UnitedHealth Group Inc., ahead of its investor day on Tuesday, projected revenue next year that falls just shy of analysts’ estimates, less than two weeks after it said weak performances on public health exchanges would cut into profit. UnitedHealth said it expects 2016 revenue of $180 billion to $181 billion, while analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast $182.36 billion on average. ...

With customers as varied as large banks, Tesla and the Container Store, AppDynamics helps corporations find anomalies in computer code before they cause major problems, a sub-industry called “application performance management.” ... Among AppDynamics’ customers is Xerox Government Healthcare, which creates applications for Medicaid in multiple states. Gorkey Vemulapalli oversees the unit, which is responsible for seven million lines of code, and he said that before using AppDynamics, five people would spend a 40-hour workweek trying to pinpoint any issues. Now it takes minutes, he said. This business is growing rapidly but is filled with many heavy-hitting and deep-pocketed rivals. (Picker, 11/30)
