Using OCI Observability services to monitor Enterprise Manager health
OCI Observability and Management services (O&M) provides a solution to help enrich Enterprise Manager (EM) monitoring. Any kind of target in your data center or on-premises may be monitored and managed by EM, but what about visibility into EM itself? This blog identifies the value that O&M services can offer to proactively identify health problems with an EM environment.
Oracle’s O&M solution includes two key services that can monitor EM sites running in OCI, on-premises, or another cloud provider.
Gain insight into the application stack's activities, including database calls to the EM repository, by using O&M APM. The APM service provides deep visibility into the performance of applications and provides the ability to diagnose issues quickly to deliver a consistent level of service. Typically, EM admins use a third party tool to perform this monitoring. Now this can be done with O&M services. Since synthetic tests are inexpensive and easy to implement, let's start with APM's Availability Monitoring (the rebranded name for Synthetic Monitoring).
