The concerted effort of maintaining application resilience

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/the-concerted-effort-of-maintaining-application-resilience/

The concerted effort of maintaining application resilience

Back when most business applications were monolithic, ensuring their resilience was by no means easy. But given the way apps run in 2025 and what’s expected of them, maintaining monolithic apps was arguably simpler.

Back then, IT staff had a finite set of criteria on which to improve an application’s resilience, and the rate of change to the application and its infrastructure was a great deal slower. Today, the demands we place on apps are different, more numerous, and subject to a faster rate of change.

There are also just more applications. According to IDC, there are likely to be a billion more in production by 2028 – and many of these will be running on cloud-native code and mixed infrastructure. With technological complexity and higher service expectations of responsiveness and quality, ensuring resilience has grown into being a massively more complex ask.

Multi-dimensional elements determine app resilience, dimensions that fall into different areas of responsibility in the modern enterprise: Code quality falls to development teams; infrastructure might be down to systems administrators or DevOps; compliance and data governance officers have their own needs and stipulations, as do cybersecurity professionals, storage engineers, database administrators, and a dozen more besides.

With multiple tools designed to ensure the resilience of an app – with definitions of what constitutes resilience depending on who’s asking – it’s small wonder that there are typically dozens of tools that work to improve and maintain resilience in play at any one time in the modern enterprise.

Determining resilience across the whole enterprise’s portfolio, therefore, is near-impossible. Monitoring software is silo-ed, and there’s no single pane of reference.

IBM’s Concert Resilience Posture simplifies the complexities of multiple dashboards, normalizes the different quality judgments, breaks down data from different silos, and unifies the disparate purposes of monitoring and remediation tools in play.

Speaking ahead of TechEx North America (4-5 June, Santa Clara Convention Center), Jennifer Fitzgerald, Product Management Director, Observability, at IBM, took us through the Concert Resilience Posture solution, its aims, and its ethos. On the latter, she differentiates it from other tools:

“Everything we’re doing is grounded in applications – the health and performance of the applications and reducing risk factors for the application.”

The app-centric approach means the bringing together of the different metrics in the context of desired business outcomes, answering questions that matter to an organization’s stakeholders, like:

Will every application scale?

What effects have code changes had?

Are we over- or under-resourcing any element of any application?

Is infrastructure supporting or hindering application deployment?

Are we safe and in line with data governance policies?

What experience are we giving our customers?

Jennifer says IBM Concert Resilience Posture is, “a new way to think about resilience – to move it from a manual stitching [of other tools] or a ton of different dashboards.” Although the definition of resilience can be ephemeral, according to which criteria are in play, Jennifer says it’s comprised, at its core, of eight non-functional requirements (NFRs):

Observability

Availability

Maintainability

Recoverability

Scalability

Usability

Integrity

Security

NFRs are important everywhere in the organization, and there are perhaps only two or three that are the sole remit of one department – security falls to the CISO, for example. But ensuring the best quality of resilience in all of the above is critically important right across the enterprise. It’s a shared responsibility for maintaining excellence in performance, potential, and safety.

What IBM Concert Resilience Posture gives organizations, different from what’s offered by a collection of disparate tools and beyond the single-pane-of-glass paradigm, is proactivity. Proactive resilience comes from its ability to give a resilience score, based on multiple metrics, with a score determined by the many dozens of data points in each NFR. Companies can see their overall or per-app scores drift as changes are made – to the infrastructure, to code, to the portfolio of applications in production, and so on.

“The thought around resilience is that we as humans aren’t perfect. We’re going to make mistakes. But how do you come back? You want your applications to be fully, highly performant, always optimal, with the required uptime. But issues are going to happen. A code change is introduced that breaks something, or there’s more demand on a certain area that slows down performance. And so the application resilience we’re looking at is all around the ability of systems to withstand and recover quickly from disruptions, failures, spikes in demand, [and] unexpected events,” she says.

IBM’s acquisition history points to some of the complimentary elements of the Concert Resilience Posture solution – Instana for full-stack observability, Turbonomic for resource optimization, for example. But the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. There’s an AI-powered continuous assessment of all elements that make up an organization’s resilience, so there’s one place where decision-makers and IT teams can assess, manage, and configure the full-stack’s resilience profile.

