Microservices are dynamic and can scale horizontally in an instant, which poses challenges in monitoring when the locations of containers and services are constantly changing.

Monitoring has typically been the remit of small, specialised IT Operations teams but the tools they’ve been given are rarely fit for purpose in today’s demanding environments.

There are a number of reasons why email is predominately used to manage an incident. Everyone usually has access to email and the email technology has already been “paid for”. Therefore it’s easy to think of email as being a cheap resource that’s easy for MSPs to use. But easy isn’t always best…or even appropriate.

Any changes to a Postgresql database first of all are saved in Write-Ahead log, so they will never get lost. Only after that actual changes are made to the data in memory pages (in so called buffer cache) and these pages are marked dirty — meaning they need to be synced to disk later.
