Multi-cloud environments have become the go-to solution for organizations seeking agility, scalability, cost containment, and best-of-breed capabilities.
However, trying to manage applications spread across multiple cloud platforms can introduce significant complexity and costs as well as security risks. Traditional monitoring tools are rarely designed with your application owners in mind and too often fail to meet their needs of monitoring applications in multi-clouds.
In addition, SaaS applications spread across multiple clouds can have multiple owners responsible for only a portion of the application yet they lack an isolated view of their area of responsibility. This lack of insight hinders informed decision-making, delays response time, and ultimately compromises the overall security and performance of your multi-cloud environment.
Traditional Monitoring Tools Put Your Multi-Cloud Environments at Risk
The fragmented nature of multi-cloud environments creates fundamental challenges in monitoring applications. Frequently, SaaS applications distributed across clouds often have multiple application owners responsible for different aspects of a single application.
Unfortunately, traditional monitoring tools were not designed to provide multiple application owners insights into their discrete area of responsibility. These tools are often designed for security specialists and compliance audits rather than for multiple owners trying to focus on their area of responsibility, leaving the latter with an insufficient view of the services they manage.
Reliance on outdated tools has created several challenges:
- Limited Visibility into Application Traffic: Lacking the clear insights they need to make informed decisions about application activity, changes, updates, and resource allocation, your application owners are left guessing.
- Reliance on Outdated Information: Traditional methods rely on information from other teams or stored data sets that may not be up-to-date. This outdated information hinders real-time decision-making and troubleshooting efforts by those responsible for the applications.
