Integrity successfully performed its key functions. It let us view and compare a baseline set of app files with a separate test system. We also used it to provision app changes and to roll back changes that caused problems. However, we did spend a great deal of time in the training material to understand how all of this works.
We then wanted to see how well mValent tracked and alerted us to changes. We initially turned on notification for all changes, but found ourselves flooded with too much data. We then limited alerts to changes that would hurt performance. Monitoring changes to WebSphere's serverindex.xml, for instance, was more meaningful.
MValent includes out-of-the box automation that lets you script routine activities, such as deploying a new application server. You also can automate other tasks specific to business, security policies or other standard deployment components.
From an audit and operational troubleshooting perspective, mValent stores the current state of the asset as well as every version of the configuration of the asset over a period of time. If mValent initiates a change or detects a change in the asset, it captures that change in a version. MValent also can act as a front-end engine that creates app master images that can be pushed into provisioning systems. This is useful for those with many provisioning updates that must be monitored and tracked.
Subsea cable alternatives can provide a level of comfort for those concerned about disruptions. Realistically, they will continue to play a small, but critical role in the short term.
Maintaining existing network infrastructures often incurs huge technical debt before newer technologies are adopted over time.
Amid ongoing regional uncertainties, telecom infrastructure in the Middle East has expand to include terrestrial low-latency network infrastructure, which offers resilience and agility in navigating political complexities without relying solely on undersea networks.
