Accurate Data Is Mandatory Before Extending Server Lifespan.

Armed with accurate data, extending server lifespans can provide significant benefits as AWS recently demonstrated, expecting an extra $900m per quarter. However, haphazardly extending lifespans without sufficient data is a potentially costly and dangerous game. Holistic observability is crucial for the acquisition of this data, with the number and size of blind spots corresponding to the level of risk. In this insight, we review:

1. The Challenge of Market Data Capacity Management.
2. Is Extending Server Lifespans Safe?
3. Enhancing Observability, Holistically.
