I have worked at Virtana for nearly 9 years. During that time, I have had the pleasure to interact with customers, prospects, and partners around the world. The types of conversations I have participated in have dramatically shifted during that time. Back in September 2011, the dialogues were largely focused on Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructure, and how Virtana could provide performance assurances targeted at this environment. Over time, the conversations have broadened dramatically.

Sumo Logic is taking the next step towards Moderate authorization under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). Today Sumo moved from “Ready” to “In Process” on the FedRAMP Marketplace, an important step toward expanding our ability to serve U.S. governmental agencies.

Across almost all industries, IT’s focus has shifted from WFH (Work From Home) to WFA (Work From Anywhere). Some businesses and organizations might be further along in facilitating flexible work, but it seems like everybody is instinctively starting to rethink both their short and long term management strategies.

Our Telegraf Starlark Processor Plugin is an exciting new processor in Telegraf 1.15 that gives you the flexibility of performing various operations in Telegraf using the Starlark language. What is Starlark, you ask? Starlark (formerly known as Skylark) is a language intended for use as a configuration language. Starlark is a dialect of Python. Like Python, it is a dynamically typed language with high-level data types, first-class functions with lexical scope, and garbage collection.

Last week we released Telegraf 1.15 with new plugins for network monitoring and a large number of processors to help with your data ingestion. All packages were written in Go 1.14.5. This all couldn’t have been done without the 50+ community members who contributed to writing plugins, fixing bugs, reviewing code, and everything else to help make Telegraf better! Here’s a quick look into new plugins and features we launched in Telegraf 1.15.

Having visibility into your Java application is crucial for understanding how it works right now, how it worked some time in the past and increasing your understanding of how it might work in the future. More often than not, analyzing logs is the fastest way to detect what went wrong, thus making logging in Java critical to ensuring the performance and health of your app, as well as minimizing and reducing any downtime.

In this post we’ll show how you can easily ship your existing Graphite metrics to Grafana’s managed metric offering using carbon-relay-ng. Carbon-relay-ng is a fast, go-based carbon-relay replacement that allows you to easily aggregate, filter and route your Graphite metrics. This post assumes you have a local carbon-relay-ng binary. You can download carbon-relay-ng binaries from the releases page and find documentation on Docker images, Linux packages, and how to build it yourself here.

Our mobile team has just released an updated version of our mobile application. We have completely reworked the navigation and make it available on iOS!

For as long as we can remember, Sentry has had some version of CSV Exports. They’ve been limited only 1000 rows of results, which did the job for the most part. However, the more you used Sentry, the more we found that limit wasn’t good enough. What if I told you there was a way to get all your data in the exports in a single CSV? That’s right, no more DIY python scripts. No more manually piecing CSVs together. No more feature-request tickets.

The integration of Flowmon with an external user database such as Active Directory (AD) significantly simplifies access rights management both for small companies and enterprises. Although it has been available for some time, there are some helpful functions that may not be immediately obvious.
