Last week, we took a look at how shareable activities - specifically the link made available to a particular activity’s logs in the management console - could be surfaced as a part of a GitHub integration using GitHub actions. It was a nice bit of fun playing around with GitHub actions for the first time, and it let me make something new and useful for my team’s work. But I caught a little bit of the curiosity bug.
Hey there, it's your survey analysis pal: me! O'Reilly recently published its 2021 cloud survey, and it’s got some great insights into cloud usage, migration, and strategy. Here are three things I thought I'd look at more deeply.
The following is an analysis of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) incident on 12/22/2021. When it comes to major AWS outages, three times is certainly not the charm. For the third time in three weeks, the public cloud giant reported an outage, this time due to a power outage “within a single data center within a single Availability Zone (USE1-AZ4) in the U.S.-EAST-1 Region," according to the AWS status page. Here at Catchpoint, we first observed issues at 07:11 a.m.
Life is all about perspective, and the way we look at things often defines us as individuals, professionals, business entities, and products. How you understand the world is influenced by many details, or in the case of your application – many data sources. At Coralogix, we not only preach comprehensive data analysis but strive to enable it by continuously adding new ways to collect data.
In our previous announcement, we announced that activities on Platform.sh were now shareable. If you need to send a member of our support team something fishy going on in your build hook, or get help from another member of your team about a database migration taking longer than expected, you can send them to the exact logline you need help with.
Multi-cloud hybrid cloud environments, microservices architectures, the rapid growth in the number of mission-critical applications, and the sudden surge in remote work have made enterprise networks exponentially complex. These networks are often not designed to handle the variety of physical and wireless media that’s become common today, for instance, the number of video calls, data transfer through screen sharing, etc.
Every year, the PHP foundation releases a new version of PHP that includes updated features for users. These new releases offer a sweet way to kick off every holiday season for developers and application makers (like me). Just days after its official release, we made PHP 8.1 available for all projects on our Grid plans. Now, you can take advantage of the long-awaited PHP 8.1 features on Platform.sh.
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers. Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s proven computing environment.
This post originally appeared on The New Stack and is re-published here with permission. In our technology-driven business climate, most companies have at least some, if not all, workloads on the cloud. And unlike on-premises networks, these cloud environments lack secure outer perimeters and specific off times. Cloud networks are always on and always available. While convenient, this also means hackers can access them at any time.
