Datadog, the SaaS-based monitoring and data analytics platform that provides a unified view of IT infrastructure, released today a troubleshooting guide for developers and system administrators using Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). In the new eBook, The Top 5 AWS EC2 Performance Problems, Datadogs technical team details the top five EC2 performance issues and provides instructions on how to detect and remediate these problems.

However, EC2 also introduces significant changes to coding, deployment and application maintenance which makes this infrastructure behave differently from traditional on-premise servers.

Datadogs new eBook provides AWS EC2 administrators with an understanding of how AWS functions and why this infrastructure performs differently from traditional on-premise servers. The eBook then dives into top five AWS EC2 performance issues to explain:

  • Why these performance issues occur
  • How to detect these problems
  • How to resolve and ultimately avoid the top five performance issues (when possible)
