Real time failure point detection and operational health monitoring of Cloud Infra
Cloud Infra down time directly results in lost Engineering productivity time. Infra resilience and robust is every engineering team's responsibility. In a complex cloud software solution, there are interconnected dependencies. This exposes us to multi point failure. Current cloud infra monitoring process has challenges, namely: The current tools monitor individual parameters and a real time co-relation is missing. In a complex interconnected services infra, if a component fails, reaching actual issue component is major portion of the troubleshooting time. Proactive health monitoring is limited to checking feature running status post deployment. There is a gap how the system behaves during the actual deployment. Our proposed solution to building robust software health monitoring system draws parallel from the health care process. During a critical operation, the entire patient monitoring is kept active to keep the overall situation under control. On a similar analogy, in this paper we present how we addressed infra failure issues and real time monitoring during active deployment and regular time. We corelate Dependency tree, AWS Realtime logs, db queries, Jenkins and Harness logs, network connectivity, CPU consumption and many other attributes. We take inputs from multiple monitoring systems and corelate the data for better infra health status.
