Context is king, in particular if you are troubleshooting your stack. Having all the right information from your observability platform to understand the behavior of your stack is fundamental for solving problems. With our StackState Observability Platform v5.1 release, StackState takes a big step forward to provide you even more information that is crucial for making decisions and for finding the root cause of an issue faster.

StackState’s new 4T Monitors introduce the ability to monitor IT topology as it changes over time. Now your observability processes can trigger alerts on changes in topology that don’t match an ideal state, on deviations in metrics and events and on complex combinations of parameters. Monitoring topology as part of your observability efforts enriches the concept of environment health by adding the dimension of topology.

StackState is an out-of-the-box solution to observe your entire Kubernetes stack, identify problems, automatically highlight the changes that cause them and provide the full context you need for efficient and effective troubleshooting. Our clear and affordable pricing makes it easy to get started today.

Companies today are relying on technology more than ever thanks to widespread digital transformation and cloud initiatives. And this is increasing the need for safe, efficient and reliable IT environments. But maintaining operational IT stability is very difficult when considering the complex and dynamic nature of today’s IT environments. In fact, IT environments are constantly changing, with new network devices, users and software versions coming into existence.

Monitoring is an integral part of most organizations. The monitoring process usually consists of several tools that, combined, show you information about whatever you're monitoring - applications, infrastructure, networks and so forth. While monitoring may seem like an obvious practice to some, it can be challenging to establish the best monitoring strategy for your organization.
