Amazon CloudWatch — Amazon’s built-in infrastructure monitoring tool — monitors your Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources and the applications you run on AWS in real time. Here’s what you can do with this tool and how to access AWS CloudWatch monitoring dashboards.
SignalFx was founded in 2013 to enable customers to gather and monitor key information for both their application code and infrastructure. The efficient metrics storage technology enables both high cardinality of metrics as well as the no-sample method of gathering every APM trace. This combination of efficiency and standardization is exposed through the SignalFlow language to allow access and manipulation of the vast amount of metric data.
The ITIC 2020 Global Server Hardware, Server OS Reliability Report released in April found that reliability declined in 67 percent of servers over four years old when corporations failed to retrofit or upgrade the hardware to accommodate increased workloads. This highlights the pressing need for hardware monitor solutions and the need for immediate alerting mechanisms to ensure the longest possible lifespan for hardware.

Managing applications at scale often comes up as one of the biggest concerns for businesses; How can it work smoothly? How do we monitor so many resources? How do we maintain best practices with constantly evolving infrastructure? In this article, we run through the best approach for operational excellence looking at serverless monitoring strategy, serverless alerting strategy, and security and compliance best practices.
In this article, we’ll cover the key differences between APIs and microservices as answered by our contributors consisting of senior decision-makers and CTOs from technology companies around the world. One of the most popular ways to consume data from a web service is through a web application programming interface (API). By interface, we are referring to an agreement, or schema, that anyone using this API must abide by.
In the on-premises world, you have to provide your own capacity, which requires a delicate balance. Because you pay for all the hardware and software regardless of whether you use it, you don’t want to tie up budget if you don’t need it.
The Windows server is typically installed on heavy-use servers that act as the backbone of various IT apps and services. If you’re an organization that employs a Windows Server, you need to stay on top of your Windows server performance monitoring. This post discusses what Windows Server performance monitoring is and why it is essential, as well as best practices. Let’s get started! In this post, we’ll discuss: Let’s get started!
As you may know, InfluxDB is available in multiple forms, including InfluxDB Open Source and InfluxDB Cloud. Customers will sometimes ask us, “If I’m using InfluxDB Cloud, is there any reason I should also consider using InfluxDB open source?” It’s a fair question.
I’ve been primarily a Javascript developer for a long time now, it’s been my go-to language for the better part of a decade now, I even wrote a post on how to implement observability in a traditional Node.js application. Now, on top of hacking around in JS, I also love building things for AWS Lambda which is AWS’s option for Functions-as-a-Service.
