from OPNET.
