Proactive observability through Cisco Thousand Eyes.

• Iurie Costasco & Constantin Coada

For any delivered service, and especially for one that runs 24/7 and deals directly with the customers' assets, observability is a key part of ensuring the minimum possible downtime. Cisco Thousand Eyes is one of the solutions we use to monitor proactively issues which might happen with the solution we deliver. It helps us to identify immediate outages after we deliver new versions. It also gives us the visibility of performance our users might experience. Healthchecks during the deployment usually provide us the results we have between deployment system and the app, but what about our customer-app interaction status? Sometimes we are able to say that the issue customer reports was caused by an outage on the ISP side.

Self-hosted open source solution for application monitoring

• Andrei Nicu

At one point, developers requested the ability to monitor specific parts of applications with the following requirements: the interface should be very simple, alerts should be clear and pinpoint the exact issue, critical alerts should be receivable on phones 24/7, the solution should be self-hosted within the company, and it should allow for adding new monitoring points through a config integrated into CI/CD. Among several solutions, Gatus was selected and has since been used in multiple projects.
