Thus, we created a workload using AWS EC2 that allows the client to scale when the number of users of the platform increases significantly. The customer’s environment is monitored through the combined capabilities of CloudTrail and CloudWatch with a comprehensive and proactive approach to monitoring system health and performance. By setting predefined thresholds, it becomes possible to monitor key performance metrics such as CPU usage, network traffic, and storage capacity. When these values exceed configured thresholds, automatic alerts are triggered, enabling proactive intervention before problems escalate.
Through a careful analysis of resources, carried out together with SportExtra, we managed to create an online video platform, which offers users an unforgettable experience in viewing their favorite sports events. The same analysis and Dendrio know-how helped to reduce the TCO by 40%.
