Application Management Challenges
For the Support OrganizationApplication faults or issues often detected first by users
Support staff need structured application informationOften must parse error strings written to event log
Most tracing solutions are not intended for production apps
Distributed applications magnify these challengesEvents fired from an application across multiple servers are hard to correlate

Application Management Challenges
For the Development OrganizationNo unified instrumentation API
Developers are forced to use different eventing, tracing or logging solutions at various points in the application
Or more often, avoid instrumentation entirely
Firing an event must be as simple and low-profile as possible
Developers often forced to determine event routing within code

Enterprise InstrumentationGoals and Scenarios
Significantly improve enterprise customers’ ability to monitor and troubleshoot applications built on the .NET Framework
Integrate and unify disparate tracing, eventing and logging technologies
Integrate with existing management tools and products
Key ScenariosApplication Monitoring and Error Management
Local Diagnostic Tracing
Distributed Request Tracing

EIF Core Features
Unified Instrumentation APIUnified model for tracing, eventing and logging
Leverages WMI Infrastructure (System.Management.Instrumentation)
Structured WMI Event SchemaManageability-contract between dev, QA and support staff
Configurable At-Source Event FilteringFire via WMI, Event Log, Windows Event Trace
Minimal cost for leaving instrumentation in production build
High-speed Diagnostic TracingEnables problem-management for production applications
Enables tracing user “requests” along application business-processes or services

What Questions can EIF Answer?
What is the general health of the application? Are there unexpected errors or warnings being reported?What is happening inside specific business processes or application transactions?Given a specific error being logged, what happened before and after that event within the application?Is a particular application service taking too long to execute on average?

Distributed Request Tracing
Enables tracing user requests through a distributed application
Trace business services of the application
Can flow across a distributed .NET application
Tracing is only activated only specific execution path
Events get tagged with request contextEven if no tracing session is enabled
Example: Errors subscribed to via WMI will have request-context
Trace-log Aggregation and AnalysisTrace-log aggregation not included with EIF
Trace Log Reader API provides a starting point for aggregation and analysis
