InfoScale agents for monitoring resources in cloud environments

InfoScale provides agents to identify the various resources that are used by applications in cloud environments. The agents monitor and manage the resource states to provide HA and DR for the configured applications.

Table: InfoScale agents for AWS

Name

Purpose

AWSIP

Manages the private IP, elastic IP, and overlay IP resources in AWS.

AWSRoute53

Updates and monitors the host name to IP address mapping with the Amazon Route 53 DNS web service.

EBSVol

Attaches and detaches EBS volumes to and from Amazon EC2 instances, and monitors their state when attached to an instance.

Table: InfoScale agents for Azure

Name

Purpose

AzureIP

Manages the private IP, public IP, and overlay IP resources in Azure.

AzureDNSZone

Provides DNS-based traffic routing and failover:

  • Monitors and updates the host name to resource record mapping.

  • Performs the mapping for the Azure DNS domain during failover of nodes across subnets or regions.

AzureDisk

Attaches managed and unmanaged data disks to an Azure VM of the same or of a different resource group, monitors their state, and detaches them.

Table: InfoScale agents for GCP

Name

Purpose

GoogleIP

Manages the private IP and the overlay IP resources in GCP.

GoogleDisk

Attaches persistent disks to an GCP VM instance of the same or of a different resource group, monitors their state, and detaches them.
