Within a Linux network or development system, launching a limited set of applications or services (often known as microservices) in a self-sustaining container or sandboxed environment is sometimes necessary. A container enables administrators to decouple a specific set of software applications from the operating system and have them run within a clean, minimal, and isolated Linux environment of their own.
“What??? Fully end of life by April, you say? As in, ‘in-six-weeks’ April? Well, there go my weekends for a while. When will we ever get this right?” We’ve all been there at some point, completely under water, late on key projects, having to fight to get our SLA and security KPIs green and completely forget that time is running and now, again, core components are nearing their end of life. Here at Nexthink, we don’t want you to have to go through that.

Troubleshooting is a critical skill for developers and DevOps. As our software grows more sophisticated, our problems do too. The cloud adds a new layer of complexity since we need to know how to find a problem that doesn’t occur locally, but has cropped up on a remote system.
Picture a perfect world where all logs shared the same layout, format, and structure. Every application, programming language, and logging framework created logs that were verbose, yet easily parsable. Of course, we don’t live in this ideal world, and so we’re stuck with dozens or even hundreds of various log formats. While LogDNA supports a large number of common log formats, there are formats out there that our automatic parsing engine won’t recognize.
As part of our continuing security program here at BugSplat, we’re switching to an authentication service called Auth0 for all of our account logins. Auth0 is a universal authentication and authorization platform that supports customer-requested features like federated logins, which means authenticating with a different provider, and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) which is a two-step login protocol requiring separate verification from a mobile device to access your account.
