The Old Way The Right(Scale) Way
1. Monitor Servers for IIS Process2. Detect Failure (Alert in RS)3. Execute Restart IIS Script
(Escalation in RS)
Didn’t Work?4. Escalation / Monitoring Detects
Continued Failure and Relaunches / Reconfigures Server Automatically
Automated Ops Scenario: IIS Fails on a Server

1. Send an API call to Execute Patch Script on all affected Servers
2. Notify your customers it’s done within seconds.3. Receive praise from them.4. PROFIT, thanks to less human capital overhead!
Manual Ops Scenario: Patching a 0-Day

To your customers and your managed service administrators, it doesn’t matter what region, cloud vendor or IaaS account those servers are in.
It only matters that they are affected and need to be patched ASAP.
