Sanjeev Kumar . Monitoring Tool Integration: A Balanced View Across Cloud and Health Insurance Cloud Platforms. International Journal of Computer Applications. 186, 54 ( Dec 2024), 50-55. DOI=10.5120/ijca2024924264
Beside scalable, flexible, and efficient services provided by the IT infrastructure, scalability of cloud platforms brings with it such issues as performance security and reliability. The solution to such a problem needs integration of monitoring tools into cloud platforms. It is in that sense they give us visibility into what is going wrong in the systems, where the bottlenecks are, and make cloud service performance better overall. This paper analyzed the performance effect of integrating various monitoring tools into cloud environments, especially AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, including Datadog, Prometheus, and New Relic. This research focuses on the impact of monitoring latency, throughput, scalability, and cost-efficiency. For this study, those monitoring tools were replicated in diverse cloud environments, and workloads were simulated to examine system responsiveness and error rates. Results indicate significant great performance in detecting bottlenecks at early stages, with fewer cases of reduced downtime and better utilization of resources. However, there is overhead caused by constant monitoring that needs to be controlled. In conclusion, the integration of monitoring improves system performance. However, selective tool choice and configuration can reduce potential trade-offs due to overhead and cost. Future work may be built upon through studies on predictive monitoring using AI for further performance optimization.
