System and method for application performance management
First Claim
1. A method, based on a Web enabled graphical wizard, of tracking end-to-end resource usage information of a first business application workflow in an enterprise system, wherein the first business application workflow includes a plurality of components, the method comprising:
- examining resource usage information of the plurality of components;
correlating the resource usage information of the plurality of components to determine cumulative resource usage information for the first business application workflow; and
storing the resource usage information of the plurality of components and the cumulative resource usage information for the first business application workflow in a memory in response to said correlating, wherein the cumulative resource usage information for the first business application workflow comprises information regarding the resource usage information of the plurality of components.

Abstract
An improved method and system for complex and integrated application performance management which tracks end-to-end computer resource consumption of a first business application workflow in an enterprise system. The first business application workflow may include a plurality of components. The plurality of components may further include one or more component types. A second or subsequent business application workflow may be embedded or linked as a component of the first business application workflow. Resource usage information of the plurality of components (including resource usage information of underlying units of work of the plurality of components) may be correlated to determine cumulative resource usage information for the first business application workflow. The resource usage information may be displayed in a graphical user interface. User input may be received indicating one or more of the following for the first business application workflow: an application name, a natural business unit, and a mission-critical ranking.
