AzureWatch: Support for Auto-Reboot/Reimage of instances and additional alert options

17. May 2013 12:44 by author Igor Papirov

New Features:

  • Major: In addition to scaling up or down, AzureWatch can now reboot or reimage instances via its advanced aggregation and rule-evaluation engine.  This is useful for resource-leaking servers.
  • Major: AzureWatch can now send alerts based on rules that execute on a single-server level (instead of aggregating all the data for a Role).
  • Moderate: AzureWatch now supports sending alerts to multiple mailboxes.  Furthermore, users can customize each rule and forward alerts from a particular rule to additional set of mailboxes.
