We are happy to announce the release of the updated Enterprise Manager Monitoring Best Practices White Paper: Strategies for Scalable, Smarter Monitoring using Oracle Enterprise Manager 24ai.

Originally created for Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c, this white paper draws upon years of experience helping customers implement scalable monitoring solutions across a variety of large, complex environments. It was later updated for Enterprise Manager 13c, and has now been refreshed to reflect the latest capabilities of Enterprise Manager 24ai.

This comprehensive white paper offers actionable guidance and practical recommendations for planning and implementing scalable monitoring solutions. It is designed to help you take full advantage of key Enterprise Manager monitoring features—whether you are just getting started or looking to get even more value from your existing implementation.

If you are just getting started, you will learn how to:

  • Plan and organize monitoring with Administration Groups and Template Collections for consistent alert threshold management across environments
  • Configure Incident Rule Sets to automate incident creation and send notifications to the right teams and stakeholders
  • Manage access to targets and resources using privilege-propagating groups and roles, ensuring secure and streamlined operations

For experienced users, explore advanced capabilities such as:

  • Event Compression: Automatically correlate and compress related events into a smaller, more manageable set of incidents
  • Dynamic Runbooks: Capture subject matter expertise as executable steps for incident triage or prevention, accessible to all operators
  • Optimizing alert handling: Practical suggestions to reduce alert noise
  • Managing outages: Handle unreachable events from host outages or network issues effectively
  • Hands-on learning with EM LiveLabs: Explore these new capabilities in a live demo environment
