Testing the readiness of applications and networks before deployment is an absolute necessity. Poor performance from newly-deployed applications can have a profoundly negative effect on ERP, CRM, SCM, e-commerce or email/collaboration systems across the enterprise. Proactive application performance testing ensures a company's ability to deliver satisfactory service levels to all end users – customers, partners and employees.

Shunra's network virtualization for software testing solutions incorporate production network behavior into the test process, facilitating precise testing and analysis for internal applications and 3rd party enterprise applications like SAP or SharePoint.  This allows organizations to pinpoint performance issues prior to deployment, validate performance levels and SLO/SLA compliance, and quickly tune applications for optimal performance.

Using Shunra prior to application deployment enables the enterprise to:

• Know precisely how applications will perform at remote sites prior to deploying them;
• Conduct early testing with network virtualization to address problems such as chatty applications, latency sensitive transactions, caching inefficiencies and other network performance conditions;
• Cut costs and resolve network-related performance problems faster.

Clients engaging Shunra prior to rollout benefit from better-performing applications, a reduction in post-deployment performance problems and a better remote end-user experience.
