Adobe Campaign Cloud Services

About Adobe Campaign Cloud Services

Adobe Campaign Cloud Services provides mission-critical support for the most demanding customer experience delivery needs. Adobe Campaign Cloud Services provide flexible cloud infrastructure that enables organizations to launch, monitor and optimize customer experiences without the need to manage and operate Adobe Campaign

Why We Monitor

Adobe monitors your Adobe Campaign Cloud Services environments to help manage various issues and minimize disruptions by detecting technical issues and providing continuous feedback about specific problems, ongoing performance and projects in development.

What We Monitor and How We Respond

Built on a multi-cloud strategy, Adobe Campaign Cloud Services’ enterprise-grade physical, network, and data security provides a, secure, high-performance environment for an enterprise IT infrastructure, helping organizations reduce overall operating costs and risk of downtime with our monitoring capabilities.

Adobe monitors all critical network equipment on the Adobe Campaign network 24/7 and receives notifications from various monitoring systems when there are necessary fixes or escalated issues to notify the appropriate Adobe personnel.

Note that some monitoring actions performed by Adobe will show up in Campaign logs under the "campaign-loginmonitor" user.

Adobe is committed in its efforts to ensure customers are successful. Upon detecting the issue, system uses auto-restart and auto launch mechanisms to attempt remediating such issues. In event the system does not self-remedy an issue, Adobe On-Call engineering intervenes to perform troubleshooting activities to restore service per pre-defined alert runbooks (a set of standardized technical instructions to restore service).

In addition to monitoring capabilities described below which are primarily used by Adobe On-Call engineering, there is a set of monitoring capabilities that are available to customers, and accessible via Campaign Classic, Campaign Standard or the Campaign Control Panel. With Control Panel, customers can subscribe to real-time alerts about their instances that will notify them about identified incidents that might be affecting Campaign performance and recommended remediation steps (e.g., SSL certificates nearing an expiry).

*Adobe Campaign does not currently expose all monitoring data used by On-Call engineering to customers.
