The current application Monitoring Center only supports performance monitoring of web apps, and Native app's monitoring will be open in the fourth quarter.
Because the network performance of different operators and different cities in China varies greatly, app developers need to understand the response speed of app in different cities and carriers, and avoid the user's activity and retention rate decreasing because of the slow speed of app opening and slow response.
Now in the Baidu Application Monitoring Center to enter mobile app URL, developers can see the app's "page Opening time" performance (one load and two load), as well as in the open time of the various metrics (such as the first byte time, image compression, reduce the amount of request data, etc.) on how the app performance, There are also reference optimization recommendations. In addition to real-time monitoring, developers can also use "continuous monitoring" to observe the app for a period of time performance changes.
At present, the Applied Energy Monitoring Center (APM) and Baidu Siteapp, Appbuilder, Clouda and mobile testing (MTC) services in parallel with Baidu Open cloud of other services list, and application development services Siteapp, Appbuilder, Clouda was released in January before the World Congress of Baidu.
