Do your cron jobs (aka scheduled jobs) ever fail or not run as expected? Scheduled jobs are supposed to be predictable – as the name implies. But as with many things, predictable!= reliable. Cron jobs fail too and we think you should know when that happens, Crons allows you to monitor the uptime and performance of any scheduled, recurring job in Sentry. Once set up, you’ll get alerts and metrics to help you solve errors, detect timeouts, and prevent disruptions to your service.
As your environment changes, new trends can quickly make your existing monitoring less accurate. At the same time, building alerts after every new incident can turn a straightforward strategy into a convoluted one. Treating monitoring as a one-time or reactive effort can both result in alert fatigue.

And because errors often have downstream effects, it may not be obvious what caused an outage, resulting in prolonged downtime that affects revenue-generating business services, results in service level agreement (SLA) penalties, and causes a loss of customer trust. And those costs add up quickly. Gartner figures the meter for an average downtime event runs at $5,600 per minute.
Bandwidth monitoring provides IT administrators with the assurance that the network has sufficient capacity to run business-critical applications. In addition, network ops team have end-to-end visibility to identify network hogs that cause the congestion. Typically, when a single component overloads in any network, it can bring the entire operation to its knees and impact the employee digital experience.
