Meanwhile, enterprises with thousands of servers are more likely to maximize savings by building a private cloud or a hybrid public/private cloud. For example, cloud services offer such advantages as:

- a variable cost structure that eliminates the need for up-front capital expenses

- the ability to scale up or down the amount of servers required for an application.

Despite these general bits of wisdom, each company must decide which applications and workloads can be outsourced and which ones need to be kept in-house. It’s a highly personal decision, and firms need to take into account not only cost savings, but also risk factors and compliance requirements.

Overall, the most suitable outsourcing workloads for an external cloud are infrastructure workloads, including desktop and communications tools, said Ganek in the article. Meanwhile, database and application-oriented workloads are best suited for private clouds.

Ganek gave an example of how a company can break down what belongs where. He cited the example of IBM client Panasonic, which uses LotusLive, IBM’s hosted e-mail and collaboration service, rather than an in-house system.

“I’m sure that Panasonic has the scale to deploy private clouds, and I have every expectation that they will deploy private clouds for certain aspects of their business, but then you look at the specific challenge they faced with their collaboration tools — the fact that their 300,000 employees are scattered all over the world and the fact their starting place had many different regional implementations — using the IBM LotusLive cloud was very natural for them,” Ganek said.

I found this very revealing – especially taking a look at how one company decided what to keep inside and what to farm out. No matter what type of cloud your company builds or whether you opt to do your computing via internal servers that house apps, it’s essential that you set up some type of system of automated monitoring so that you keep computing running smoothly and be kept in the loop regarding potential problems.

With Monitis Mobile IT managers and system administrators can access their Monitis data, take a snapshot of all recent checks, and see the details of each of the various monitoring tools within the Monitis suite. Most importantly, Monitis Mobile includes access to both internal and external monitoring tools, giving IT managers visibility over their page-load times from multiple geographically disperse locations, as well as over their internal server metrics such as CPU, memory, and more.

Said Founder and CEO, Hovhannes Avoyan, “Monitis has always been about and will always only ever be about saving the world’s IT managers massive amounts of time. With the launch of Monitis Mobile, which provides mobile access to both internal and external data, we are taking our game to a whole new level.”

Monitis Mobile is available as a free service within the Monitis suite of tools.

San Jose, CA – April 22, 2010 – Monitis, the leading provider of all-in-one Cloud-based network and application monitoring suite, today announced a major new product launch: Java Application Monitoring.

Using their leading-edge hosted software as a service (SaaS) approach, Monitis’ Cloud-based Java Application Monitoring Tool enables IT managers to monitor any Java-based service with JMX hooks, but to do so from the Cloud. This means that in addition to enabling users to see inside a production Java (also JRuby) application deployed in a cloud or in a datacenter, users are free to monitor these processes from anywhere at any time.

Said Monitis Founder and CEO, Hovhannes Avoyan, “This is a big deal. This is a major step forward in the industry and we are excited to be at the forefront of this innovation. With this new addition Monitis becomes a true Swiss army knife for the IT administrators. Our host of useful tools in one simple, easy-to-use package can be configured in 5 minutes and require zero maintenance efforts.”

Monitis’ Cloud-based Application Monitoring Tool provides monitoring, troubleshooting, root cause diagnosis, plus pro-active planning tools such as load generators, scalability analysis, resource usage analysis and more. Specifically, the Java Application Monitoring tool:

• Monitors every metric, log, and configuration for all JMX resources in your inventory
• Identifies problem resources
• Controls all JMX resources on-demand
• Sends alerts on any measurement, log, or security event in your JMX environment

First-generation and second-generation internal and external monitoring systems have been notoriously complex and difficult to use. When it launched, Monitis’ third generation suite of monitoring tools fundamentally changed this dynamic. With it’s latest UI upgrade, the user experience has been made even simpler. The new changes include:

• A new internal monitoring wizard. The new wizard helps users get set-up faster with no complexity or hassle. The steps in the new wizard are now easier to follow and now enable simultaneous setup of multiple agents (bulk add) and of multiple test types (CPU, process, etc).
• New options in the toolbar. The toolbar now enables users to change the number of columns, enable/disable flash charts, and collapse/expand modules directly from dashboard’s toolbar. The Help section has also been revised.
• Improved visibility and access in the tab bar. The size of the tab bar has been increased, allowing users to see more tabs without scrolling. The tab carousel has also been improved, making it more convenient to scroll and switch between tabs.
• Significant performance enhancements for IE users.

Hovhannes Avoyan, Monitis’ Founder and CEO, commented, “We already had the easiest-to-use all-in-one monitoring suite on the market. With our most recent UI overhaul and upgrade, we’ve gone from strength to strength. As per usual, we’ve been relentless in our pursuit of ways to help IT managers and system administrators save time.”

Until today, Monitis was providing monitoring only for Amazon’s EC2 and S3 services. With the release of its Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework, Monitis can now sync to other Cloud computing providers very quickly – from Rackspace, GoGrid, Softlayer, and more. Monitis’ Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework will automate monitoring in highly dynamic cloud environments, where customers’ servers maybe added and terminated according to the load by management software or manually.

Given this dynamism, setting up end-user experience monitoring can become a tedious, resource intensive and error-prone process. Monitis’ Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework automates the configuration of external monitoring and server monitoring tools every time a new installation is called for – saving IT managers and system administrators around the world enormous time and hassle.

In addition to saving IT managers’ time, Monitis’ Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework gives users the confidence that comes from using a 3^rd party tool to monitor Cloud infrastructure in an independent manner.  Even when Cloud computing providers provide some sort of monitoring, there is an inherent conflict of interest – as they are keen to show higher uptime. By providing a customized, independent audit of SLAs (service level agreements), Monitis’ Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework increases the credibility of Cloud computing providers claims, which ultimately benefits both users and the industry, as a whole.

“We are passionate about one thing: saving IT managers’ massive amounts of time. The release of our Universal Cloud Monitoring Framework does just that.” said Monitis’ Founder and CEO, Hovhannes Avoyan. “It is also the first sortie in our move to become the industry standard for monitoring from the Cloud. We are already far, far ahead of the rest of the competition, but watch this space – more exciting things are yet to come!”

“The cloud is the next frontier of IT operations management,” said Dennis Callaghan, enterprise software analyst at The 451 Group. “With its ability to do performance monitoring, testing and configuration management in the Cloud, and of workloads running in the Cloud, at an affordable price, we believe Monitis is a company to watch in the nascent Cloud management space.”

“To be invited to compete at The 451 Group’s 2009 Innovator’s Showcase was an honor in itself,” said Hovhannes Avoyan, Monitis’ Founder and CEO. “But to have over 350 opinion leaders from around the world choose Monitis as the most innovative start-up for 2009 is thrilling. It’s testament to the fact that we’ve hit upon a real market need with a product that is at least a generation ahead of the competition.”
