We're officially cool! Dashbird is extremely proud to be named as a Cool Vendor by Gartner in Monitoring, Observability, and Cloud Operations in their 28 April 2021 report on "Cool Vendors in Monitoring, Observability and Cloud Operations".
Why Gartner think we're cool?
"Dashbird provides a novel approach to observability for serverless applications that run inside an AWS environment. Monitoring a serverless environment can be particularly complex as it may involve thousands of separate microservices, and the tools that AWS provides are difficult to use at scale."
Dashbird brings all your mission-critical AWS data onto one dashboard and lets you know in seconds what's going on in your application and alerts you immediately of errors and warnings, and where exactly is the issue located, so you can jump in and fix it before anything starts affecting your customers. In fact, Dashbird has helped Onfleet directly to prevent their customers from churning!
Dashbird's customers include application developers, Site reliability engineers (SREs), enterprise architects, and DevOps and IT operations teams, in large enterprises and startups across various verticals, responsible for the performance of applications hosted in a serverless environment.
Customers value Dashbird's easy-to-understand metrics dashboard helping them save up to 80% on their MTTD/R and debugging, quick and easy 2-minute setup that doesn't require any code changes, and the actionable recommendations for improving their infrastructure in accordance with industry best practices.
"Monitoring and operating large-scale serverless applications introduces new challenges for developers, architects, and SRE engineers that require special know-how and significant implementation. Our approach of abstracting and automating monitoring use cases and not requiring instrumentation has proven i*deal for serverless*" says Taavi Rehemägi, CEO at Dashbird.
So what are the cool things Dashbird offers?
End-to-end centralized observability built specifically for AWS and serverless systems
Purpose-built for serverless, Dashbird collects monitoring data from AWS. Dashbird monitors multiple cloud components in AWS cloud, such as Lambda functions, API Gateways, SQS queues, ECS containers, Kinesis, Step-Functions, and DynamoDB tables. Every datapoint that exists in your cloud environment (logs, metrics, and traces), centralized under one roof. Dashbird makes it easy to visualize, search, query, and interrogate all there is to know about your serverless application, from high level to a single transaction. Dashbird features a full-fledged log analytics functionality that is powered by ElasticSearch.
Real-time automated prebuilt alarms and analytics for all your metrics
Dashbird automatically detects errors, code exceptions, timeouts, cold starts, downstream service failures, and anomalies from logs and metrics in real-time and alerts you immediately when you should react to an incident via Slack, e-mail, SNS, and/or webhooks. You can easily set prebuilt and custom filters for any metric condition across your infrastructure -- all in one place -- in the Dashbird dashboard.
Well-Architected actionable insights encourage continuous improvement and compliance with industry best practices
Dashbird features over 100 complex insight checks continuously scanning your entire serverless environment against the AWS Well-Architected best practices. You can immediately see how well your infrastructure is architected against each of the five pillars (cost optimization, security, performance, operational excellence, and reliability) on the progress bars.
Dashbird will let you know which incidents are affecting your system health in each pillar and provides you with step-by-step guides for remediation. No need learn the lengthy AWS white papers and go through manual system audits anymore!
Easy set up
Dashbird requires no code changes to your functions while still giving you end-to-end visibility. Setting up takes 2 minutes and you run no risk of affecting your application.
