This is a more common question than it seems.<\/p>\n\n
And it is almost always accompanied by phrases like:<\/p>\n\n

\ud83d\udc49 the problem is almost never the monitoring itself<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n Monitoring fails when:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 It’s not the tool. It’s how you use it. <\/p>\n\n Today there are very powerful tools available:<\/p>\n\n All of them work well.<\/p>\n\n All detect problems.<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 So why don’t they help?<\/p>\n\n Because detecting is not the same as managing.<\/p>\n\n One of the most common mistakes: to monitor everything… without criteria.<\/p>\n\n Result:<\/p>\n\n Nobody knows what is really important<\/p>\n\n Another common situation:<\/p>\n\n The team has to:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 time is lost before action is taken<\/p>\n\n Monitoring detects.<\/p>\n\n But it does not decide.<\/p>\n\n Then this happens:<\/p>\n\n and the problem continues to grow<\/p>\n\n Many monitoring implementations end up like this:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 detect \u2192 report \u2192 end<\/p>\n\n But the most important thing is missing:<\/p>\n\n what happens next<\/strong><\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 without this, monitoring is incomplete.<\/p>\n\n Because monitoring alone does not solve anything.<\/p>\n\n It is only the first step.<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 Detecting is easy \ud83d\udc49 less alerts, more focus.<\/p>\n\n Each alert should respond:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 do not force the team to investigate from scratch.<\/p>\n\n Each alert must have:<\/p>\n\n someone to take it<\/p>\n\n And if you do not respond:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 automatic scaling<\/p>\n\n Monitoring does not end with the alert.<\/p>\n\n Must continue with:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 that’s real operation<\/p>\n\n This is where many companies make the switch.<\/p>\n\n They continue to use their monitoring tools.<\/p>\n\n But they add a layer on top.<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 a management layer<\/p>\n\n 24Cevent takes alerts from tools such as Zabbix, Datadog or Dynatrace and handles:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 turns alerts into actions<\/p>\n\n Your monitoring is probably working<\/p>\n\n But:<\/p>\n\n therefore does not generate value<\/p>\n\n Monitoring is not the problem.<\/p>\n\n The problem is thinking that monitoring is enough.<\/p>\n\n Companies that really improve their operations do this:<\/p>\n\n \ud83d\udc49 monitor well And that’s where everything changes.<\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n If today you feel that your monitoring generates more noise than value, you probably don’t need to change tools, but rather improve the way you manage those alerts.<\/p>\n\n 24Cevent allows you to take what you already have and turn it into a clear flow of action, ensuring real incident response, tracking and coordination.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Monitoring fails when: it is misconfigured, generates too much noise, does not have clear accountabilities, is not connected to an action.

The myth: “the tool is useless”.<\/h1>\n\n
\n
The real problem: too many alerts<\/h1>\n\n
\n
Lack of context<\/h1>\n\n
\n
\n
No clear responsibility<\/h1>\n\n
\n
No flow of action<\/h1>\n\n
\n
So why is it “no good”?<\/h1>\n\n
How to improve this?<\/h1>\n\n
Reduce noise<\/h2>\n\n
\n
2. Add context<\/h2>\n\n
\n
3. Define responsible parties<\/h2>\n\n
4. Connect with action<\/h2>\n\n

Where does 24Cevent come in?<\/h1>\n\n

So what is really going on?<\/h1>\n\n
