'''Application Response Measurement''' ('''ARM''') is an open standard published by the [[Open Group]] for monitoring and diagnosing performance bottlenecks within complex enterprise applications that use [[loose coupling|loosely-coupled]] designs or [[service-oriented architecture]]s.
It includes an API for C and Java that allows timing information associated with each step in processing a transaction to be logged to a remote server for later analysis.
==History==
Version 1 of ARM was developed jointly by [[Tivoli Software]] and [[Hewlett Packard]] in 1996. Version 2 was developed by an industry partnership (the ARM Working Group) and became available in December 1997 as an open standard approved by the [[Open Group]].
[[As of 2007]], ARM 4.0 version 2 is the latest version of the ARM standard.
