Software delivery are paramount. The ability to swiftly deploy, manage, and scale applications can make a significant difference in staying ahead in the competitive tech industry. Enter Docker and Kubernetes, two revolutionary technologies that have transformed the way we develop, deploy, and manage software.

Synthetic monitoring is a proactive approach that actively tests websites or apps, either scheduled or on demand, using automated testing scripts, ensuring that any issues are identified and resolved before they impact real users. This approach provides continuous oversight of the online presence, akin to having a vigilant eye on the website 24/7. In this article, we’re discussing synthetic monitoring, putting the accent on using browsers.

In Golang, the "context deadline exceeded" error typically occurs when an operation exceeds the context deadline. This article is a troubleshooting guide for this error and its possible causes.

LocalStack & Speedscale are both notable API simulation tools. Here’s how they compare across usability, monitoring, scalability, and customization.

Top tips is a weekly column where we highlight what’s trending in the tech world and list ways to explore these trends. This week, we’re discussing strategies that will help enhance the role of simulation technology in advancing the capabilities of AI.

Fluctuations in network usage within organizations can occasionally surge due to several factors. For instance, increased traffic might stem from activities such as large-scale promotional campaigns, sudden software updates or patches, escalated remote work demands, or even unforeseen security incidents. An article published by the Financial Express claims e-commerce order volumes spiked by 23% in 2023 during Black Friday sales on the Unicommerce platform.

Observability is a key pillar for today’s cloud-native companies. Cloud elasticity and the emergence of microservices architectures allow cloud native companies to build massively scalable architectures but also exponentially increase the complexity of IT systems.

Many cloud storage services are on the market today, which can be overwhelming, meaning many people will turn to the most popular ones, Google Drive and OneDrive, often because they are easier solutions. Without a doubt, they provide numerous benefits, including cost savings, ease of information transmission, and flexible storage, among others. Both cloud storage systems are powerful and have several advantages for regular work and life.

In part 1, we looked at how the design plan of traditional monitoring technologies depended heavily on properties of the systems that were intended to monitor and then showed how those properties began to be undermined by an increase in complexity, an increase which can ultimately be captured by the concept of entropy. In this part, we will explore how increased entropy forces us to rethink what is required for monitoring.

Internal Developer Portals and platforms do a lot—they're an all-in-one system of record, lever for defining and driving best practice, and vehicle for creating new software components. It's not hard to understand why undertaking such a project can be labor and resource intensive. But it doesn't necessarily have to be.
