SaaS Observability is a busy, competitive marketplace. Alas, it is also a very homogeneous industry. Vendors implement the features that have worked well for their competition, and genuine innovation is rare. At Coralogix, we have no shortage of innovation, so here are four features of Coralogix that nobody else in the observability world has.
Long-term storage, especially for logs, is essential to any modern observability provider. Each vendor has their own method for handling this problem. While there are numerous available solutions, let’s explore just one – DataDog – and see the benefits and limitations.
Observability is the ability to gather data from metrics, logs, traces, and other sources, and use that data to form a complete picture of a system’s behavior, performance, and health. While monitoring alone was once the go-to approach for managing IT infrastructure, observability goes further, allowing IT teams to detect and understand unexpected or unknown events.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently announced the release of Amazon Linux 2023 (AL2023) as the next generation of Amazon Linux with enhancements to its already-proven reliability. Besides offering frequent updates and long-term support, AL2023 provides a predictable release cadence, flexibility, and control over new versions. It also eliminates the operational overhead that comes with creating custom policies to meet standard compliance requirements.
OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability framework that provides a vendor-neutral and language-agnostic way to collect and analyze telemetry data. This tutorial will show you how to integrate OpenTelemetry on Kubernetes, a popular container orchestration platform. Prerequisites.
Businesses are increasingly adopting distributed microservices to build and deploy applications. Microservices directly streamline the production time from development to deployment; thus, businesses can scale faster. However, with the increasing complexity of distributed services comes visual opacity of your systems across the company. In other words, the more complex your system gets, the harder it becomes to visualize how it works and how individual resources are allocated.
