The success stories and technological potential of the partnership between Skyone and AWS are always highlighted here on our blog. We have already seen that cloud computing can serve different types of market segments, reduce costs and promote company growth.
In addition to offering a lot of innovation, you can have access to a large set of tools to better manage your infrastructure and projects. Cloud management is considered critical and should be prioritized by IT teams responsible for all operational and support infrastructure. And to succeed in this challenge, there is a set of AWS tools that manage, monitor and support all the work that needs to be done.
Understanding AWS Tools for Cloud IT Management
While all tools have features that set them apart, they are also focused on one key concept: providing information about cloud computing systems. Leading cloud infrastructure management products offer similar features:
- Support for different cloud types ( public, private and hybrid )
- Support the creation and support of resources such as servers, storage and/or applications
- Providing reports on the status of the infrastructure used, uptime, response time, quota usage, etc.
Below, we've compiled a list of IT management tools for cloud computing provided by AWS. They aim to manage costs, usage and, consequently, optimize the cloud.
