Step Up Threat Detection with Security Observability

The adoption of containerization and orchestration platforms, such as Kubernetes, has grown quickly as DevOps teams look to build scalable and resilient applications. Container environments consist of many moving parts. For example, in a busy application environment, hundreds of pods, the smallest execution unit in Kubernetes, are continuously being launched and decommissioned. 

In this complex and dynamic environment, monitoring the health of your application infrastructure and troubleshooting issues can quickly become challenging. Between resource allocation issues that can cause pod eviction events, an unexpected termination scenario due to a spot instance availability, or CrashLoopBackOff errors arising from missing dependency that results in repeated failed launches; the sheer scale and complexity of a Kubernetes-back application requires more than standard monitoring and alerting to ensure optimal performance and health.

Join SolarWinds as we discuss how SolarWinds Observability provides single-pane of glass monitoring of your infrastructure and applications to provide you with visibility across complex Kubernetes workloads deployed across a multi-layered stack of AWS or Azure cloud services. We will demonstrate how SolarWinds Observability can:

• Detect a failing Kubernetes pod using pod health and performance metrics

Observability: Redéfinir le monitoring

To stand still is to fall behind when it comes to technology, and this pressure to deliver constant innovation can weigh heavily on IT Ops, DevOps, and AppDev teams. New ESG research shows 99% of these professionals have had to accelerate operations over the last three years, at an average speed increase of 57%. Yet as these application infrastructures grow and scale, it can be increasingly difficult to maintain visibility. 

This new degree of complexity can overwhelm your IT Ops, DevOps, and SecOps teams if they don’t have adequate support. A world-class observability solution can do more than just monitor your activity; it can provide end-to-end oversight of all critical business services in a single unified interface. This view helps reduce operational noise and allows teams to pivot from reactive to proactive when it comes to anomaly detection and problem resolution. 

In this webcast from SolarWinds and ESG, industry experts will peel back the curtain on the challenges plaguing IT Ops, DevOps, and SecOps and explain how the next generation of observability could be the answer.

Tune in to hear more about the following:
● Why today’s application environments require new observability strategies
● How the SolarWinds® Platform is designed to simplify complexity across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud-native software as a service (SaaS) solutions
● Why observability is a critical tool in advancing business agility

How Observability Platforms Increase Agility Across IT Ops, DevOps, and SecOps

During this webcast, we will discuss how IT organizations are justifying full-stack observability. Digital transformation is making IT operations more complex. To mitigate this, organizations are looking to provide end-to-end oversight and eliminate silos.

Use this webcast as a guide for calculating your Observability ROI and how to:

- Reduce costs by eliminating legacy tools and new point solutions
- Drive infrastructure efficiency by gaining better visibility
- Avoid punitive costs including SLA compliance violations
- Evaluate observability solutions and vendors (and the top 5 things to look for!)
- Leverage existing investment to enable the transition to observability

Observability ROI: Making the Case for Unified Visibility

Growing your business should be cause for celebration, but the accompanying technical complications can make it a headache. The greater the amount of activity on your platform, the more difficult it may become to maintain end-to-end visibility of your digital operations. Without sufficient visibility, frequent software issues can drain resources, erode application performance, and negatively impact user experience. Though it may be temporarily possible to manage performance with multiple point tools, there will eventually come a time when it’s identifying an end-to-end solution is the only viable way of achieving successful business outcomes.

It may seem counterintuitive to consider adding a new product when your digital systems are growing in size and complexity, but the right solution partner can help simplify your digital operations and improve flexibility. By outsourcing observability to tried-and-true expert platforms, companies can free up their teams’ time, away from manual tasks, and reduce the risk of human error. Leveraging artificial intelligence, machine learning and automation can help teams identify and resolve issues proactively, allowing your applications to function—and thrive—as promised.

Improving Network Tactics: Session 1 | Keeping Your ISP Honest and Troubleshooting SaaS Applications 

Watch this webcast and learn how to help troubleshoot network performance issues for on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments.

Keeping Your ISP Honest and Troubleshooting SaaS Applications

Most in Public Sector IT will have seen their budgets squeezed, with a major focus on containing capex. This naturally makes as-a-Service environments easier to justify, but can bring additional complexity. Hybrid IT and multi-cloud, containerization of apps, new DevOps ways of working, Edge infrastructure and low-latency networks all make for “interesting times”. 

For Infrastructure and Operations professionals responsible for managing and monitoring, the challenge is more acute –  because with increasing IT complexity, the numbers of point monitoring solutions have become an unwelcome overhead.

One issue is that different ops teams look at different tools and see different things – and the lack of correlation or consistency takes a toll on the level of service delivered. Tools also duplicate and overlap, resulting in unnecessary additional cost – not only directly (cost to buy and maintain) but also indirectly (costs of staffing and training for different tools). Ultimately this all leads to a worse customer experience – because issues get missed, and problems take longer to fix.

Many of these issues can be resolved through tool consolidation, which delivers a single source of truth for all operations teams, along with event correlation to speed root cause analysis. 

This Webinar is designed for IT Managers, Networks Managers, Systems Managers, Database Managers, IT leaders and those undertaking Digital Transformation projects.
