Three seconds. That’s how long it takes for over half of your users to abandon your site if it doesn’t load. One extra second of lag? Say goodbye to 20% of your conversions. Your customers are one bad experience away from leaving – and they won’t hesitate to switch to your competitors. Whether it’s a sluggish app, a confusing interface, or a glitch in the checkout process, digital frustration comes at a steep cost.

Real user monitoring (RUM) is a type of application performance monitoring that provides insights on how people interact with your app. With RUM, you can see what your users see by monitoring key elements of their experience within your application. There’s lots of industry buzz about observability, but for good reason. RUM is a critical part of digital experience monitoring because it’s incredibly valuable to understand user behavior and preferences.

We've all heard the stories about the overnight sensation that took decades to achieve. The "API Revolution" has that same feel to me. Some version of APIs has been at the heart of application development for many years, but as the web application world grew more and more connected and developers learned to leverage code built outside their own application, the API industry began to boom and flourish.

While APM solutions have been mitigating poor user experiences since the early 90s, only recently have these tools begun to deliver on the promise of proactively identifying and diagnosing performance issues before users are impacted-but they are still far from perfect. For starters, why the lack of unified functionality? Why do we still need multiple tools in order to deliver a single APM solution? Or do we?
