Infrastructure monitoring
Infrastructure monitoring involves the process of continuously monitoring and evaluating the performance, condition and availability of vital components of the IT infrastructure, which includes servers, networks, applications, databases and other components. The primary goal of infrastructure monitoring is to ensure that the entire IT ecosystem functions smoothly, that is, to detect and solve potential problems in a proactive manner, practically before they happen.
Key aspects of infrastructure monitoring include:
Real-time monitoring: Infrastructure monitoring systems constantly collect data and provide real-time insight into the status of servers, network devices and applications.
Alerting: when problems or anomalies are detected, the monitoring system can generate alerts to either engineers or administrators, enabling a quick response.
Performance analysis: Infrastructure monitoring tools typically provide data on the performance of servers, applications, and network resources. This data can help organizations optimize their infrastructure and make informed decisions to scale or improve performance.
Capacity planning: monitoring data can be used for capacity planning, i.e. predicting when additional resources (eg server capacity, bandwidth) will be needed.
Monitoring tools can be integrated with other IT management systems to streamline workflow and automate responses to detected issues.
Supervision as a guarantor of good performance
Coming implements infrastructure monitoring through two operational monitoring locations, in Belgrade and Niš, which simultaneously function as cross backup solutions. Monitoring from both locations is done via a video wall that provides a dynamic view of the monitoring consoles. Continuous monitoring provides a reliable and secure system that enables uninterrupted business operations and availability of information.
A variety of commercial and open-source monitoring tools are available that can be customized to meet the specific needs and complexity of the infrastructure. Coming provides its clients with top tools for network monitoring and management, such as PRTG (Paessler Router Traffic Grapher), Cisco AppDynamics, Uptime Robot, as well as open-source tools for more efficient graphical display of information obtained from monitoring tools (Grafana, a platform for visualization and data analysis that facilitates problem detection and resolution, performance monitoring over time and a deeper understanding of system behavior).
