On today’s sponsored Day Two Cloud episode with Cisco ThousandEyes, we discuss how to monitor what’s broken in public cloud services. With the right information, you can offer a nuanced, knowledgeable answer when executives want to know when the company’s crucial customer-facing app hosted on a bunch of cloud services is coming back online.
There’s a big difference between saying, “We don’t know for sure what’s going on, but there’s a problem in AWS…hopefully they fix it soon…” and saying, “We know that for the last half an hour, the AWS API gateway in the US-EAST region is responding slowly to some requests. Some of our customers are working fine, but some aren’t. We will recommend a plan of action ASAP.”
To give an informed answer, you need data that clearly shows you what the problem is, and that’s where Cisco ThousandEyes comes in.
On this episode, we’re going to dissect a couple of recent public cloud outages the ThousandEyes global monitoring system tracked, and talk about the newest product added to the ThousandEyes Internet Insights product line, called App Outages.
Our guests are Barry Wayne Leader, Technical Marketing; and Chris Villemez, Leader, Engineering Technical, Technical Marketing, from the Cisco ThousandEyes team.
