October Product Power Hour: App Visibility with ITOps
Overview
October’s Product Power Hour took us deep into Application Visibility for ITOps, featuring a hands-on demo of Dynamic Service Insights (DSI) and LM Uptime, the latest innovations designed to simplify service mapping and amplify visibility across complex hybrid environments.
The session delivered live demos, customer-driven discussions, and expert insights into how LogicMonitor can dynamically model your business services, link application layers, and accelerate root cause analysis. Attendees walked away ready to bring clarity and efficiency to their service monitoring strategy.
Key Highlights
⭐ Dynamic Service Insights in Action: See how DSI automatically builds services from custom properties, saving time and ensuring continuous accuracy.
⭐ End-to-End Service Modeling: Discover how to link technologies like F5, web servers, app tiers, and databases for true end-to-end visibility.
⭐ Contextual Alerting & Visualization: Learn how aggregated, service-level alerts minimize noise while improving MTTR.
⭐ ITSM Alignment: DSI supports immutable IDs and friendly names, making it easy to sync with your ITSM workflows.
⭐ Community Excitement: Customers shared real-world use cases and early wins, from reducing manual setup to improving collaboration across teams.
Q&A
Q: How does DSI reduce complexity in service setup?
A: DSI dynamically builds and updates services based on defined properties. There is no need for manual service configuration as your environment changes.
Q: Can I model complete end-to-end services (for example, F5 → web → app → database)?
A: Yes. You can create linked service definitions that connect all these components for full-stack visibility. Best practices include defining relationships at each layer using consistent naming conventions and grouping resources under business-critical services for faster troubleshooting.
Q: How can Dynamic Service Insights help correlate low MOS call scores with specific network devices causing jitter, latency, or packet loss? Can this mapping be automated?
A: DSI enables correlation across network and application layers by mapping related metrics to shared service properties. This allows you to associate low-quality voice or collaboration data (such as MOS scores) with the underlying network devices introducing packet loss or latency, providing actionable insights and automated context.
Q: Can alerts roll up to the service level instead of flooding my inbox with device alerts?
A: Yes. DSI surfaces a single contextual alert that aggregates underlying data, giving you clarity and less noise.
Q: How can I align LogicMonitor services with my ITSM system?
A: Use immutable service IDs alongside friendly names. They can coexist to improve reporting and maintain ITSM alignment.
