Cloud application requirements have pushed beyond the limitations of relational database management systems. This rising demand for managing unstructured data, along with the growing need for data analytics, has caused significant market growth in the NoSQL database sector. MongoDB, as one of the classical NoSQL databases, is a powerful tool helping companies align with new cloud-based business strategies. With great power comes great responsibility.

Atlassian, the maker of Opsgenie (We have an integration for Opsgenie too!), also offers Statuspage. Statuspage is a communication tool that allows users to view the current and recent past status of a website, API, or web application. In addition to a hosted status notification page, Statuspage also sends out messages to users to keep them informed about your site’s availability. Now Uptrends can automatically send updates to Statuspage using the new integration.

Microservices and distributed architectures have become the norm for building modern day applications. While the cloud has made it easier to deploy and scale microservices, it has opened up a complex set of problems for DevOps by virtue of the sheer volume of interactions between those services.

In SCOM you can see the monitoring that generates your alerts (the contents of Health Explorer). While SCOM doesn’t always make it easy to get at the valuable context that this monitoring data provides, it is there and can help answer the "why" questions that often come up when looking at an alert in isolation.

Java is used by at least 7.6 Million developers worldwide. Java logging has been a staple of the Java platform since day one, boasting extensive, resourceful documentation and rich API’s. The cornerstone of monitoring your application is efficient and widespread logging. At Coralogix, we know that logs have become one of the most important components of a modern monitoring function.

Hi, I’m Owen, one of the Loki maintainers, and I’m putting proverbial pen to paper to convince you why Loki is important. And this isn’t because it scales (it does) or because I work at Grafana Labs (I do). It’s because of the oft-overlooked and underrepresented organizational benefits. Organizational benefits?! What is this, some sort of cult? Why are you avoiding the technicals? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Now, hold on. The technicals are still valid.

Working with Serverless computing is like riding an electric bike. You get speed, flexibility, automatic assistance to scale with ease. Development is usually hassle-free because you can focus on code and only pay for usage of the service. Except when your users hit an error. Debugging that issue feels like your bike’s battery just died while climbing a steep hill.

Watching too many movies might give you the impression that cyber attacks are launched by well-funded masterminds able to control the internet at their whim. But really, successful attacks can be as simple as disguising some malicious software as a link to an often-used site, and tricking people into clicking it, known as phishing. The result is that many cyber attacks are carried out by taking advantage of unsuspecting end users.

Log files are infamous for being “noisy”. Without the right management solution, trying to find a specific piece of information or using them to reproduce a critical error is a complex undertaking. If you’re working with CI/CD, how do you attribute new errors to a particular release? How do you investigate those errors and make sure that your customers aren’t being impacted? Faster releases mean shorter development and testing cycles before new code reaches production.

In today’s world of remote workers and distributed teams, a seamless digital user experience is the most significant aspect driving productivity and collaboration and Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) allows an enterprise or service provider to optimize the performance of critical cloud productivity and collaboration tools, for a smooth user experience.
