Everything to automate monitoring and alerting

The way that it can be used for all of your needs, from development through production environments! I love being able use this in my dev environment as well at work when using our AWS instances or other cloud services where we have access with VMs etc.. It's great because you're not limited by what they provide out there (like Nagios) but also don't need something like Zabbix if their service doesn't do everything needed/wanted either - so no extra cost / maintenance required then having 2…

Pros
  • Great software architecture allowing easy to read breakdowns
  • Easy setup & implementation across multiple nodes without too much hassle
  • Good documentation available online via official channels which cover almost every aspect.
  • Lots + variety options included within package wise eases adoption process while offering many choices per solution category :)Cons : No issues found yet although maybe more features would help make better usage experience even further?
Cons
  • I don't really have any dislikes about this, everything is just fine

Metrics visibility at scale within minutes

The ease of use. It's been easy for us so far to get data in real time with this tool, especially since it integrates well into our Jenkins environment. I would like more detailed information about how much CPU each instance was using (though that can be difficult to parse out from the dashboard). We have used other tools before but we couldn't pull up the same level of detail or integration as easily with those products. This has allowed me to identify areas where our applications are…

Pros
  • Easy way integrate monitoring across multiple environments including containers!Integrates seamlessly within an existing infrastructureJenkins plugin makes integrating very simpleEasy access/viewing dashboards via web interfaceGreat support team when issues ariseGood documentation available onlineHelpful community forums at StackoverflowVery helpful tutorial videos made by AWS themselvesExcellent product roadmapFuture plans include adding additional services suchas CloudWatchLogs
Cons
  • Empty

The best tool for application health monitoring

The best thing about vector was its ability to monitor our applications in real time without any additional effort from my end, it's so easy! It just works out of box with all major cloud providers (AWS/Google Cloud). There are some minor UI issues but nothing that would stop me using this product everyday at work or home for sure. I highly recommend you try this tool if your looking into application health management solutions like ours. We were able to identify some problems we didn't know…

Pros
  • Ease of use
  • Inbuilt monitoring capabilities across multiple clouds including AWS EC2 instances running Linux & Windows.
  • Ability perform custom searches within Elasticsearch index via REST API calls directly through browser console window no code required !!! :)
  • Easy integration between ELK stack components such as logstash , kibana
Cons
  • Will fit
