OCI Observability & Management

Know what failed, where, and what it means for the business.

OCI Logging, Logging Analytics, Monitoring, Application Performance Monitoring and Service Connector Hub, applied across OIC, OCI workloads and Fusion so one dashboard tells the truth about the whole estate.

One observability plane
  1. Telemetry sources

    • OIC
    • Functions / API Gateway
    • Autonomous DB
    • Fusion audit & ESS
    • On-prem agents
  2. Collect & analyse

    OCI Logging · Logging Analytics · Monitoring · APM

    Parsed, enriched, business identifiers preserved

  3. Route

    • Service Connector Hub
    • Notifications
    • SIEM
  4. Consume

    • Operations dashboard
    • Business dashboard
    • On-call & runbooks

Overview

Observability, done properly.

Oracle estates generate enormous amounts of telemetry and very little insight. OIC has its own tracking. Functions log to one place, databases to another, Fusion audit and diagnostics somewhere else. When the month-end bank file fails, three teams look at three consoles. AMTEX builds the observability layer that brings it together and translates it into business terms.

What we deliver

Capabilities

Everything AMTEX builds, configures and runs across Observability.

  • OCI Logging

    Service, audit and custom logs collected consistently, with retention policies and access controls.

  • Logging Analytics

    Parsed, enriched and searchable logs across OIC, Functions, databases, load balancers and on-prem agents, with saved searches for known failure modes.

  • Monitoring & alarms

    Metrics, custom metrics from integrations, alarm thresholds tied to business SLAs, routed through Notifications to the right team.

  • Application Performance Monitoring

    Traces across API Gateway, Functions and custom apps; synthetic checks on the endpoints the business depends on.

  • Service Connector Hub

    Logs and metrics moved to Object Storage, Streaming or a SIEM without custom code.

  • OIC observability

    Tracking variables, instance metrics, error digests and a daily health summary designed for support analysts.

  • Fusion diagnostics & audit

    Audit policies, ESS job monitoring, integration error reports and quarterly update readiness signals surfaced alongside OCI telemetry.

  • Dashboards for two audiences

    An operations view for engineers and a business view for finance and supply chain: what is late, what failed, what it affects.

  • Cost visibility

    Tagging standards, budgets, cost analysis and alerts so the OCI bill is explainable per workload.

  • SIEM & security integration

    Audit logs and Cloud Guard findings forwarded to Splunk, Sentinel or your SIEM of record.

The hard parts

Where these projects become difficult

The places programmes slip, and what we do about each one.

  1. 01

    Alert fatigue

    The problem

    Hundreds of alarms nobody reads, and the one that mattered was among them.

    How AMTEX approaches it

    Alerts defined from business SLAs, aggregated into digests, routed to named owners, and pruned quarterly.

  2. 02

    Logs without meaning

    The problem

    Terabytes of logs and no way to answer 'which invoices were affected'.

    How AMTEX approaches it

    Business identifiers carried in every log line and tracking variable; Logging Analytics parsers built around them.

  3. 03

    Nobody owns the dashboard

    The problem

    A dashboard built during go-live that nobody has opened since.

    How AMTEX approaches it

    Dashboards owned by the support runbook, reviewed in the monthly service review, retired when unused.

How we work

From first conversation to steady state

  1. 01

    Inventory

    Every log source, metric and current alert; every failure of the last quarter.

  2. 02

    Design

    Business SLAs, owner routing, dashboards per audience, retention.

  3. 03

    Build

    Collection, parsers, alarms, dashboards, SIEM forwarding, in Terraform.

  4. 04

    Operate

    Monthly review of alerts and incidents; continuous pruning and tuning.
