Análise das máquinas virtuais utilizando a ferramenta centreon na empresa teresinense de processamento de dados - PRODATER

Abstract

Cloud Computing is a technology that allows on-demand access to computing resources and services (storage, data processing, software), anytime and anywhere. This eliminates the need for local investments in hardware and software, offering scalability, agility and reduced operating costs. The growing adoption of cloud computing and the increase in IT infrastructure in companies require continuous monitoring of networks to ensure availability, predict outages and optimize performance. Centreon is a robust monitoring tool that allows detailed monitoring of network assets and servers, collecting essential metrics such as CPU, memory and disk usage. A case study at PRODATER (Teresina Data Processing Company) used Centreon to analyze virtual machines. Initially, the tool did not have widgets configured for monitoring, which was adjusted to allow analysis of CPU and memory consumption. Tests on machines demonstrated the effectiveness of Centreon in visualizing resource usage. Visualization via dashboards speeds up analysis of infrastructure performance. An inventory of all virtual machines available in the company was created, using the resources available in Centreon and the inventory data, 28 oversized and 3 undersized machines were found. A total of 31 of the 147 machines (approximately 21.09%).
