Proactive Alert Monitoring: Org Average Page Time (APT)

Average Page Time (APT) is an aggregate metric across multiple transactions that tracks the average length of time requests spend in the app tier of the infrastructure. It does not take into account database time, network time, etc. As a result, significant increases in APT may result in your organization experiencing performance issues and/or service disruptions.

The Signature Success plan’s Proactive Monitoring product will create a model of your orgs APT use in order to monitor for, and alert you to, significant anomalies in your normal usage. This article outlines some scenarios to help you investigate should you receive an alert. In addition, on the Salesforce Help site Designated contacts and above can see your realtime metrics, alerts & more.
