Learn how to monitor your cloud integration scenarios

[RobertKelly]

As customers transition their integration scenarios to the cloud and make use of the key capabilities of the SAP Integration Suite, there is a need to help customers to monitor their key integration scenarios that are deployed and running on their SAP Cloud Integration tenant. There are a number of ways to monitor the integration scenarios both within the tool and using an Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) application.

For the various methods, we have provided a set of recent and ongoing assets and services to help customers monitor their SAP Cloud Integration scenarios.

Firstly, within the tool itself there is an Operations View that allows the customer to monitor the integration scenarios and key settings configured for the SAP Cloud Integration tenant. For this we have recently released a Meet The Expert session to learn more about the monitoring capabilities for the SAP Cloud Integration service.

If you use SAP's on-premise ALM application SAP Solution Manager to monitor your SAP's cloud and on-premise systems, we have recently created a Meet The Expert session to learn about the benefits and integration monitoring capabilities for SAP Cloud Integration in SAP Solution Manager. In this session, there is information on the technical prerequisites required to monitor cloud integration scenarios in SAP Solution Manager. There is a focus on the advanced integration monitoring features in Focused Run for SAP Solution Manager.

To know more about how to configure SAP Solution Manager to use the integration monitoring and exception management tools to monitor both cloud and hybrid integration scenarios, there is an Expert-guided Implementation (EGI) service available to help customers monitor the health of your cloud and hybrid landscape integrations. Please note that both SAP Cloud Integration and Process Orchestration are the integration platforms in scope for the service. You can click here to register for the  EGI service Integration Monitoring and Exception Management for Cloud and Hybrid Landscapes.

As customers move to the cloud, there is a need to be able to monitor your integration scenarios through a cloud based ALM solution. SAP Cloud ALM is our application lifecycle management offering for cloud-centric customers. It provides extensive implementation and operations capabilities for cloud solutions and hybrid (on-premise) solutions, it is ready for immediate consumption and its fair usage rights are included with SAP Enterprise Support.

In this SAP Cloud ALM: Onboarding Tutorial, we show customers how to request your own SAP Cloud ALM tenant, perform the initial steps and connect it to the systems in their landscape so to benefit from its functionalities including for Integration Monitoring immediately.

Using the various monitoring options, if customers find issues in their integration scenarios, it is possible to avail of the Continuous Quality Check Interface Management (CQC IFM) service. The service helps customers to optimize the return on their investment in SAP applications by investigation and analysis of specific interfaces. The service helps to minimize potential risks during critical go-lives as well as during the operations phase of your solution and to increase technical stability, performance, throughput, and maintainability of your solution.  Please see the info sheet to see which integration scenarios is in scope for the service at present and here we advise which integration scenarios are in pilot at present also.
