Health checks for cloud infrastructure refer to the mechanisms and processes used to monitor the health and availability of the components within a cloud-based system. These checks are essential for ensuring that the infrastructure is functioning correctly and that any issues or failures are detected and addressed promptly. Health checks typically involve monitoring various parameters such as system resources, network connectivity, and application-specific metrics.

Deciding what to migrate, what to modernize, and what to retain on-premises is part of enterprise IT infrastructure management. When a refresh cycle is up in your data center, there are two very different types of competing motions you need to evaluate. While they may appear to be independent, they’re also kind of not, so it can be tricky to decide which one to execute—or even to execute both—and to do so smoothly.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is an extremely scalable and high-performing container orchestration solution that allows for the effortless execution, termination, and administration of Docker containers within a cluster. As more organizations embrace containerization, optimizing the costs of running containerized applications is essential, especially when using managed services like Amazon ECS.

With the surge in digitization, the concept of cloud migration has become a fundamental reality for many organizations. VMware, a widely accepted leader in server virtualization, has enabled many businesses to take advantage of virtual machines’ benefits. However, as businesses evolve, so do their requirements. This often leads to the need for moving these VMware-based virtual machines to more flexible and scalable platforms like Microsoft Azure.

The old saying goes, “practice what you preach.” When Ivanti started its "Customer Zero" initiative, Bob Grazioli, Chief Information Officer, saw it as a perfect opportunity to test the products and services consumed by customers. For example, during Ivanti’s move to the cloud, Grazioli and the team experienced the same issues that customers would’ve experienced in their migration process. This first-hand experience allowed them to make improvements along the way.

You may be thinking of investing in multiple cloud vendors to increase redundancy and deal with the complexity of your enterprise requirements. You are not alone. Many enterprises are moving in this direction to take advantage of the options offered by competing cloud vendors. Adopting one major cloud vendor is a complex project that can consume a company for months if not years.
