Let’s explain Monitoring-as-a-Service (MaaS)
In a globally competitive business, we understand the need to ensure that your ICT systems always stay functional. As part of our IT Managed Services portfolio, we offer Monitoring-as-a-Service (MaaS) to help you do this, by remotely managing all your ICT systems.
By gathering data and reports, we can monitor services and applications in a public or private cloud environment. This allows us to get a single view on all your business systems and recognise and escalate issues as they arise. Our monitoring includes tracking performance, enabling you to identify availability and capacity trends, systems governance and Enterprise Systems Management (ESM) administration.
Service components
Our service activities range across five main categories:
Systems monitoring and data collection
Managing and supporting the capability of the ESM Toolset to monitor and report on the performance of specific components within your monitored infrastructure
- Collecting performance information from in-scope components and storing it in an associated database
- Gathering data based on pre-defined threshold limits, at set intervals
- Standard performance reporting
