Leverage Deep Cloud Monitoring with Enterprise Edition
GroundWork Monitor can monitor cloud infrastructure in addition to your traditional datacenter; delivering a single dashboard for the performance and availability of your key applications and services wherever they are deployed.
For customers without a traditional datacenter GroundWork Monitor is available packaged as a pre-configured Amazon EC2 image via our Quickstart program. Our Quickstart program provides software, training and technical support for monitoring up to 100 instances.
Customers who trade-up from Quickstart to our Flex subscription also gain privileges to use the GroundWork Monitor Enterprise Cloud Connector for Eucalyptus; at no additional cost.
Cloud Connector for Eucalyptus
The GroundWork Monitor Connector for Eucalyptus provides interoperability between GroundWork Monitor Enterprise and private clouds built using Eucalyptus and Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud.
By deploying GroundWork Monitor with the Cloud Connector to Eucalyptus customers can:
- Monitor their traditional infrastructure and private cloud installations using a single solution including unified dashboards and reports.
- Ensure consistent monitoring practices are maintained across environments.
- Monitor multiple, distinct clouds using a single installation.
- Automatic discovery of the deployed cloud topology - dependencies between instances and regions are mapped ensuring alarms are high quality, accurate and actionable.
- Automatic discovery of running instances and automatic assignment of monitoring profiles to those instances. This ensures all server instances are monitored consistently according to the same service thresholds.
- Graphing and reporting of available cloud capacity – enables administrators to proactively account for new demands on their cloud deployment. Alarms are generated when available capacity thresholds are crossed.
An addition connector to Amazon EC2 is being developed. If you have specific cloud monitoring requirements please contact us for more information.
