Effective monitoring solutions are critical to the smooth running of enterprise systems. However, real-world constraints present several challenges in designing such solutions. With the increasing scale and complexity of today's enterprise IT systems and their increasing use for business-critical applications, traditional approaches to monitoring must be reconsidered. This article stresses the need for a paradigm-shift from manual intuition-led approaches to an automated analytics-driven approach to monitor the IT systems. The authors propose that analytics-led solutions can provide powerful levers to design monitoring and event management solutions for next-generation enterprise IT systems.
