SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 08/22/13 — , a leading provider of cloud-based services for , is now monitoring the IT infrastructure at , a provider of data-driven social marketing software and services. Dachis Group relies entirely on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to host its revenue-generating applications serving major-brand customers, including LIVESTRONG, AT&T, New York Life, Disney, Nestlé, Estée Lauder and Nokia.
Dachis Group desired deeper insight into its AWS infrastructure to optimize performance of its business applications.

“The network is the most important constrained resource in the cloud, so it-s very important to monitor that,” says Huddleston. “When diagnosing issues across that many nodes, and in particular server spikes, we need to determine if we are maxing out the pipe or if the input to that problem node is getting starved farther upstream. It-s incredibly complicated and without Boundary, it would be really hard to deliver a world-class, big data social analytics solution.”
“We are excited to work closely with Boundary to help enterprise customers like Dachis Group optimize their use of AWS, providing an improved user experience and additional IT cost savings,” said Terry Wise, Director, Worldwide Partner Ecosystem, AWS.
