It\u2019s hard for consumers to understand or even care about the complexity involved in delivering a constant flow of app improvements &#8211; but more often than not, problems like these are caused by some sort of software update, as appears to have been the case this time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reality is that developing apps for the hundreds of variations in devices and operating systems is a continuous, never-ending cycle of release, monitor, fix, repeat and this process is becoming harder to manage. Today\u2019s applications live in complex enterprise cloud ecosystems where a tiny and seemingly insignificant change to a single line of code has limitless implications for user experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdding to the challenge, software releases that were previously measured in weeks, became days and have now been reduced to just seconds. These are very rapid release cycles to fix bugs, optimise the app and make sure security is up to standard; which is likely why we\u2019re seeing the issue with Facebook\u2019s Android app, following what could have been just a minor update.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe enormity of that challenge has simply become too great for human capabilities to overcome. That\u2019s why organisations are increasingly turning to monitoring and intelligence platforms that can provide real-time situational awareness. At the heart of these platforms is AI that can pinpoint and even predict problems before they hit. To take this even further, some organisations are already using that intelligence to enable application self-healing which removes the need for manual human intervention to prevent outages like this from occurring.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article by: Dave Anderson, Digital Performance Expert,\u00a0Dynatrace \u201cThe outage that Facebook users are experiencing is just another example of how difficult it\u2019s becoming to keep the world\u2019s software working perfectly.
