Stay ahead of issues across compute, networking, storage, and database layers in Alibaba Cloud with OpManager Nexus. Monitor Elastic Container Service (ECS), load balancers, Relational Database Service (RDS), Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), and 40+ services in one place to quickly identify root causes of issues and reduce downtime.
Alibaba Cloud environments grow fast—meaning more services, more dependencies, more places for things to go wrong. When an ECS instance starts struggling, the impact can show up in your Network Load Balancer (NLB), your RDS query times, or your PolarDB clusters before anyone connects the dots. OpManager Nexus gives you the cross-layer context to find the source, not just the symptom.
OpManager Nexus maps your Alibaba Cloud environment from the moment resources come online. No agents, no manual discovery, just immediate visibility across every service layer from one console. It automatically discovers resources and delivers immediate visibility from one console.
Alibaba Cloud incidents rarely stay within a single service boundary. A database slowdown becomes a load balancer timeout that leads to an application failure. OpManager Nexus applies AI-powered analysis to connect these events and surface the root cause before the blast radius grows.
With 40+ services running across compute, networking, and databases, resource sprawl is a real cost driver on Alibaba Cloud. OpManager Nexus gives teams the utilization context to make smarter allocation decisions, not just alert on thresholds.
Alibaba Cloud observability is the practice of understanding Alibaba Cloud infrastructure behavior by collecting and analyzing metrics, events, and availability signals from ECS instances, load balancers, RDS databases, VPC, and platform services such as Kafka, PolarDB, ApsaraDB, MongoDB, and more.
Native Alibaba Cloud monitoring offers service-level visibility. OpManager Nexus extends this with cross-layer correlation across compute, networking, and databases, hybrid observability across on-premises and multi-cloud environments, and ITSM-driven incident workflows, all from a single console.
OpManager Nexus collects telemetry using API-based integration with Alibaba Cloud services, primarily through CloudMonitor, without requiring agents. It pulls metrics, availability signals, and resource events across ECS instances, load balancers, VPC, and managed services.
Key signals include CPU usage, memory utilization, disk I/O, network throughput, NLB and ALB request rates, RDS query performance, and Kafka consumer lag, giving you the context needed to detect and troubleshoot issues faster.
OpManager Nexus uses agentless, API-based integration to collect metrics from Alibaba Cloud, primarily through CloudMonitor and service APIs. It securely pulls performance data, availability signals, and resource events across services without requiring any in-instance agents, making deployment fast and low overhead.
Yes, OpManager Nexus can monitor Alibaba Cloud resources deployed in China regions, provided the appropriate regional endpoints and credentials are configured. This ensures enterprises with mainland China deployments can maintain visibility while aligning with Alibaba Cloud’s regional access requirements.
Connect OpManager Nexus to your Alibaba Cloud account. Once connected, OpManager Nexus automatically discovers your ECS instances, load balancers, VPC, RDS databases, Kafka topics, and managed services and begins collecting metrics.
Yes. OpManager Nexus observes Alibaba Cloud alongside on-premises infrastructure and other cloud providers, giving teams a single view across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
