It shouldn’t be a surprise that Lambda configuration error is one of the most common error messages, and we all know AWS error messages aren’t known for being especially detailed. Oftentimes you will come across other vague error messages like “encoding not enabled,” or “stream is failing,” and depending on the context, this could mean your services could be completely down.

Browser-based text editors alleviate the need to install fully-fledged word processors on computers.

As we develop and deploy cloud compute automation and optimization solutions here at Spot by NetApp, we use various tools to improve our day-to-day operations. In this post I’ll share how we’ve found Terraform Cloud from Hashicorp to be quite helpful with deployment management.

Running an Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure on premise has major challenges like high capex and requires internal expertise. It can provide a lot of benefits for organisations that want to establish an AI strategy. The solution outlined in this post illustrates the power and the utility of the universal Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) using Juju, a universal OLM, to create and manage on premise AI infrastructure.

Organizations are migrating an increasing amount of their infrastructure into the cloud. The cloud provides organizations with a number of benefits like greater scalability, improved reliability and faster time to value. However, these potential benefits can be offset if security is an afterthought.

Forced work from home policies, remote learning, and quarantines have effectively turned consumer broadband into business/educational/health broadband services for many.
