PerformanceGuard® 8.0 Release Notes

Release date: 2020, April xxth

What's New in the Server?

GUI Makeover

The new version has a redesigned Screen Layout where the Classic top menu has been iconified and moved to the left side of the screen. 

A Home page button ()  with a list of Latest and Favorites  Dashboards-thumbnails has been introduced on the top of this menu. 

Also, a Dashboard page button () with a number of filers to search and select the desired dashboard, has been introduced. Select ( ) to get to a view similar to PG 7.6.

Dashboards thumbnails can be generated on-demand or whenever changes are saved.

Template Dashboards

The built-in dashboards that existed with PG 7.6 have been replaced with templates. Now when adding widgets to a dashboard the user is now presented with a "templates"-tab. This tab holds several widget-sets that could be added directly to a dashboard in one go.

Eg Setting up a  SQL Server - Windows Performance Counters can now be done just a few key presses. The set of templates are stored and maintained remotely and will be continuously improved and expanded. 

Split Application Traffic by Process

Besides splitting traffic data on the servers defined by the application its now also possible to split traffic by the process defined by the application.

When doing so the widget will show graphs for all versions seen for the defined process. To make this possible the application definition has been updated to include a process.

HighCharts Upgrade

The new version of PerformanceGuars has been upgraded to use Highcharts 8.0. which has improved the overall integration with this component and speeded up the application.

Moreover, a great number of improvements and bugfixes has been implemented (The most important ones mentioned below)

Improved Installation Wizard

To Simplify and reduce the upgrade challenges we decided to give the installer an overhaul. Now all connections and properties are maintained from the same file.
