App Acceleration addresses the causes of poor application performance and acts in real time to mitigate them, improving the user experience for Prisma Access GlobalProtect and Remote Network users.

When your users access applications, they might experience poor application performance caused by decreased throughput, which could be caused by degraded wireless connectivity, network congestion, and other factors. These networking issues can adversely affect the employee experience and reduce their productivity. App Acceleration securely builds an understanding of the device capability, network capability, and application context to maximize throughput and adjusts in real-time to account for changing network conditions.

In Strata Cloud Manager Command Center, go to InsightsApplications to view details about the applications that have been accelerated in your environment. The Prisma Access Applications table includes the Avg. (Average) Throughout column, which you see only if your user's traffic is accelerated, and the Accelerated column, which shows that some or all of your application traffic has been accelerated.

Go to InsightsUsers to view information about the App Acceleration users in your environment. Your users with App Acceleration enabled in their environments have the Users | Devices table, which shows the Traffic Accelerated column. This column indicates that some or all of users' application traffic has been accelerated.

AI-powered Autonomous DEM (ADEM) integrates with App Acceleration and provides you with metrics such as the number of applications that were accelerated and the performance boost gained overall. Go to SASE HealthExperience to view ADEM performance metrics in the Accelerated Applications and Monitored Applications tabs.
