BlueStripe Software

BlueStripe Software was an application performance management (APM) vendor headquartered in the Research Triangle Park area of North Carolina. Its flagship product, FactFinder, provided application-aware infrastructure performance monitoring and end-to-end transaction tracing across distributed servers, letting operations teams map and troubleshoot how applications behaved across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructure. The company was backed by Trinity Ventures and other venture investors before being acquired by Microsoft in April 2015, after which its technology was folded into Microsoft System Center and the Operations Management Suite (OMS) and the standalone BlueStripe product and developer surface were discontinued. This profile is retained in the API Evangelist network as a historical portfolio-lead record; the company no longer operates an independent website, developer portal, or API.

BlueStripe Software is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Developer Tools, Application Performance Management, APM, and Monitoring.
