How to Monitor Your Windows Infrastructure
Blog post from Sysdig
Sysdig's new Windows Prometheus Bundle offers a streamlined, all-in-one solution for monitoring Windows servers and virtual machines, whether in the cloud or on-premise. By simplifying the installation process, this bundle allows users to deploy a Microsoft Windows installer that includes a Prometheus agent and Windows exporter, which automatically pull and push metrics to Sysdig endpoints. This improved approach not only reduces installation friction by supporting both a user-friendly wizard or command-line interface for large-scale deployments but also enhances performance with a 30% memory improvement. The bundle provides enriched metrics with hostname and domain name labels for better context and installs as a service to ensure continuous operation. Users benefit from comprehensive visibility and control over their Windows infrastructure, alongside the capability to monitor hybrid cloud environments from a single interface.
