The solution, powered by Cisco Full-Stack Observability, moves beyond traditional domain monitoring with a fully integrated approach to application performance, digital experiences, resource optimisation, multicloud infrastructure, and network and application security. With 360 Observability, teams can proactively identify, prioritise, and resolve the most important issues that could impact the user experience and the overall business.

360 Observability has two key components: an Observability Maturity Assessment and Multicloud Application Monitoring. The Observability Maturity Assessment provides the expertise and knowledge needed to improve performance management and operational maturity, allowing teams to align to business and IT goals and objectives.

Key features of 360 Observability include application and infrastructure health checks, customisable monitoring dashboards, intelligent alerts and reports, and fault isolation and acceleration capabilities. With year-round proactive application monitoring, businesses can gain real-time, comprehensive visibility into the full stack of available data, while observability assessments optimise costs and performance, thus maximising digital business revenue, promoting proactive issue identification at the root, and empowering rapid remediation.
