Course Overview
If your application isn't available or running properly, then it isn't going to generate all that much revenue for your company, and if you're not constantly monitoring its performance, there's really no way to know what it's doing, at least before the customer complaints start pouring in. Adding industry-standard monitoring protocols to your team's workflow can bring you into regulatory compliance, make your product more reliable, and perhaps most exciting, compliment all those efficiency gains you hope to realize through adopting DevOps systems. Customer feedback for your company's web-based application has been just great, whenever the thing is actually running, and you've just discovered that there's a whole world of regulatory compliance out there that has yet to touch your infrastructure. You've got some serious research and work ahead of you to improve your DevOps and company protocols, but you don't know where to begin. In Continuous Monitoring: The Big Picture, I'll introduce you to the principles and benefits of continuous monitoring and application performance management. I won't go into specific technologies, but I will talk about the various classes of software tools that exist so you'll be ready to make the smart decisions it'll take to keep your application functioning at the top of its game.
