## 摘要
> ## Cloud Monitoring Using OBM Implementation
The session covers the implementation of cloud monitoring using Microfocus's Operations Bridge Manager (OBM), a solution designed to address gaps in existing monitoring systems like Sitescope, especially with the increasing shift towards public cloud environments. OBM offers a dynamic monitoring solution for AWS core services, enhanced security, and improved dynamic capabilities compared to Sitescope.
The current architecture involves data collection from various sources (infrastructure, servers, applications, hardware, and networks) using data collectors like Sitescope, HPCM, and norm, feeding into regional OBMs. These regional OBMs then send data to a global OBM, which acts as a manager of managers. The global OBM integrates with smacks, enabling the OSE team to escalate and create tickets for events. A new regional OBM setup is planned for AWS cloud monitoring in a lab landing zone environment in Frankfurt. The OBM account will be part of the digital factory landing zone, interacting with core accounts like shared, logs, and security accounts. The regional OBM collects data from different AWS accounts through an operation agent and CloudWatch API, forwarding it to the on-premise global OBM.
The architecture includes an OBM AWS account with an OBM application, a Postgres RDS database, and a separate instance with an operation agent. The operation agent collects data using OBM management packs, specifically the AWS management pack, which instructs the agent to gather data from different accounts. *The agent uses role-based access to collect data from CloudWatch API, eliminating the need to install servers in customer accounts and share sensitive access keys.* The management pack solution uses policies to define monitoring intervals, specific metrics, and data collection from specific accounts, matching data against thresholds to trigger events. *Whenever new instances are added, policies are automatically deployed, and monitoring begins, offering dynamic monitoring capabilities.*
For onboarding new customers, an IAM role with CloudWatch read-only access needs to be created, and the AWS account where the OBM and operation agent reside must be added to the trust relationship tab. The role ARN is then added as a policy in the OBM account's IAM role, attached to the agent node. The process involves specifying the role ARN, account ID, namespaces/services to be monitored, metrics, thresholds, monitoring frequency, and title format. The title format is enriched to provide useful information for the service center team, facilitating escalation and runbook execution. CloudWatch custom metrics can be used for metrics not exposed by default. The OBM management pack solution can monitor any public cloud vendor (Amazon, Azure, Google Cloud) and any AWS service with data exposed to CloudWatch metrics, using both metrics and logs. The solution is dynamic and customizable, with all data collected from the OBM account without requiring any installations in customer accounts.
