AS CLOUD BECOMES UBIQUITOUS, EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT IS KEY

With the on-demand nature of cloud computing touching every aspect of our lives, the requirements for effective migration and integration become increasingly important.

More than 85% of companies will have a cloud-first attitude by 2025, according to Gartner. And the organizations that embrace cloud will have to take account of both the digital workloads they create and the operations they will serve.

Even more critical is that business leaders understand exactly what is required from cloud solutions, with availability, reliability, and customer engagement opportunities all part of the cloud puzzle. Simply put, a poorly managed cloud environment can impact not only time-to-market but also potential revenue, brand reputation and customer satisfaction. In today’s hypercompetitive marketplace, threats to any of these can be hard to overcome.

SRE Management Solutions
What We Do

SOLVING THE SITE RELIABILITY CHALLENGES THAT CLOUD MIGRATION & INTEGRATION BRING

Our Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) expertise has been honed over 18+ years. We employ the latest methodologies, accelerators and enablers, and other cloud-based tools to deliver end-to-end support, irrespective of industry sector or digital maturity. Our teams are comprised of highly skilled reliability engineers who help facilitate automation and system improvements. These teams ensure adoption of DevOps constructs without any knowledge transfer required of the client, operational readiness review and transition and proactively identify improvement areas and ensuring assurance on stability.

SRE functions are inevitably outcome-based. This requires a partner that can provide knowledge management, easy resource transition and team induction, and shield organizations from attrition and transition challenges. We ensure full transparency on incident summaries, self-service reporting and SLO-based joint decision-making powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and a strong data backbone. Apexon’s SRE services encompass the entire spectrum of cloud management.

Our approach

Our Cloud Management & Operations offerings

Apexon’s commitment to “Cloud Done Right” is the foundation for our fully serviced Cloud Management and Operations offerings. This is based on the understanding that companies are looking for the answers to identified challenges in their cloud migration and adoption requirements.

Our SRE services are designed to take in both the cloud journey and the level of maturity an entity has — from initial assessment and business optimization strategies to launching cloud initiatives and automating defined processes and requirements within the cloud platform itself. The framework that we create from our end-to-end assessment is ultimately measured against 7 pillars within the Support/SRE Implementation Process Flow – availability, durability, throughput, latency, traffic, error rate and saturation.

This Process Flow includes:

IDENTIFICATION OF SERVICE LEVEL INDICATORS & OBJECTIVES
Identification of Service Level

These include key tenets such as:

  • Auto provisioning
  • 24/7 monitoring and availability
  • Scaling and capacity planning
  • Timely patching
  • Incident response mechanism

FAQ’s – Site Reliability Engineering

Site reliability engineering (SRE) tools are essential for monitoring, managing, and optimizing system performance and reliability. These tools include advanced monitoring systems like Prometheus and Grafana, alerting frameworks such as Alertmanager, and incident management platforms like PagerDuty. Additionally, configuration management tools such as Ansible and orchestration platforms like Kubernetes are critical in automating operations and maintaining system reliability. By leveraging SRE tools, organizations can proactively identify and address issues before they impact end-users, ensuring smoother operations and higher system uptime.

Site reliability engineering (SRE) services encompass a range of activities designed to enhance system reliability and performance. These services typically include assessing current system reliability, implementing best practices for incident management, developing custom monitoring solutions, and providing ongoing support and optimization. SRE consultants work closely with organizations to tailor solutions that meet their specific needs and improve overall system resilience.

Observability is a core principle in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) that enables teams to gain real-time insights into the health and performance of their systems. By utilizing observability tools, such as metrics, logs, and traces, SRE teams can monitor system behavior, quickly identify anomalies, and resolve issues before they escalate. Effective observability ensures proactive management of systems, contributing to higher reliability, better performance, and a smoother user experience.

SRE technologies play a crucial role in effective system management by providing tools and frameworks that automate and streamline various aspects of system operations. These technologies include automated deployment pipelines, real-time monitoring systems, and sophisticated alerting mechanisms. By integrating SRE technologies, organizations can reduce manual intervention, enhance system visibility, and quickly respond to potential issues, leading to more reliable and efficient system management.
