Have you ever lost power to a server? Did it ever reboot on its own? Wouldn’t it be nice to prevent power outage to IT devices? If this is something you’ve experienced in the past, there are ways to simplify power monitoring and avoid some of the outages that can be caused by power issues. This article will focus on using power consumption data from a rack power distribution unit (rPDU) and how to simplify the process.
Amazon Web Services Elastic Load Balancer (AWS ELB) enables websites and web services to serve more requests from users by adding more servers based on need. Unhealthy ELB can cause your website to go offline or slow down dramatically. Elastic Load Balancing automatically distributes incoming application traffic across multiple Amazon EC2 instances.

The shift to cloud infrastructure does not remove the need for infrastructure management and administrators but rather necessitates a shift in their responsibilities. Cloud infrastructure has grown to be a ubiquitous part of the modern software industry. This is an amazing growth when you realize that Amazon did not announce Amazon Web Services, starting with Elastic Cloud Computing (EC2), until 2006.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) has a suite of tools that help application development teams enhance and streamline their work experience, from the backend to frontend services. LogicMonitor consolidates data from these services and empowers users to monitor them side by side with the rest of their infrastructure, whether it’s in the Cloud or on-premises. Keep reading for tips on monitoring some of these services to ensure business continuity.
Software as a Service (SaaS) based and cloud-based products and services may sound like they’re referring to the same thing. True, if the service exists “in the Cloud,” it may be both SaaS and cloud-based. While your SaaS-based application will almost certainly be cloud-based as well, your cloud-based services may not always be SaaS-based. SaaS is a component of cloud computing.
