DevOps is a complex, multi-dimensional topic. It is context-sensitive. Those who attempt to learn about and implement DevOps bring their roles and cultural perspectives to the process. Diversity of opinion and expertise can be an important advantage. However, it can also lead to friction and contention in developing DevOps consensus.
Serverless apps are growing in popularity, thanks to tools like AWS API Gateway and Lambda, and a growing number of powerful frameworks that simplify development and deployment. Complex applications are still complex, however, and regardless of your platform you’ll still need to think about observability.
Globalization and foreign investments have completely changed the way enterprises are run today. Enterprises are expanding geographically to diversify their risk portfolio, but this expansion hasn’t been linear. From mergers to buyouts, today’s enterprises have endless possibilities, which translates into inorganic, exponential growth—something that’s become the industry norm.
Last week, we'll bet you've received an onslaught of "we've updated our privacy policy" emails. If you're a website manager maybe you've been writing those emails and ensuring your site is compliant with the new regulations. It's been interesting (for us anyway) to listen to reactions to GDPR. It seems that people are split between "what a nightmare - so much paperwork" and "this is great - it protects our privacy" and there is no doubt that we have felt a bit of both.
Splunk helps IT operations (ITOps) teams simultaneously reduce their mean time to resolution (MTTR) and drive collaboration. To better understand Splunk, let’s take a closer look at the software platform, how it works and its benefits.
We are delighted to announce the 4th version of Uptimia. The previous version was more than two years old, and we needed a new look.
It sucks to spend a long time building an app then get complaints about slow loading pages. You don’t know which pages the problems occur on, let alone the environment. So, software performance problems stay elusive, and linger on in your app, causing havoc for end users and your bottom line.
We recently raised an additional $16 million in funding from our partners at NEA and Accel. What are we going to do with these additional funds? Great question! For a long time Sentry has had a rigid, singular focus: given an application error, discover everything a developer needs to know about it and inform the team as quickly as possible.
Code Triage is an open source app built to help other open source projects. Popular open source projects receive a lot of bug reports, feature requests, and pull requests every day, and just reading through all of them can be a huge time sink for their maintainers. Here at Skylight, we are involved in a number of popular open source projects ourselves, so we understand this problem pretty well!
We are excited to announce the beta version of our new alerting condition configuration UI. In addition to allowing you to define alerting conditions more precisely, this new UI provides an easier, more visual way to find the metrics to alert on. The new UI lets you use the same metrics selector as used in Stackdriver’s Metrics Explorer to define a broader set of conditions. Starting today, you can use that metrics selector to create and edit threshold conditions for alerting policies.
