An Intellyx Brain Candy Update
We last covered Pepperdata in May 2017.
Pepperdata is making moves in APM and observability space with a secret sauce for monitoring and optimizing the cost and performance of big data clusters and analytics stacks, whether on-premises or in cloud infrastructure.
Observability at this scale isn’t just about visibility and alerts. It’s about empowering people to anticipate and take action on the significant problems — hopefully before they start escalating out of control.
As companies migrate common data stacks like Kafka, Hadoop, and Spark to Hybrid IT infrastructures that can span multiple private and public cloud services, they often run into an unanticipated operational cost and performance buzzsaw, and usage and data storage costs often swell rapidly when exposed to production queries and inserts.
The Pepperdata platform provides a unified dashboard for monitoring performance metrics and consumption costs across big data stacks wherever they reside, in the data center, Amazon EMR, Cloudera, Azure, and others. A lightweight agent maps to the sources, allowing metrics to flow back to the administrator’s view with low performance overhead and no exposure of private data.
