Automation has simplified traffic management and improved workload efficiency

I'm not really sure what improvements I would want to see in AWS Auto Scaling because I haven't really used it extensively or explored most of it. To the extent that I've used it so far, I think it is very good. I can't really say for certain what should be improved because I haven't really explored it a lot. However, what I've been using it for has been very good. If there could be training for AWS Auto Scaling, that would be fine. If you could add more training on how to use it correctly and on the functions that I haven't used before or some people have not really used before, that would help. If there could be more documentation and training on it, that would be beneficial.

It consolidates all logs into one place and provides required features and functionalities

Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to do RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It is a stable platform."

"AWS Auto Scaling is cost-effective and very useful for businesses."

"AWS Auto Scaling is very good for managing traffic and creating new instances when necessary."

"It helps us to reduce the cost."

"The solution's monitoring effectively monitors our application and CPU utilization."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to select a minimum amount of active servers so that a new server automatically launches if one fails."

"The good thing about Autoscaling is that it provides the capacity to minimize downtime. So, it gives you the assurance of stability and robustness within your system."

"The health check integration feature ensures that the instances are healthy and capable of absorbing traffic, thus serving their purpose effectively."

More AWS Auto Scaling pros

"With LogDNA, which brings all the logs together in an interleaved stream, it allows us to take a transaction and relate it to other contextual events making the gathering of evidence for auditors and our internal RCA much more productive."

"We haven't had anything yet that we couldn't do through LogDNA."

"LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."

"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface."

Cons

"The tool's stability could be improved."

"AWS Auto Scaling's documentation could be better."

"In comparison to other public clouds, the product is costly."

"The solution's infrastructure scalability and elasticity could be improved."

More AWS Auto Scaling cons

I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue."

"Scalability could be improved; we are using it through the IBM cloud deployment and on some of the data centers that are very heavily used, there is a significant lag in the event stream, sometimes 10, 15 minutes behind, which makes the RCA impossible."

"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS Auto Scaling is an expensive solution."

"AWS Auto Scaling is a cheap solution."

"AWS Auto Scaling is a pay-per-use and pay-as-you-use service."

Overview

AWS Auto Scaling monitors your applications and automatically adjusts capacity to maintain steady, predictable performance at the lowest possible cost. Using AWS Auto Scaling, it’s easy to setup application scaling for multiple resources across multiple services in minutes. The service provides a simple, powerful user interface that lets you build scaling plans for resources including Amazon EC2 instances and Spot Fleets, Amazon ECS tasks, Amazon DynamoDB tables and indexes, and Amazon Aurora Replicas. AWS Auto Scaling makes scaling simple with recommendations that allow you to optimize performance, costs, or balance between them. If you’re already using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to dynamically scale your Amazon EC2 instances, you can now combine it with AWS Auto Scaling to scale additional resources for other AWS services. With AWS Auto Scaling, your applications always have the right resources at the right time.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Today’s enterprises must manage a massive amount of machine data. They require a platform that enables engineering teams to deliberately route and store structured and unstructured data for different teams with unique use cases. Legacy platforms weren’t made for this moment.
‍
Mezmo, formerly LogDNA, lets organizations ingest, process, route, analyze, and store all of their log data. Purpose-built for modern engineering teams—including developers, SREs, IT Operations, and Security Engineers—the Mezmo platform is trusted by thousands of companies for SaaS, cloud, and hybrid applications.
