We implement distributed tracing to help you understand the flow of requests through your microservices architectures, making it easier to identify bottlenecks and optimise performance.
Alerting and Incident Management
We set up intelligent alerting systems and incident management processes to ensure rapid response to any issues in your cloud environment.
Custom Dashboards and Visualisations
We create tailored dashboards and visualisations that provide at-a-glance insights into your cloud operations, customised to your specific needs.
Addressing Key Challenges in Cloud Monitoring and Observability
Data Volume and Velocity
We implement scalable data ingestion and processing pipelines using cloud-native tools and big data technologies. Our approach includes intelligent data filtering and aggregation to manage data volume while retaining critical insights.
Complexity of Distributed Systems
We deploy advanced distributed tracing solutions that provide end-to-end visibility across your entire cloud ecosystem. Our approach includes implementing correlation IDs and service maps to understand dependencies and track requests across distributed services.
Alert Fatigue and Noise Reduction
We implement intelligent alerting systems with advanced filtering and correlation capabilities. Our approach includes setting up alert prioritisation, automated incident grouping, and machine learning-based anomaly detection to reduce noise and focus on critical issues.
Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Environment Monitoring
We develop unified monitoring strategies that work seamlessly across different environments. This includes using cloud-agnostic monitoring tools and implementing standardised metrics and logging formats for consistent visibility.
Cost of Monitoring at Scale
We implement cost-effective monitoring strategies, including selective data retention policies, tiered storage solutions, and optimised data sampling techniques. Our approach balances comprehensive visibility with cost efficiency.
Security and Compliance Monitoring
We implement holistic monitoring solutions that incorporate security and compliance aspects. This includes setting up automated compliance checks, security event monitoring, and integrating with SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) systems.
Application Performance Monitoring in Dynamic Environments
We deploy adaptive monitoring solutions that automatically adjust to changes in your cloud environment. This includes implementing dynamic instrumentation techniques and container-aware monitoring for effective tracking in ephemeral environments.
Root Cause Analysis in Complex Systems
We implement advanced root cause analysis tools that leverage AI and machine learning. Our approach includes setting up detailed dependency mapping and automated correlation of events across different layers of your cloud stack.
Monitoring Cloud-Native and Serverless Technologies
We deploy specialised monitoring solutions for cloud-native technologies, including container orchestration platforms and serverless environments. Our approach ensures visibility into these ephemeral and event-driven components.
User Experience Monitoring
We implement end-to-end user experience monitoring, including real user monitoring and synthetic transaction monitoring. This provides a holistic view of application performance from the user's perspective.
Our Approach
Building Observability in the Culture
Our cloud monitoring and observability process is comprehensive and proactive.
1. Assessment and Planning
We begin by assessing your current monitoring capabilities and developing a tailored observability strategy aligned with your business goals.
2. Tool Selection and Integration
We help you select and integrate the right set of monitoring and observability tools, leveraging AWS services and best-of-breed third-party solutions.
3. Instrumentation and Data Collection
We implement comprehensive instrumentation across your infrastructure and applications to collect relevant metrics, logs, and traces.
4. Data Analysis and Visualisation
We set up systems to analyse the collected data and create meaningful visualisations that provide actionable insights.
5. Alerting and Incident Response
We implement intelligent alerting systems and help you develop effective incident response processes.
6. Continuous Optimisation
We provide ongoing support to help you continuously refine your monitoring and observability practices, adapting to your evolving cloud environment.
7. Training and Knowledge Transfer
We train your team on monitoring best practices and how to effectively use the implemented tools, fostering a culture of observability.

Frequently Asked Questions
While closely related, monitoring typically refers to tracking predefined sets of metrics or logs. Observability goes a step further, providing the ability to understand the internal state of a system based on its external outputs. It enables you to ask new questions about your system’s behaviour without having to add new instrumentation.
Enhanced monitoring and observability can deliver numerous benefits, including faster issue resolution, improved application performance, reduced downtime, better capacity planning, and more informed decision-making. This often results in improved user experience, reduced operational costs, and increased ability to innovate safely.
We generally collect three types of telemetry data:
- Metrics: Quantitative data about the performance of your systems and applications.
- Logs: Detailed records of events occurring in your systems.
- Traces: Information about the path of requests through your distributed systems. The specific data collected is tailored to your unique environment and needs.
We leverage advanced data storage and analysis tools designed to handle high-volume, high-velocity data. This often includes using time-series databases for metrics, efficient log aggregation and indexing solutions and distributed tracing systems. We also implement data retention policies to manage storage costs while ensuring you have access to the data you need.
Absolutely. We have experience integrating with a wide range of monitoring and observability tools. While we often recommend AWS-native solutions for AWS environments, we can work with your existing tools or implement best-of-breed third-party solutions as needed to create a comprehensive monitoring ecosystem.
