Blog 6 of 6: When IT transparency becomes the basis of value creation
Modern companies operate through processesthat run either sequentially or in parallel . Each of these process steps depends on the reliability of the IT systems .
But this is often where the problem lies: the interface between technology and business processes often remains invisible. This is precisely where business observability in.
Application Cockpits – A limited view
Many software manufacturers are trying to close this gap – mostly via dashboards that aggregate and visualize process steps .
The problem:
- Limited transparency: Often only part of the value chain is visible.
- High in-house development costs: Individual solutions are expensive and require a lot of maintenance.
The future: Simple & effective with business observability
Modern observability tools go beyond classic dashboards: they combine technical monitoring with a business perspective.
Key factors:
- Automatic integration: Data from log files, HTTP traffic and REST APIs flow directly into the business perspective .
- Defined business events: Relevant technical events are identified as business events and linked to business processes.
- Continuous monitoring: Ongoing analysis of dependencies and effects.
- System-independent analysis: Transparency across the entire value chain, regardless of the underlying IT system.
In addition to providing a comprehensive technical overview, this leads to valuable insights into your business processes – all with minimal effort.
