Resource Management Guide on the Elven Platform

The Elven Platform is designed to offer maximum flexibility and control over your assets, prioritizing an intuitive and efficient experience. To achieve this, it uses an intelligent taxonomy (grouping mechanism) that allows monitored resources to be organized or grouped in a clear, efficient, and decoupled manner.

Grouping and Flexibility

In the Elven Platform, you can choose to structure your resources (assets) with the support of two main centers:

• Product Center: Allows you to create and manage products, which can group one or more applications.

• Application Center: Focused on managing individual applications, which in turn may contain various resources to be monitored.

This hierarchical approach provides a clear and centralized view for organizations that prefer to structure their resources logically, making navigation and monitoring easier.

Modularity and Decoupling

Despite the suggested structure, the Elven Platform is fully modular and allows you to work in a completely decoupled and independent manner. This means that:

• You are not required to use grouping by products or applications.

• It is possible to create monitoring resources or integrations independently, using Resource Center or Services Hub, without relying on the existence of a product or application.

This flexibility serves different types of users: from teams that need a complex organization to those who prefer a simple and agile approach. Everything has been designed to provide a clear, organized, and intuitive view, making it easier to manage and monitor your assets efficiently.

Benefits of the Approach

• Customization: Choose the structure that best fits your operations.

• Efficiency: Grouped resources enable centralized and optimized monitoring.

• Freedom: Work with decoupled resources when needed, ensuring agility and focus.

With this combination of structure and freedom, the Elven Platform ensures you have full control over how to monitor and manage your assets, always prioritizing an experience that adapts to your workflow.

Glossary of Technical Terms

Taxonomy: Intelligent grouping mechanism used in the Elven Platform to organize resources in a logical, clear, and decoupled way, making navigation and monitoring easier.

Assets (resources): All elements monitored within the Elven Platform, including servers, databases, applications, network services, queues, and caches. They represent essential resources for operations and can be organized individually or grouped into applications and products, facilitating management, analysis, and monitoring.

Product Center: Center dedicated to the creation and management of products, allowing one or more applications to be grouped in an organized and hierarchical structure.

Application Center: Area dedicated to the individual management of applications, allowing configuration, monitoring, and association of resources linked to those applications.

Resource Center: Modular tool that enables the creation and management of monitoring resources independently, without relying on a product or application.

Services Hub: Section that centralizes all monitoring resources and integrations with services connected to the Elven Platform.

Resource Grouping: Hierarchical structure that allows monitored resources to be organized into products and applications, promoting a centralized and logical view of operations.

Modularity: The Elven Platform’s ability to operate independently, allowing the creation and management of resources or services without the need to link them to products or applications.

Decoupling: Capability that offers flexibility by allowing management and monitoring to be performed independently, without following a fixed hierarchical structure.
