Introducing CloudZero Budgets: Improve Cost Predictability And Eliminate Surprises

The best budgets aren't roadblocks. They're guardrails: boundaries for quick, collaborative work. Historically, when finance and engineering teams have discussed cloud cost, they’ve run into an obstacle: They don’t speak the same language. At the end of each month, finance gets an ever-changing cloud bill, and engineering explains that, whatever the total, it represents what they need to do their work. Stalemate.

Using Oracle Cloud as a Data Lake Made Simple With Cribl LogStream

All Cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Oracle Cloud offer Object Storage solutions to economically store large volumes of data and retrieve it on demand. It’s far cheaper to store one petabyte of data in object storage than in block storage. As AWS S3 has become the standard, many on-premise storage appliance vendors have incorporated S3 APIs to store and retrieve data. Oracle wisely continued that trend to OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure).

Designing production-ready AWS serverless applications

Serverless has become an increasingly popular paradigm among organizations looking to modernize their applications as it allows them to increase agility while reducing their operational overhead and costs. But the highly distributed nature of serverless architectures requires developers to rethink their approach to application design and development. AWS-based serverless applications hinge on AWS Lambda functions, which are stateless and ephemeral by design.

Improving Environmental Sustainability Through Cloud Migration

With rising awareness and increasing calls for action, the pressure is on to improve your organization’s energy sustainability. While frequently overlooked, moving your IT workloads to the cloud is one of the quickest ways to achieve a material reduction in your carbon footprint. Organizations typically look to the cloud to improve agility, scalability, and reduce costs.

Whether you’re in the process of evaluating cloud cost management vendors or already have a tool in place, here are 19 questions you should ask to ensure you have all the capabilities needed to maximize performance and minimize cost of your hybrid cloud deployment across the following.

Dashbird now integrates with 5 new AWS services

TL;DR: Dashbird launches observability for five new AWS services (ELB, SNS, RDS, OpenSearch, and HTTP API Gateway) to allow for a faster, more secure, and smoother serverless observability experience. Dashbird, the leading monitoring platform for serverless AWS applications, announces five new AWS integrations.

Azure Service Bus Logging with BAM - Walk-through

In a previous article, we talked about how you could use BAM to do advanced management of dead lettered messages on the Azure Service Bus using a scenario like below. This article will show how you can set up this kind of example. Let’s assume your Order Processing functions are already in place, and your starting point is that sometimes you will get dead-lettered messages, and we need to implement the Send message to the BAM logic app and configure Serverless360.
