Measuring Availability effectively in an Internet network involves providing the metrics needed to do differential diagnosis when there are service availability problems. This process involves measuring reachability, connectivity and service availability.

QoSient Availability Measurement Technology can provide each of these metrics, for every transaction on the network, not just test traffic. This means that QoSient can provide you the availability metrics that reflect your customers demands, allowing you to understand the availability that your customers actually experience.
