挑战
News publications are adopting mobile phones and tablets as their primary communication vehicle. Given the transient nature of mobile users and the plethora of news and television app substitutes, however, it is more important now than ever for companies to provide interactive content, improved graphics, and motion-optimized interfaces. With users consuming local news at an alarming rate and location-based services at an inflection point, the time was ripe for Hearst TV to focus on mobile apps to engage with more users and monetize through display ads. Hearst TV brought development in-house and built and deployed over 100 apps for iOS and Android on a variety of devices. Providing accurate, timely news during crisis situations has always been a strength of the company. During the week of the Boston Marathon bombing in April 2013, for example, app traffic for Hearst TV’s station in Boston, WCVB, spiked 247% and the company seamlessly delivered full coverage of the event.
解决方案
Hearst TV researched several mobile app performance management solutions, but was wary of spending large sums on solutions that might be obsolete in a few years. The company was ultimately looking for an all-encompassing platform that would not only help pinpoint performance issues, but also offer insight into the sources of the problem, thereby preventing issues from occurring again. During the evaluation phase, Hearst TV researched iTunes Connect and Google Play. The debugging information from those solutions, however, left much to be desired. In addition, the stock iTunes and Google Play approach was reactive as reviews and issues were flagged after apps went live. Hearst TV needed a solution that took a much more proactive approach, and turned to Apteligent. Upon implementation of the Apteligent solution, Hearst TV has been able to do daily builds with fixes on Android. In addition, the company is now able to test an app in a given market, gather reports, fix all errors, then push an update with Apple before continuing to build a new version.

Case Study
Vodafone Hosted On AWS
Vodafone found that traffic for the applications peak during the four-month period when the international cricket season is at its height in Australia. During the 2011/2012 cricket season, 700,000 consumers downloaded the Cricket Live Australia application. Vodafone needed to be able to meet customer demand, but didn’t want to invest in additional resources that would be underutilized during cricket’s off-season.
