Previously on this Azure dashboards series, we covered making dashboards natively in the Azure portal vs. SquaredUp for Azure for VMInsights and AppInsights. In this third and final part we will be comparing our dashboard experiences when it comes to cloud cost management and visualization. We’ve already talked about the resource-level cost dashboards in the previous parts, our main goal in this one is to display costs on the subscription level. Alright, let’s jump straight into it!

Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides tools that help with application management, machine learning, end-user computing, and much more. Users that utilize AWS, more than likely, have a combination of the many services AWS offers. LogicMonitor consolidates data from these services and empowers users to monitor them side by side with the rest of their infrastructure, whether it’s in the Cloud or on-premises. Keep reading for tips on monitoring some of these services to ensure business continuity.

The increasing adoption of cloud applications and an expanding remote workforce are redefining network security. In a traditional setting, the emphasis was on perimeter-based security—assuming that everything behind the corporate firewall is safe. However, it’s clear that organizations have to rethink the philosophy of implicit trust in a corporate network.

Got multiple AWS data sources in the same S3 bucket but struggle with efficient SNS notifications based on prefix wildcards? Well, struggle no more, we’ve got your back. Many of our customers have a centralised S3 Bucket for log collection for multiple sources and accounts. For example, all Config, CloudTrail and Access Log logs may be routed into one central bucket for an organisation.

As cloud environments grow and evolve more rapidly than ever, and with new cloud services emerging every day, achieving and maintaining a high level of organization across hundreds of resources and global teams can seem like a daunting task. However, it’s not impossible, and can be done through tagging. This post will cover the fundamentals of tags, as well as a comprehensive roadmap to developing a tagging strategy.

Last month, our team published a blog post titled How we reduced the AWS costs of our streaming data pipeline by 67%, which went viral on HackerNews (Top 5). Clearly, developers are hungry to learn about new AWS cost-saving strategies. We’ve had a lot of questions about AWS cost optimization stemming from the original post. However, this question from Carl at Klarna inspired us to write another post. So without further delay, here’s how we approached the problem and made the switch.

Technology touches almost every corner of the world economy. Even when it’s an indirect relation, in many cases tech is an essential, vital part of our societies. It just can’t fail without causing too much distress and losses. Not only financially, but especially to the human aspect.

Ocean by Spot enables a serverless container infrastructure experience. Today, we are excited to deliver a configurable health check period for auto scaling nodes in order to increase the flexibility of Ocean to meet all of our customer’s needs.

In this article, we will show how it’s easily possible to monitor AWS Fargate with Sysdig Monitor. By leveraging existing Prometheus ingestion in Sysdig, you will be able to monitor serverless services with a single-pane-of-glass approach, giving you confidence in running these services in production.

Microsoft Azure customers worldwide now gain access to HackerBay’s Fyipe to take advantage of the scalability, reliability, and agility of Azure to drive application development and shape business strategies.
