At CloudZero, we’re confident that we can organize cloud spend better than anyone else out there. For years, we’ve helped companies to efficiently organize spend, while overcoming traditional hurdles to visibility, like shared cost, incomplete tagging, and Kubernetes. We’ve helped customers who have struggled to attribute spend to do so in a matter of days — without saddling engineering teams with new projects or embarking on a resource tagging expedition with no end in sight.

In this part 1 of a blog series on serverless monitoring, we will learn how to run the observIQ Distro For OpenTelemetry Collector, referred to as “oiq-otel-collector”, in Google Cloud Run. There are many reasons that someone may want to run monitoring in a serverless state. In our example, we will be monitoring MongoDB Atlas, a cloud hosted version of MongoDB.

AWS provides multiple ways to deploy containerized applications. From small, ready-made WordPress instances on Lightsail, to managed Kubernetes clusters running hundreds of instances across multiple availability zones. When deciding on the architecture of your application, you should consider building it serverless. Being free from (virtual) server management enables you to focus more on your unique business logic while reducing your operational costs and increasing your speed to market.

In the beginning, companies and cloud cost management vendors focused on reducing the absolute cost of the cloud. That would be the equivalent of solely focusing on the total cost of a sales organization versus considering how much new revenue they were booking, or the productivity of the sales team or the cost of customer acquisition. As cloud spend followed its rapid growth trajectory, curbing it most often relied on discounts.

There are a variety of different connectivity models available to enterprises as they embark further on their cloud journey. In this blog, we take a look at which model could suit your business best...