The IBM portfolio of resilience-focused solutions helps teams see when and why loads change and therefore where resources are wasted. It’s possible to ensure that necessary resources are allocated only when needed, and systems automatically scale back when they’re not. That sort of business- and cost-centric capability is at the heart of app-centric resilience, and means that a company is always optimizing its resources.

Overarching all aspects of app performance and resilience is the element of cost. Throwing extra resources at an under-performing application (or its supporting infrastructure) isn’t a viable solution in most organizations. With IBM, organizations get the ability to scale and grow, to add or iterate apps safely, without necessarily having to invest in new provisioning, either in the cloud or on-premise. Plus, they can see how any changes impact resilience. It’s making best use of what’s available, and winning back capacity – all while getting the best performance, responsiveness, reliability, and uptime across the enterprise’s application portfolio.

Jennifer says, “There’s a lot of different things that can impact resilience and that’s why it’s been so difficult to measure. An application has so many different layers underneath, even in just its resources and how it’s built. But then there’s the spider web of downstream impacts. A code change could impact multiple apps, or it could impact one piece of an app. What is the downstream impact of something going wrong? And that’s a big piece of what our tools are helping organizations with.”

Creating alternate climate realities: big ideas come from small towns

“So many of us come together to mobilize, make waves, and share space- to feel some agency within a machine that has cogs in nearly every aspect of our day-to-day lives. Everyone looks to one another hoping for the right answer (and also hoping to make that answer first), aiming to deduce the best tactic, the elusive “silver bullet” to stop or at least slow down the crisis that fills us with anxiety. Underlying much of our movement is a fundamental survival mechanism that operates on “me” instead of “we”.

Far too much of our collective energy is directed toward a pursuit that leaves us mirroring capitalism, individualism, and that which we fight. Bringing in more people (and ultimately more dollars) seems to be the only acceptable theory of change. Money-the currency of individualism-hangs like a heavy cloud over campaigns calling for systemic change. It is undeniable we are all stuck in the clutches of capitalism and the fossil fuel economy, from the tiny collective to the global environmental NGO. Creating educational materials, conducting research, bringing lawsuits, etc.- it costs money. But there are millions of people who are waiting for direction on how to protect our shared home. These times are indeed urgent, as all of our messaging states. We can do far better to direct the energy of those already engaged into substantive change.”

Excerpt from Tara Houska’s essay, Sacred Resistance, in All We Can Save: Truth, Courage, and Solutions for the Climate Crisis. 

This excerpt tells the reader very clearly: community scale action must be prioritized. It is easy to get caught up in daily life, while trying to at least contribute your little grain of sand (“tu granito de arena”) to the sea of possible actions for mitigating the climate crisis, but that is exactly what our current system hopes for. This system hopes that the most we can do is to stop eating meat, stop single-use plastic, and buy from thrift stores. At the scale of the fossil fuel industry, this is less than significant, but let me be clear: this is not to say that people should take small-scale action, but that these individualized actions leave people satisfied, and so they don’t seek further, larger-scale action. I would love to say that we can change institutions from the inside, but if this is possible, this change will be slow. What we can do now is rely on each other and take these actions into our own hands. In cases when the local government clearly will not take action, I would like to see collective action solving these issues, as has occurred already in vulnerable communities across the globe. Casa Pueblo speaks of creating a new reality for Puerto Rican communities, a reality that doesn’t depend on the lack of reaction from the political leaders that the town leans on. A look into the future occurred after Hurricane María, as Casa Pueblo created a bubble of an alternate reality. This reality of solar-powered homes and businesses allowed the town of Adjuntas to have electricity throughout an island-wide blackout. Now, imagine this reality, but instead of within just a bubble, it has spread to the entire island. Small Island States (SIDS) would greatly benefit from the use of the wind, solar, and ocean resources, especially in the midst of climate disaster. These islands are often left without resources, such as electricity, food, and water, but if their natural resources are harnessed before, during, and in the aftermath of a hurricane, for example, the island community immediately doubles and even triples its resilience to these events. This is a reality that we’ve seen sampled, in smaller bite-sized realities, and it is time to expand beyond the current infrastructure. The people have the power to enact this change, but it won’t be easy.
