How to Manage App Uptime Like a Boss

By: Morpheus Data

Find out how you can more easily manage your app’s uptime.

 

Keeping your apps up and running with a good uptime rate can be a tedious task of monitoring servers, logs, databases, and more. If an incident does occur, you have to go through piece by piece to find out where the problem is – and then work on fixing it. All of this can take precious time away from you and your staff, and increases the amount of time your app is unavailable to users while you find and fix the issue. For example, billions are being spent on election campaigns this year. If something goes down in one of these campaigns, the results can be catastrophic — the results could mean the difference between sitting in the white house and watching from home. 

$4.4 billion is expected to be spent on election campaigns this year. That means managing uptime is a matter of watching from the white house or watching from home.

Save Time with PaaS

A Platform as a Service (PaaS) can help you organize and streamline your app management, making it far easier for you and your staff to meet uptime requirements and demands. A good example of this is the Morpheus service, which makes locating and reporting on issues quick and simple.
