There are many business and technical considerations for migrating to today's cloud computing options. If you are currently managing your online assets "in the cloud", you already understand how crucial user experience is - it can make or break you.

Understanding how your PaaS, IaaS and SaaS suppliers are impacting availability and performance is key to your success with cloud computing. But for cloud vendors, especially those in industries such as retail that experience seasonal surges, traditional load testing may not uncover key scalability issues.

AlertSite's Cloud Monitoring

Success "in the cloud" goes beyond simple availability. User experience is the deciding factor, and most testing today doesn't evaluate performance. AlertSite Cloud Monitoring ensures the best possible user experience for your applications and helps you avoid the slowdowns and other usability issues that have a real impact on your business results. AlertSite Cloud Monitoring measures the performance of every part of your website including the areas delivered by third-party vendors in the cloud. With AlertSite Cloud Monitoring you can:

  • Identify from the end-user perspective how well cloud service providers deliver performance across different geographies
  • Troubleshoot performance and availability bottlenecks in the service delivery chain
  • Independently validate vendors SLA claims with real data
  • Determine how well and quickly vendors scale during peak traffic periods

If you are a cloud provider you should be monitoring performance to:

  • Carefully manage your shared resources to maintain cost efficiency.
  • Find bottlenecks when a customer, or set of customers, demands more resources.
  • Differentiate yourself by providing SLAs based on availability and performance.
