Abstract
A first unique identifier is received from a first monitoring agent. The first unique identifier may be based on first natural data associated with a transaction. A second unique identifier is received from a second monitoring agent. The second unique identifier may be based on second natural data associated with the transaction. The first unique identifier may be correlated with the second unique identifier to monitor the transaction through a plurality of application environments.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving a first unique identifier from a first monitoring agent, wherein first natural data is associated with a transaction, and wherein the first unique identifier is based on the first natural data;
- receiving a second unique identifier from a second monitoring agent, wherein second natural data is associated with the transaction, and wherein the second unique identifier is based on the second natural data;
- and
- dynamically correlating the first unique identifier with the second unique identifier to monitor the transaction through a plurality of application environments.
A computer program product stored in a computer readable medium, comprising functional descriptive material that, when executed by an information handling system, causes the information handling system to perform actions comprising:
- receiving a first unique identifier from a first monitoring agent, wherein first natural data is associated with a transaction, and wherein the first unique identifier is based on the first natural data;
- receiving a second unique identifier from a second monitoring agent, wherein second natural data is associated with the transaction, and wherein the second unique identifier is based on the second natural data;
- and
- dynamically correlating the first unique identifier with the second unique identifier to monitor the transaction through a plurality of application environments.
An information handling system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- a memory accessible by at least one of the processors;
- a nonvolatile storage medium accessible by at least one of the processors;
- a set of instructions stored in the memory and executed by at least one of the processors in order to perform actions of:
- receiving a first unique identifier from a first monitoring agent, wherein first natural data is associated with a transaction, and wherein the first unique identifier is based on the first natural data;
- receiving a second unique identifier from a second monitoring agent, wherein second natural data is associated with the transaction, and wherein the second unique identifier is based on the second natural data;
- and
- dynamically correlating the first unique identifier with the second unique identifier to monitor the transaction through a plurality of application environments.
