1. op5 Monitor - Scalable Monitoring
A solution that grows with your needs
This PP-presentation is for Scalable monitoring. It can be handled as a deck of cards, were you can pick out one or two slides and add them to another presentation.
Modifying the effects on each slide is optional. Adding or removing effects on each slide (appear- effect) can be made, its up to you.

If changes are made in the top headline, the Agenda have to Manuel be changed.

3. Why Scale? Why scale your monitoring?
Keeping up with changes in business and IT
Scale out instead of up
Load-balancing and automatic fail-over
Security - network failure
Distributed Monitoring over Several locations
Monitor your applications in the cloud
Several NOC´s
Monitor from user perspective
In this page there is room for custom changes to fit your specific needs with the presentation.
Explanation for each point:
Why Scale - Referring to the common problems, issues regarding scaling monitoring.
Keeping up with changes in business and IT - The constant changes in the IT environment and in business, were the ability to respond rapidly to growth (scale) is a success factor. Keeping even pace whit the ever changing environments creates new possibilities for company’s
Scale out, not up – When scaling a system it is common to start by stuffing as much as possible into existing server, at the cost of a slower system. Share the workload between servers to ensure no one is under or over utilized. Preventing failures
Load-balancing – Se above
Distributed Monitoring over several location – When monitoring several different locations a distributed setup the best option, handling the load. A distributed setups is ideal when when there is a need for a wide geographical coverage and when you need a resilient design.
How we monitor cloud applications – Room for personal changes
Several NOC´s -
Monitoring from uses perspective, GUI, easy-to understand, easy to use. etc

New configuration is distributed to the peers
The peers dive the load automatically
When one peer go down, the other(s) take over the load

7. Redundancy Redundancy scenario High availability Resilient design
Same data on all peers
Automatic fail-over
If one location is lost, the other(s) will continue monitoring
Provided tools to merge report data

Explanation for the shadow background on both USA and India model.
It shows the different depths that each “site” USA or India have. Displaying what lies behind every site in form of other sites. So when USA for example goes down, the India site can pick up the underlying sites in USA and display the in India.
