In this post, we will show you how to set up Redis monitoring with SigNoz - an open-source full-stack APM. SigNoz captures data using OpenTelemetry, which is becoming the world standard for instrumenting cloud-native applications. Apart from capturing metrics from your Redis server, you can also capture logs and traces with OpenTelemetry.

Cloud has become the de-facto standard for new application development. Kubernetes solves many problems of modern-day cloud infrastructure. It has made microservices-based distributed software systems possible, enabling organizations to provide on-demand scaling. But at the same time, Kubernetes has also increased operational complexity. In simple terms, Kubernetes is a container orchestration tool. Container environments are dynamic and ephemeral.

Browser instrumentation refers to collecting and analyzing data about a user's interactions with a web browser. This type of instrumentation involves using specialized tools and techniques to gather information about how a website is being used, such as page load times, network requests, and user interactions. The data collected through browser instrumentation can be used to improve website performance, identify and troubleshoot errors, and gain insights into user behavior.

Elasticsearch is a popular search engine that can be used to swiftly and almost instantly store, explore, and analyze huge volumes of data. It offers a distributed, multitenant full-text search engine with an HTTP web interface and schema-free JSON documents on top of Apache Lucene. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to communicate with an Elasticsearch cluster using a Python Elasticsearch client.

Welcome to our monthly product newsletter - SigNal 22! Last month our team worked on improving the logs tab and improved the correlation between telemetry signals to drive contextual insights faster. We were also trending on GitHub and crossed 2000+ developers in our slack community. Let’s dive in to see what humans at SigNoz were up to in the month of February 2023.
