01
The Challenge
Start date of the project: December 2020
End date of the project: September 2021
Facing the challenge of managing some applications with always increasing compute, memory and storage requirements and wanting to proactively monitor the status, the health, and the performance of these applications, Schneider Electric decided to use a home-made monitoring system.
02
The Solution
The home-made monitoring system will be used to identify and troubleshoot production events and to implement a proactive monitoring approach to quickly diagnose and troubleshoot issues before they become Critical.
To create the solution desired by the customer, Eviden, an atos business developed scripts in Python, Windows PowerShell, and SQL, that connect to the different systems to be monitored (Redshift, Presto and Oracle).
The scripts check the health of the Databases services, and automatically alert via email, in case of failures or performance degradation.
03
The Outcome
The monitoring and reporting scripts were written in Python & Microsoft PowerShell to build on existing skills and well-known technologies.
We also leveraged an AWS EC2 instance to support our Windows server 2016 Datacenter used for this solution.
