As we all know, the on-demand capacity mode of DynamoDB is great but can be cost-prohibitive in some cases (up to seven times more expensive than the Provisioned Capacity mode). The Provisioned mode, on the other hand, shifts to the development team the burden of predicting what level of capacity will be required by the application. And it’s not quite as straightforward to achieve the same level of scalability in the Provisioned mode as we enjoy in the On-demand one.
Microsoft Azure customers worldwide now gain access to HackerBay’s Fyipe to take advantage of the scalability, reliability, and agility of Azure to drive application development and shape business strategies.

At Google Cloud, one of the ways we help you do that is through a family of tools we call Recommenders, which leverage analytics and machine learning to automatically detect issues and present you with optimizations that you can act on.
The traditional method of planning server, network, and storage capacity is to look at the usage peaks and then add a safety margin. Most cloud hosting is planned this way. The idea that you only pay for what you use is not based on actual usage, rather on the capacities you initially specify. Most cloud migrations involve a ‘lift and shift’ approach of moving an application to a different host with minimal maintenance.
Google Cloud Platform (GCP), a suite of cloud computing services offered by Google, launched in 2008. It is a powerful cloud platform that offers Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service, and serverless computing environments. Many companies are now using GCP to build, modernize, and scale their businesses. GCP monitoring with Applications Manager Monitoring GCP service instances can be pretty challenging.
In Part 1 of this series, we compared the Azure portal vs. SquaredUp in terms of how easy it is to make a VM-level dashboard and how good that dashboard is in terms of features and functionality. In this one, we will compare the two portals in terms of application-level dashboards.
