Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. There are many times we get asked why some cloud instance performed poorly for their database application and almost always turned out to be some configuration error.

What is workload in cloud computing? Simply put, it’s the set of computational tasks that cloud systems perform, such as hosting databases, enabling collaboration tools, or running compute-intensive algorithms. The environments, which were previously isolated, are now working seamlessly under central control.

Log monitoring, log analysis, and log analytics are more important than ever as organizations adopt more cloud-native technologies, containers, and microservices-based architectures. Driving this growth is the increasing adoption of hyperscale cloud providers (AWS, Azure, and GCP) and containerized microservices running on Kubernetes.
