To integrate Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon ECS with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon ECS and how that can support your monitoring system.
Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service. The service provides predictable performance and can scale seamlessly. Administrative tasks, such as operating and scaling a distributed database are handled automatically. You never have to worry about cluster scaling, software patching, replication, or set up and configuration.
DynamoDB encrypts data while not in use, keeping your data safe and secure at all times. The database tables you create can be stored and easily retrieved even during high peak traffic. Tables can be scaled up or down without loss of performance or downtime. Performance metrics and resource utilization can be monitored through your AWS Management Console.
The on-demand back-up makes it possible for you to create complete back-ups of all tables that you can keep in storage or archive for future needs. The back-ups can be enabled with a specific point-in-time recovery, which helps to protect your tables from being accidentally over-written or deleted.
Expired items can be set to delete automatically at a certain time, freeing up storage space.
As a non-relational service, Amazon DynamoDB is reliable and capable of helping small businesses as well as large companies. The back-up and restores, built-in security, and in-memory caching make it the best choice for any size business.
The AWS DynamoDB is chosen for Internet of Things, mobile, gaming, web, ad tech, and other applications requiring low-latency access to data. You create a new table and DynamoDB handles the rest of the work.
Integrate Amazon DynamoDB with MetricFire for complete control over all of your data. The DynamoDB is a perfect database for applications requiring consistent millisecond latency at any scale. MetricFire allows you to see this in real time.
With MetricFire, you can integrate with tools you know and trust. Stay on top of exactly what's going on at all times by monitoring the performance of your software and servers. Data is sent over high-resolution dashboards that show you exactly, in detail, what is happening with the technology stored inside. Plus, you are instantly alerted to any discrepancies or irregular behavior.
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a container management service that is fully managed, fast, and secure. It makes it easy for you to run, stop, and manage containers on a cluster. It should not be confused with Amazon EC2 that is used to manage the computing capacity and resources of the infrastructure used to store and run your containers. However, Amazon ECS and Amazon EC2 are often used together to manage your containers and the infrastructure they run on.
Containers are used for packaging application code, configurations, and dependencies into a single object, ensuring quick, reliable, and consistent deployments, regardless of your software environment. AWS provides a range of tools to help you register, manage, and run your application containers.
You can create task definitions that you use to run individual tasks or tasks within a service for each of your containers. AWS Fargate can run your tasks for you, or if you need more control, you can run your services or tasks on a cluster of Amazon EC2 instances.
Amazon ECS launches and stops your container-based applications by using simple API calls. You can also retrieve your cluster's state from a centralized service that gives you access to many Amazon EC2 features.
Monitoring your Amazon ECS resources is simple by using Amazon CloudWatch. The metrics you collect depend on the task launch type you use. If you use Fargate launch types for your services, then CPU and memory utilization metrics are provided to monitor your services. For the Amazon EC2 launch types, you need to monitor the EC2 instances yourself. This is where MetricFire can help you out.
With MetricFire, you can turbocharge your Amazon ECS monitoring services. By integrating Amazon CloudWatch with the MetricFire platform, you can display your metrics on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. MetricFire's advanced filtering lets you choose only the data views you want to see and discard the rest. You can also set up simple rules to discard data you no longer keep, plus receive alerts via email or Slack when your ECS service is doing something it shouldn't.
To integrate Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon ECS with your monitoring system, sign up for a free trial with MetricFire. Talk with the MetricFire team about how to integrate Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon ECS and get Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon ECS interacting with your MetricFire dashboards directly.
MetricFire is a full-scale platform that provides infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. We enable you to use Hosted Graphite and aesthetic custom dashboards to visualize your metrics so you can understand what is happening.
MetricFire offers users a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, comprised of popular open-source monitoring software services: Graphite and popular dashboards. Plugins for many other open-source projects are preconfigured, such as StatsD, collectd, and Kubernetes. You get all these within a hosted environment as a single product. Not only does MetricFire fit well into the infrastructure monitoring use-case, such as network monitoring and server monitoring, but we also do application monitoring and business intelligence.
Through this hosted environment, MetricFire boosts the unique features of open-source projects to give you more functionality than the original products. Below are some of the MetricFire features at a glance:
The key thing to remember is that Hosted Graphite by MetricFire is more than just Graphite. Our Hosted Graphite product actually adds data dimensionality and better data storage.
The benefits of MetricFire are:
“We now have over ten times the amount of metrics we started with, and on different accounts. One of the great things about MetricFire is that scaling to support this increase has been hassle-free, requiring no additional work on our side.”
“Building and managing an on-premise installation at this scale would require a lot of engineer time, especially in the first year...we use this engineering time to work on initiatives closer to our core business”
“There’s complete transparency with everything MetricFire do which means we can accurately predict what we’ll be spending and comfortably keep within our budget.”
"Every time I have a question, I get an answer from support after just a couple of hours. Their technical knowledge is excellent.”
You can ensure your Linux virtual machine is operating at its peak efficiency and... Continue Reading
