What is Self-healing?

Self-healing is one of the newest developments to come from Cloud Elemental’s innovation process. Essentially an automated alerting and recovery system, self-healing reduces the need for manual intervention during service disruption.

There is a period of delay, and a small margin of error, with the traditional system of flagging cloud-based issues. Typically, an issue would have to be recognised manually via alerts and issues manually resolved. The pockets of time between ticket submission, problem identification, and issue resolution can allow damage to continue and potentially worsen, causing bigger issues for the company. Self-healing was developed as a response to this problem.

But just how can this automated self-healing process benefit you and your business? Read on for a run-down on 3 positive impacts that this innovative process can offer.

Benefits of implementing self-healing

1)??? Peace of mind

Self-healing’s inherent automation provides clients with a sense of security and peace of mind that their application is running smoothly and solving errors automatically. The self-healing process ensures that issues of all priorities are flagged and actioned immediately, which means that damage control can begin before the issue worsens. This improves the reliability and resilience of the system, reducing the risk of service downtime, therefore putting clients at ease.

2)?? Minimal disruption

Self-healing is less disruptive than traditional trial-and-error methods because it pinpoints errors automatically, without the need for human intervention. Clients no longer need to worry about delegating the repair to another employee or third party. Service disruption is kept to a minimum and efficiency is enhanced, as the system doesn’t need to wait for a human to receive, acknowledge, and rectify the issue.?

3)?? Improved productivity

As mentioned previously, the automated nature of self-healing allows for a reduction in human intervention. The failure detection and responsive workflows brought about by self-healing will allow your team to waste less time troubleshooting service fixes, ultimately improving productivity, and allowing your business more freedom to work on delivering your key services.
