Reactive monitoring vs. proactive prevention
SNMP-based monitoring and observability tools are fundamentally reactive. They only understand lagging indicators of risk or underperformance (i.e. events that have already happened).
Infrastructure Assurance is proactive, not reactive. It continuously listens for leading indicators of risk or underperformance (i.e. events that haven’t happened yet) and recommends preventive actions. You can even configure CLI commands and API queries to auto-triage issues.
