Compuware has set up a dedicated Auckland backbone node for its Gomez global performance testing network.

The new backbone node will allow companies to test and monitor their web and mobile applications more accurately, to identify performance issues in areas such as data centres, the internet or third party providers.

“The expansion of the Gomez network in Auckland is an indicator of our ongoing commitment in the ANZ market to address the regional and vertical market demand we’re experiencing from the media, telecommunications, financial services and government sectors, which are increasingly trying to drive compelling consumer web and mobile experiences,” says Rafi Katanasho, Application Performance Management director for Australia and New Zealand, Compuware.

The Gomez global performance testing network includes more than 150,000 Last Mile desktop computers, more than 150 commercial-grade Internet backbone nodes, a virtual test bed of over 500 browsers and operating systems combinations, and support for more than 5,000 mobile devices.
