Stackdriver<\/a>, the Boston startup that wants to bring grown-up monitoring to IT running across public clouds, opened up a public beta of that service on Tuesday. The goal of the Stackdriver Intelligent Monitoring service\u00a0is to let companies know if there’s a hot spot or a bottleneck that could spell trouble, said Stackdriver co-founder Dan Belcher. “We work in real-time to identify issues quickly before they become a real problem,” Belcher said.<\/p>\n

The company said the service, which supports Amazon Web Services and\u00a0Rackspace Cloud,\u00a0already manages nearly 100,000 cloud resources and processes more than 125 million datapoints daily. Beta customers include Edmodo, Yellowhammer, Exablox, Atomwise and Webkite, according to a press release <\/a>announcing the beta.<\/p>\n

Co-founded by VMware veterans Belcher and Izzy Azeri<\/a>, Stackdriver got $5 million in Series A funding\u00a0<\/a>from Bain Capital and others last August to pursue its plan put eyes on cloud workloads.<\/p>\n

Early competitors include Datadog<\/a> and Boundary<\/a>\u00a0but old line network management vendors like IBM Tivoli; BMC and CA Technologies are also in the mix. As more business workloads flow to cloud infrastructure, the need for reliable, real-time tools to monitor performance and flag trouble spots will play a critical role.<\/p>\n
