Chaos experiments have revealed weak points and now provide controlled cost-saving tests

The best features of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform are the safe failure injection, which is crucial as we can simulate the failures in a manner that we know these are just dumping tests and not the actual issues. Whether it is the CPU spike or the memory exhaustion, or the network latency, or the server shutdown, server shutdown is one of the most favorite features that I have in Gremlin Reliability Management Platform. The controlled blast radius is another standout feature. The controlled blast radius feature has helped my team in that we actually wanted to target only one specific container, our Docker containers that we deployed. It helped us to conduct tests in a very specific, isolated manner instead of launching a larger test or focusing on hundreds of servers at a time, resulting in very limited impact. Since ours is a very small team, we do not want to impact other servers. This controlled blast radius helped us to only focus on our servers and not impact any other team. Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has positively impacted my organization because before Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we did not even know how to conduct these chaos engineering tests. We heard about it, but we had no idea of how to do something of that nature. If there are ten servers, ten systems in our architecture and if suddenly something goes down, nobody knew what would happen next. We did not even know how to simulate these types of tests. This lack of confidence has been mitigated by using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform. Now we can confidently test and see which system is the most critical. If this goes down, what happens? How much business valuation are we going to impact? How much loss are we going to incur? All of this is now clearly visible and transparent. Since using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we were able to reduce the incidents by six percent after conducting our limited experiments. We were also able to increase the uptime from ninety-eight to ninety-nine, which represents a one percent increase in uptime.

Used to monitor devices and provides the hardware alarms feature

Huawei eSight has helped me overcome many monitoring aspects of the hardware. From a single view, I can monitor all the hardware. Instead of logging on to each piece of hardware and monitoring it individually, I can monitor them from one single point. I would recommend the solution to other users because it provides a single point of view of the hardware. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has positively impacted our organization by making outages less frequent and improving recovery time significantly, resulting in fewer complaints on the customer success side and overall optimization of our DevOps process."

"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has impacted my organization positively as it helped a lot and reduced our failures, allowing us to find critical pinpoints in our application that had existed for three to ten months and led to too many improvements, reduced downtime, and a smoother experience for our application on AWS."

"The Enterprise Reliability Platform has positively impacted my organization as it has significantly increased the efficiency and reliability of our systems."

"More than anything, we fix failures even before they occur, which is basically proactive risk detection and risk mitigation."

"We are seeing a return on investment from using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform because we are getting less production issues by thirty percent, as I mentioned earlier, making it a great investment."

"One of the most beneficial features of Huawei eSight is its simplicity and ease of use."

"I like the real-time location monitor or RTLS feature. It is similar to the monitoring feature in Cisco Prime."

"Since we have a central monitoring system, we can proactively monitor those devices, easily capture any abnormalities before major downtime, and quickly address the issues before they become a bigger problem in the future."

"The solution's most valuable dashboard features include monitoring storage, resource availability, and hardware alarms."

"We use this solution to monitor our sales."

"Huawei eSight provides businesses with monitoring capabilities of network devices across your network."

"I like that it supports all our Huawei devices. Unlike other network monitoring tools that monitor Huawei devices, it provides more details when it comes to monitoring or management. We can get complete details about the devices, and management is also simple."

"We can scale the solution."

Cons

"If you really look at the cost-benefit visibility, it is not very evident by using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform."

"I think that it will be important to have resources to perform self-directed studies on Gremlin Reliability Management Platform as an improvement."

"Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved as the pricing is a bit expensive and the learning curve for beginners is a bit difficult."

"I rate it an eight because we are still using it on a trial and error basis, and the pricing could be optimized for better cost visibility and ROI tracking."

"I think Gremlin Reliability Management Platform can be improved by integrating with more AWS services or GCP services."

"The price could be less costly."

"This solution could be improved by offering monitoring for all devices and not only Huawei devices."

"The variety of license types should be made simpler as, at present, it is complex."

"Huawei eSight should work on the option to have the email notification working on Office 365 Exchange."

"It is not a very flexible product. We cannot change much from our side."

"The price is very expensive."

"The solution and the operating system come separately. It would be easier if we did not have to deploy anything. A bundle feature would be better."

"Technical support for the solution is not so good."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The pricing for Huawei eSight is reasonable, especially with the base license and incremental licenses for additional devices. However, the variety of license types can be a bit complex. We used to sell eSight but switched to another solution, so we're not actively trading it anymore."

"The price is very expensive."

"I would rate this solution a nine out of ten for pricing. The pricing depends on which features you use and can become expensive."

"Pricing depends on the competition. If your competitor is like Cisco, then Huawei is much more competitive when it comes to pricing."

"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."

"Its pricing is better than any other Huawei product. Some products are cheaper in Huawei, and some products are cheaper in Cisco. Cisco has more benefits and options than Huawei if you consider different network environments."
