Hybrid cloud monitoring for IT Operations - Ennetix

Digital transformation is continuously increasing the dependence on cloud-based services and architectures for an enterprise’s business-critical application delivery. The underlying infrastructure is becoming increasingly virtualized, distributed, heterogeneous, and multi-domain (where traffic crosses domains with different ownerships). Data and resources required for applications and service delivery are distributed across multiple sites (e.g., clouds, data centers, etc.) managed by multiple entities. 

Users, applications, and data are widely dispersed, and most of the time, they are not in direct control of the enterprises. IT operations teams are juggling with multiple domains/layers from LAN, WAN, Peering Connects, Internet Exchange points (IXC), Public/Private Cloud, SaaS, On- and Off-prem, Third-Party Partners, etc. to every device – physical (laptop, server, router, switch) to virtual (VMs, containers, etc.). Hybrid networking and infrastructures are widely deployed and well understood, but are they being efficiently managed? 

Ensuring that the end-to-end hybrid infrastructure delivers the performance demanded by users and applications, at present and in the future, is an on-going challenge for IT operations teams. They are exploring and utilizing various monitoring solutions such as hybrid cloud monitoring, multi-cloud monitoring, etc., and emphasizing the need for using ML and  AI  infrastructure management.
