Application solutions provider AppDynamics has announced that its application intelligence platform will support apps designed for Apple's smartwatch.
AppDynamics support is based on Apple's publicly available WatchKit extension, it said in a statement adding that the firm has not entered into any deal with Apple to support this capability.
The company will provide mobile application performance monitoring and user analytics solutions for US-based firm's recently unveiled smart watch -- Apple Watch.
Founded in 2008, California-based AppDynamics has around 600 employees and 1,600 enterprise customers.
The solutions it would provide for Apple Watch would include real-time monitoring and analytics support for WatchKit, an extension that controls the smart wearable device's user interface and responses to user interactions, the firm said.
The wearables market is projected to grow quickly and the need to monitor and manage the apps and huge variety of data on these devices has reached a critical point.
Research firm Statista projects the wearables sales to grow to more than USD 7 billion this year, with an annual growth of about USD 1.5 billion through 2018.
Strategy Analytics has projected Apple Watch sales of 15 million units in 2015, while IDC expects compound annual growth of nearly 80 per cent for wearables from 2014 through 2018.
