Focus on what matters with instant visibility into the condition of your backup application and detailed analytics to quickly pinpoint where any issues lie. IBM’s backup monster, Spectrum Protect (TSM as we called back in the day), sucks. Not because the software sucks – it’s actually the best there is – but because backups suck in general.

When your applications raise errors, you need a way to make sense of them so you can set priorities, start troubleshooting, and gauge the success of your efforts. Errors can appear within the thousands of browser sessions and backend hosts running your software, making it difficult to find meaning within the noise. This is especially true of frontend errors, where seemingly endless permutations of browser version, location, and other environmental details can make it hard to spot trends.
Testing within the CI/CD pipeline, also known as shift-left testing, is a devops best practice that enables agile teams to continually assess the viability of new features at every stage of the development process. Running tests early and often makes it easier to catch issues before they impact your users, reduce technical debt, and foster efficient, cross-team collaboration.
