Prognosis Realtime Framework Manager

Prognosis Realtime Framework Manager is a software solution specifically designed to deliver comprehensive management of the S1 Postilion EFT switch environment.

Prognosis Realtime Framework Manager provides the foundation for additional Prognosis Positilion management products, giving you fast and detailed information relating to the acquirer, issuer, and internal and related components of the Postilion switch.

Prognosis gives you real-time insight into the state and performance of the Postilion internal and environmental dependencies - providing application and systems management teams with highly-scalable, low-overhead status monitoring and root-cause analysis of the Postilion Infrastructure.

Prognosis combines Postilion application and core infrastructure management into a single architecture. It integrates seamlessly across the entire Postilion and enterprise IT environment, while at the same time centralizing management and monitoring into a single operational view.

Integration with Postilion management data brings detailed information into view, giving you up-to-the-minute status on items such as transaction responses, request response times, Postilion system throughput, and store-and-forward queue sizes.

Staff are alerted in the event of poor service times or unusual application behavior when threshold and corresponding alert levels are reached or breached.
