Tracking Azure Elastic Jobs using Redgate Monitor

Redgate Monitor has long helped data teams and DBAs keep track of SQL Agent Jobs. Now, with version 14.0.53, it extends that visibility to Azure Elastic Jobs, giving you a centralized view of all your scheduled tasks, whether they run on SQL Server, Azure SQL Managed Instances, or Azure SQL Databases.

Breaking Down Silos with Correlation and Context

In modern IT environments, data is abundant, but clarity is rare. Enterprises deploy dozens of monitoring tools to collect metrics, events, and logs from across the network, yet when something goes wrong, teams still scramble to connect the dots. Why? Because these data streams exist in siloes, isolated by format, source, or system.

Why you need Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM)

A few decades ago, monitoring your application was simple—everything ran on-premises, and performance issues were easier to pinpoint. But today, applications are built on globally distributed services, running across internal and external systems in the cloud, all connected through the Internet. In a world where the Internet is now your network, traditional APM (Application Performance Monitoring) isn’t enough. It only focuses on code and infrastructure, leaving critical blind spots that impact performance, availability, and user experience.

Pager fatigue: Making the invisible work visible

As much as you try to prevent it, your product will break sometimes. While you hope it would have the decency to do so while you are awake and already working, sometimes the product is inconsiderate and decides to break outside your office hours. Being woken up from a page at 3 am sucks, and being woken up again two hours later (when you get pinged for a follow-up issue you missed the first time) sucks even more.
