How WatchMyDC® Automation Platform Works?
WatchMyDC® automation platform is a software that follows a simple ‘Integrate & Listen > Analyze > Act’ phenomenon.
WatchMyDC® sits between all legacy and modern infrastructure and applications. Thereafter it keeps listening and analyzing all activity logs including alerts, incidents, support request, etc. Any actionable event is taken into account to kick off an instant task.

Under the Hood
WatchMyDC® automation platform provides three major services during operations – an integration service, an automation service, and an observability service. All these three services are bonded to deliver a full-stack customer experience.
An Integration Service
Which enables organizations to associate their existing deployed various IT applications and infrastructure. For example, management and monitoring tools, ITSM, chatbot, APIs, network elements, systems, etc.
It provides a platform that ingests logs (events, incidents, activity, requests, tickets, etc) in an ElasticSearch-powered database from a variety of sources in a customer environment. WatchMyDC® supports open standard methods like authenticated webhook and Syslog. The platform analyzes each log during arrival, extracts necessary data if necessary, and notifies the automation service for any actionable event.
An Automation Service
While the integration service analyzes logs and identifies the actionable events, the automation service initiates a workflow on target systems or applications.
WatchMyDC® uses two separate automation service engines. The native API-Executor is used for application automation, while the Ansible is used for infrastructure automation. The coordination of multiple workloads inside a single job is made simpler by the Workflow Designer.
An Observability Service
WatchMyDC® also provides a cloud-native agent-less network monitoring solution (NMS) for on-premise, on-cloud and hybrid systems & networks. The solution currently integrates with AWS for service discovery and monitoring via AWS CloudWatch. Customers get a single dashboard for monitoring All of IT.
Enterprise customers with the need for multisite network monitoring can utilize this convenient solution to navigate between multiple sites and networks just with a few clicks.
