The term Full Stack Observability and more specifically Application Dependency Monitoring is a recent concept all around taking your monitoring and analytics to the next level.
Some companies have invested in their monitoring capabilities to this level; however, most don't have the resource availability, skills or knowledge available.
In this blog, we’re going to present some FAQ's from our customers who are new to the FSO Application Dependency Monitoring concept.

When a key application goes down, a business typically has staff that cannot work and customers that cannot be attended to – and that assumes the business isn’t in a critical service industry where failure of a key application would be catastrophic.
We’ve built a managed service around the concept of Application Dependency Monitoring, because we think this offers our customers a high value service to ensure their network can be quickly diagnosed when issues occur, but just as importantly to provide a reporting dashboard to give comfort that all is running normally.

At IPTel we offer all our customers a POV (Proof of Value) service which is provided to bring a customer visibility and to showcase what Application Dependency Monitoring can provide.

Post-POV conclusion we have a full service debrief to go through the findings and define how we can help your business achieve their goals in the long term.
