360 Degree Cloud Visibility Using Cavisson

360 Degree Cloud Visibility Using Cavisson
In today’s hyper connected world every organization is using the cloud infra/ computing engine, cloud services in one or the other way for their mission critical application. As cloud infra is becoming an integral component of IT Operations, it is important to ensure its availability with continuous monitoring . Cavisson Cloud Monitoring includes monitoring of cloud based applications as well as the infrastructure ensuring everything is working seamlessly and helps in operational and performance optimization.
Cloud Monitoring accesses the elements of cloud-based services and applications to review the application infrastructure.

Why Cloud Monitoring is Crucial?

Cloud Monitoring is known for better support and control of cloud platforms. By opting Cloud Monitoring always keep an eye on cloud infrastructure, resources, and services to keep a track on the performance of the application and identify the anomalies.

Detect Application/infrastructure anomalies

Detect Application/ infrastructure anomalies

The detection of anomalous activities in the infrastructure or the components of the application stack is very critical. Through anomaly detection, we can focus on the identification of data points and situations that are not complementary to the desired pattern.

Automated anomaly detection is all about identifying unusual patterns in the series of data based on increasing scale and margin. Advances in Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Deep Learning offer powerful log analytic solutions that enable anomalies to auto-detect. The adoption of anomaly detection makes one’s way of life at work efficient, faster, and more productive.

Site Reliability Engineering

Site Reliability Engineering deals with the operational efficiencies around availability and resiliency of an application or it’s infra. In any enterprise, it is evolved by a team of software engineers responsible for maintaining large-scale application environments and unites development and operations.

SRE deals with best practices like real-time monitoring of applications/services/ Infra and alerting to enhance productivity and development practices to automate and improve the system’s health and availability.

How it differs from DevOps

DevOps is more about streamlining development operations for building a robust product. Whereas, SRE is a practice of creating and maintaining a highly resilient service.

DevOps primarily focuses more on the automation, SREs focus on stability and scalability of a production environment, as well as observability.

How Does Chaos Engineering Help with SLAs?

In today’s corporate environment, chaos engineering is the most incredible practice methodology that can change software engineering and qualitative delivery on a larger scale. It deals with the uncertainty of distributed systems in a comprehensive manner and provides a way to modulate them quickly.

Chaos Engineering defines a strategy to learn, how your systems behave with failures. The objective is to ensure applications/ infrastructure are resilient in production with the early investigation.

Identify the root cause of any unusual behavioral breakdown in the system by injecting the failures.

How (not) to harm your applications in production environment?

How (not) to harm your applications in production environment?

This question always stalks application owners as all applications break during production with some known or unknown issues. This directly impacts customer experience as well as revenue.

However, it doesn’t have to be like this. And, can be avoided with proper performance testing to ensure there aren’t any known issues left un-fixed, followed by production monitoring to ensure the developers and engineers stay alerted for any unknown issues and are able to fix them proactively

Is Your Code Production-ready?

Is Your Code Production-ready?

I was asked this question by a retail customer (having an e-com presence) during an executive briefing. Since holiday season is approaching fast, almost every retailer and even banks and other B2C businesses have the same dilemma – How to ensure smooth sailing through the peak season?

Our experience has it that in real world scenario no code is ready till the last minute. There are continuous changes and updates happening till the last moment – some technology driven and some business driven. So the onus is on the performance engineering side to ensure all stats are captured in an event of aberrations or hiccups.
