As pressure increases on enterprise IT teams to streamline processes and reduce downtime, many organizations are looking for new tools and strategies. Customers and stakeholders expect operational efficiency and service reliability. Tools within the AIOps industry can relieve the pressure by reducing alert noise, automating manual workflows, and reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR). However, the challenges don’t end at tool purchase.

Gremlin’s default suite of reliability tests analyzes critical functions of modern services: scalability, redundancy, and resilience to dependency failures. Services that pass this suite of tests can be trusted to remain available during unexpected incidents. But what happens when a service fails a test? How do you take failed test results and turn them into actionable insights? This blog aims to answer that question.

This guide shows you how to easily use Jaeger with OpenTelemetry for improved tracing and application monitoring.

In today’s digital age, social media and online communication have become an integral part of our daily lives. From scrolling through TikTok and Instagram to sending countless texts and emails, we’re constantly connected. Each minute spent scrolling or sending a quick message may seem harmless, but these small actions add up to a significant carbon footprint. The tech industry accounts for 7% of global emissions and is predicted to rise with the growth of data centers.

The International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) is only getting bigger and better. This year’s show saw over 45,000 attendees and featured 1,350 exhibitors from around the world. The four-day event explored the latest advancements and trends shaping the future of the media and broadcasting industry, with AI at the forefront.

We hear it often—data volumes are growing at a 28% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) year over year, and organizations struggle to manage it all. With no additional money in their budgets, they can’t afford to store more and more data in their SIEM, which in most cases means being uncompliant or, worse, not having older data readily available in the case of a recently discovered breach. I’ve repeatedly heard that the data they have archived is practically inaccessible.

We recently adjusted how we handle “partial writes” with our InfluxDB Cloud Serverless product using the v2 Write API. This only applies to InfluxDB Cloud Serverless customers (those who created their Cloud accounts after January 31, 2023). In the near future, we will make this change for InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated and InfluxDB Clustered customers as well.

SHARE For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), handling multiple clients’ IT environments means handling vast amounts of sensitive data, critical systems, and privileged access. Role-based access control (RBAC) is essential for data security and customer confidence to ensure that only the right people can gain access to sensitive information.

Prometheus has emerged as the de facto standard for monitoring in cloud-native environments based on several key factors. Prometheus offers a highly scalable time-series database, capable of handling millions of metrics and a pull-based architecture that simplifies network configuration and enhances security. In this blog post, we’ll explore the four primary Prometheus metric types: counter, gauge, histogram, and summary.

Managing IT operations in today's digital workplace is increasingly complex. The lack of visibility, the intricacies of modern systems, the rise of remote work, and the consumerization of applications all contribute to the challenges faced by IT teams. According to Gartner, 56% of IT leaders cite budget restrictions, 51% mention internal resistance to change, and 44% highlight talent issues as significant obstacles.
