GroundWork announced improved Amazon Cloud support through GroundWork Cloud Hub Amazon Connector.

Available in the latest version of GroundWork Cloud Hub, this new connector is FREE up to 50 devices and is 36 percent cheaper compared to Amazon Cloud Watch.

GroundWork Cloud Hub is a Cloud monitoring solution that communicates with multiple public and private cloud platforms including OpenStack, Docker, VMware, KVM and RHEV-M. It runs as an independent application with the ability to operate on a separate machine from GroundWork Monitor for additional scalability and topological flexibility. Because Cloud Hub operates as an open standards-based, web services communication and open API, the new Cloud Hub Amazon Connector does not have to run on the Amazon Cloud.

“Hybrid clouds, using a combination of public clouds like Amazon plus a local private cloud, are becoming increasingly popular with GroundWork’s user base,” said David Dennis, VP of Marketing and Products for GroundWork. “Our updated Amazon Connector for Cloud Hub delivers hybrid cloud monitoring by providing expanded Amazon cloud metrics, at a reduced cost, while also monitoring your private cloud or other local data center devices.”

GroundWork Cloud Hub Amazon Connector enables users to:

- Access to over three-times as many Amazon metrics as provided by Cloud Watch

- Have unlimited custom metrics

- Have unlimited alarms

- More flexibility and better failure protection running outside or inside of Amazon

- Have unified monitoring of your on-premise IT with alongside your cloud

- Monitor application and OS for layers above the AWS instance

- Hybrid cloud Monitoring: monitor your OpenStack, Docker, VMware, KVM or other private cloud from the same point of view

- Integrate with ELK stack log analytics

- Assume Cloud Watch detailed monitoring, five custom metrics and five alarms
