Monitor & Manage the Cloud
-
The Cloud Engineer has the responsibility to support ongoing development and maintenance of the organization's continuous integration, delivery, deployment systems and pipelines across multiple clouds.
Typically the initial initiatives of cloud engineers, include working with the Data Center IT Operations teams (unless both the cloud engineer and IT Ops engineer are the same person) to support migration of application workloads to the Public Cloud.
Once the workload is migrated, they need to provide and coordinate support for the cloud infrastructure and cloud services for the various mission critical business services or applications. They also neeed to keep a close eye on systems that may be experiencing resource constraints and/or systems that are no longer being utilized.
Also the expectations that users have from Cloud Engineering teams is very high. For example developers expect higher availability, reliability, scalability and performance from their cloud provider and the internal cloud team supporting them. They are not afraid to circumvent the process if it slows them down. This directly impacts the business risks for the organization, but more importantly the value of the cloud engineering team. Being able to have that complete visibility across multi-cloud and solve problems quickly is a must for the cloud engineer.
Troubleshoot at High Velocity with Root-Cause Analysis
- Monitor application performance and perform rapid root-cause analysis and reduce MTTR from days to minutes.
- Utilize continuous Machine Learning (ML) & Behavior Learning algorithms to identify anomalies from performance baselines instead of manual guesstimates, to provide unprecedented level of accuracy.
- Prevent alert storms and false positives with getting alerts only on issues that matter.
- No need to manually interpret issues from multiple sources. Let Uila do that for you.
- Real-time or time travel in the past to detect and solve intermittent issues.
Support your Organization's Migration Strategies
- Support the Workload migration strategy from Private to Hybrid Cloud or between multiple Cloud Providers with deep insights into current application usage and their dependencies.
- Intuitive Application services inventory map and current performance baseline to ensure successful migrations for multi-tier applications.
- Visualize Application, Services, Interdependencies and Topology map to understand all dependencies & Identify your Technical Debt before migration.
