Relationships Between AOM and Other Services

AOM can work with Simple Message Notification (SMN), Distributed Message Service (DMS), and Cloud Trace Service (CTS). For example, when you subscribe to SMN, AOM can inform related personnel of threshold rule status changes by email or Short Message Service (SMS) message. When AOM interconnects with middleware services such as Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and Elastic Load Balance (ELB), you can monitor them in AOM. When AOM interconnects with Cloud Container Engine (CCE) or Cloud Container Instance (CCI), you can monitor their basic resources and applications, and view related logs and alarms.

Figure 1 Relationships between AOM and other services

SMN

SMN can push notifications by SMS message, email, or app based on your requirements. You can integrate application functions through SMN to reduce system complexity.

AOM uses the message transmission mechanism of SMN. When it is inconvenient for you to query threshold rule status changes on site, AOM sends such changes to you by email or SMS messages. In this way, you can obtain resource status and other information in real time and take necessary measures to avoid service loss.

OBS

Object Storage Service (OBS) is a secure, reliable, and cost-effective cloud storage service. With OBS, you can easily create, modify, and delete buckets, as well as upload, download, and delete objects.

AOM allows you to dump logs to OBS buckets for long-term storage.

CTS

CTS records operations on cloud resources in your account. Based on the records, you can perform security analysis, monitor resource changes, conduct compliance audits, and locate faults. To store operation records for a longer time, you can subscribe to OBS and synchronize operation records to OBS in real time.

With CTS, you can record operations associated with AOM for future query, audit, and tracing.

IAM

Identity and Access Management (IAM) provides identity authentication, permission management, and access control.

IAM can implement authentication and fine-grained authorization for AOM.

Cloud Eye

Cloud Eye provides a multi-dimensional monitoring platform for resources such as Elastic Cloud Server (ECS) and bandwidth. With Cloud Eye, you can view the resource usage and service running status in the cloud, and respond to exceptions in a timely manner to ensure that services run smoothly.

By calling Cloud Eye APIs, AOM can obtain and display monitoring data of ECS, VPC, Relational Database Service (RDS), and Distributed Cache Service (DCS), so that you can monitor these services on the AOM console.

APM

APM monitors and manages the performance of cloud applications in real time. It provides performance analysis of distributed applications, helping O&M personnel quickly locate and resolve faults and performance bottlenecks.

AOM integrates APM functions to better monitor and manage applications.

VPC

VPC is a logically isolated virtual network. It is created for ECSs, and supports custom configuration and management, improving resource security and simplifying network deployment.

After subscribing to VPC, you can monitor VPC running status and metrics on the AOM console without installing other plug-ins.

ELB

ELB distributes access traffic to multiple backend ECSs based on forwarding policies. By distributing traffic, ELB expands the capabilities of application systems to provide services externally. By preventing single points of failures, ELB improves the availability of application systems.

After subscribing to ELB, you can monitor ELB running status and metrics on the AOM console without installing other plug-ins.

RDS

Relational Database Service (RDS) is a cloud-based web service that is reliable, scalable, and easy to manage.

After subscribing to RDS, you can monitor RDS running status and metrics on the AOM console without installing other plug-ins.

DCS

DCS is an online, distributed, in-memory cache service compatible with Redis, Memcached, and In-Memory Data Grid (IMDG). It is reliable, scalable, ready to use out-of-the-box, and easy to manage, meeting your requirements for high read/write performance and fast data access.

After subscribing to DCS, you can monitor DCS running status and metrics on the AOM console without installing other plug-ins.

CCE

CCE is a high-performance and scalable container service through which enterprises can build reliable containerized applications. It integrates network and storage capabilities, and is compatible with Kubernetes and Docker container ecosystems. CCE enables you to create and manage diverse containerized workloads easily. It also provides efficient O&M capabilities, such as container fault self-healing, monitoring log collection, and auto scaling.

You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about CCE on the AOM console.

AOS

Application Orchestration Service (AOS) provides a graphical designer, enabling you to provision cloud service resources and deploy applications intuitively and easily. By compiling templates, you can provision and copy cloud service resources and applications with just a few clicks. AOS also provides a large number of free sample templates, covering common cloud service and application scenarios. You can directly use these templates or customize your own templates.

You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about AOS on the AOM console.

ServiceStage

ServiceStage is a one-stop PaaS platform service for enterprises. It hosts applications of enterprises on the cloud to simplify application lifecycle management, covering deployment, monitoring, O&M, and governance. In addition, ServiceStage provides a microservice framework compatible with mainstream open-source ecosystems and decoupled from specific development frameworks and platforms, helping enterprises quickly build distributed applications based on microservice architectures.

You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about ServiceStage on the AOM console.

FunctionGraph

FunctionGraph hosts and computes functions in a serverless context. It automatically scales up/down resources during peaks and spikes without requiring the reservation of dedicated servers or capacities. Resources are billed on a pay-per-use basis.

You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about FunctionGraph on the AOM console.

IEF

Intelligent EdgeFabric (IEF) provides you a complete edge computing solution, in which cloud applications are extended to the edge. By leveraging edge-cloud synergy, you can manage edge nodes and applications remotely and process data nearby, to meet your requirements for remote control, data processing, analysis, decision-making, and intelligence of edge computing resources. In addition, you can perform O&M in the cloud, including edge node monitoring, application monitoring, and log collection.

You can monitor resources (such as edge nodes, applications, and functions), logs, and alarms about IEF on the AOM console without installing other plug-ins.

ECS

ECS is a computing server consisting of the CPU, memory, image, and Elastic Volume Service (EVS) disk. It supports on-demand allocation and auto scaling. ECSs integrate VPC, virtual firewall, and multi-data-copy capabilities to create an efficient, reliable, and secure computing environment. This ensures stable and uninterrupted running of services. After creating an ECS server, you can use it like using your local computer or physical server.

When purchasing an ECS, ensure that its OS meets the requirements in Table 1. In addition, install an ICAgent on the ECS. Otherwise, the ECS cannot be monitored by AOM. You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about this ECS on the AOM console.

BMS

Bare Metal Server (BMS) is a dedicated physical server in the cloud. It provides high-performance computing and ensures data security for core databases, key application systems, and big data. With the advantage of scalable cloud resources, you can apply for BMS servers flexibly and they are billed on a pay-per-use basis.

When purchasing a BMS server, ensure that its OS meets the requirements in Table 1. In addition, install an ICAgent on the server. Otherwise, the server cannot be monitored by AOM. You can monitor basic resources, applications, logs, and alarms about this server on the AOM console.
