More and more businesses are moving towards cloud-based solutions. 


Cloud based providers help a business to operate at a lower cost. They reduce the capital expense since business does not have to invest in hardware. It also reduce operating and maintainence expense. 


Cloud solutions operates through virtual infrastructure. It imperative that business monitor the availability of service committed by cloud provider. Thus, monitoring play a very important role, to ensure efficiency and consistency. 


Troubleshooting may not work unless a standard process monitoring and log collection are not in place. The lack of monitoring lead to unforeseen problems. It can only occur if they are no longer able to contain or prevent problems from crashing and disrupting activities.


Why cloud monitoring systems?


All applications need to be monitored, whether they are in visible or not. Cloud-based applications, because of their visual field of operation, also require downtime monitoring. Dedicated cloud monitoring systems can help businesses ensure that their commitments and deliveries are met in a timely manner.


In addition, monitoring applications on the virtual network requires a different approach and therefore, the systems used may differ from conventional monitoring tools for applications and programs. Work cultures are based on relatively new clouds. As a result, the environment is constantly changing, and it may bring up unexpected issues at first or may be the solution to past experiences. This makes it even more important to have local monitoring programs directly linked to your Cloud-based applications.


Positioning cloud monitoring systems can help:


  • High performance
  • Detect an error before it has a chance to interrupt resources
  • Check Compliance with Service Level Agreements
  • Ensure consistent performance
  • Full time upgrade
  • Allow updates for all connected applications
  • Provide alerts and alerts before app crashes


Your cloud monitoring system

Ideally, the monitoring system for your Cloud-based operations should be:

  • Independent of any application; be able to check all applications within the Cloud
  •  Ability to measure real-time performance
  • Able to issue alerts on time
  • Allows you to view all your Cloud-based applications in real time

IT is not only IT that is affected by leisure time

Many business tools rely on IT, without a monitoring system there is no way to know why phones are not working or management reports cannot be generated because the website is not connected to the internet. Also, given your importance in managing and reducing business security and the risks of compliance, IT monitoring is an essential requirement to know who has access to that in any modern company.


Monitor your heart rate

IT monitoring serves as the sensor system for your IT infrastructure. It detects performance issues and gives your IT department the power to take not only repairs, but to take immediate action. IT monitoring is the organization's vision in all aspects of its operations.


Blending tools can disrupt business operations

Problems can arise when multiple monitoring systems are used to manage all IT infrastructure, including networks, servers and applications. The systematic complexity characterized by a combination of management tools related to IT processes can delay response times and compromise overall monitoring performance. Only one system capable of in-depth visibility of IT infrastructure can provide an effective solution that will improve business performance rather than disrupt it.

It’s not just about internal customers

In our ever-expanding, "ever-present" world, detailed IT performance monitoring can help reduce the cost of malicious user information by warning you if any part of your office behind or in front of a visible store slows down. Web users, for example, have very little patience with malicious websites. Every second the web store is down which customers may lose.


Prevention is better than cure

The concept of monitoring the IT environment states that “protection is better than cure”. Businesses will be more effective at identifying problems before they occur than by simply standing up. However, when the break time comes, you need a quicker way to deal with the problem as much as possible.



Monitoring tools should be integrated with your current plans

When considering monitoring tools it is important to ensure that the provider will be able to meet the levels of openness required to integrate with your IT systems, while allowing the flexibility required to increase the use of IT operational knowledge at all business levels. In corporate networks it is important that the monitoring system has as many structures as possible to cover all systems and areas.


IT infrastructure is no longer limited to 'premise'

Due to the proliferation of 'cloud-computing', having a clear view of IT operations is very important, whether it is a neighboring server room or IT services hosted thousands of miles away from a third-party data center or software provider. . Only a system that can monitor location, virtual servers and clouds can provide administrative power for the business to operate efficiently.


Freeware systems cannot be rated

Free software is usually designed as a test site for business applications or, in most cases, designed exclusively for use in a simple monitoring environment. For any growing organization, an application for escalable network monitoring is required to handle any IT asset growth over time.


Monitoring your 'Insurance Policy'

The amount of monitoring IT business plans are linked to their availability levels, which serve as a form of business-based insurance policy. As business grows through geographical distribution, so does the importance of strategic monitoring and operational strategy increase in terms of delivering daily value by supporting 'business as usual'.
