Proactive Intelligent Monitoring - Overview
With all the disruption and fears during this period of economic instability, the last thing any business of any size or type can tolerate is the loss of any critical business service. However, now is not the time to drastically change any of the system architectures you already have in place. Instead, you should be looking to ensure that the systems you have in place are operating as reliably and efficiently as possible.
A company without any monitoring solutions only learns about server problems when its employees or customers start to complain. For most companies, the systems that support the business are absolutely vital, and any disruption in the delivery of those services can be a huge financial liability, as experienced by one county council recently.
Some of the impacts are obvious, including expensive and unbudgeted IT man-hours spent fixing the problem as well as lost efficiency from employees who don't have the tools necessary to do their jobs. Others are less tangible, but no less real, including loss of morale, distrust in the organisation's IT department, and damage to the company's reputation with customers. Ask yourself how many times you have stopped using a company because they’ve let you down.
Everyone knows the horror stories of how something simple when applied in the wrong way can have a major impact on a critical business application or where a failure stops the business being able to function correctly.
Effective prevention, monitoring, and education are essential to ensure it doesn’t happen to you. This document will help show how proactive intelligent monitoring can save you money, and how passive monitoring can negatively affect your bottom line.
