Plugin showcase: The hourly heatmap panel, built on Grafana's new plugin platform

Since Petr Slavotinek created the Carpet plot plugin in 2017, it’s been one of the most popular community plugins for Grafana. Unfortunately, even though the Carpet plot plugin continues to be useful to many users, it’s no longer being maintained. Grafana 7.0 introduced a brand new React-based platform, along with a set of improved APIs for building plugins.

Building an Observable Enterprise App

Once an app is launched to market, it’s up to the engineering team to ensure that it continues to meet its SLAs. See how we use VMware Tanzu Observability (Wavefront) and Sentry to proactively monitor and fix issues before they become production problems. Every engineering leader has experienced the anxiety and stress of taking an app to production. It’s a mix of excitement and trepidation – your creation will be used in real life, but what if something goes wrong?

Evaluating Go's Package Management and Module Systems

When you're evaluating a language for your next project, few things are more important than available third-party libraries and the package manager that ties them together. While early versions of Go lacked a package manager, they've made up for lost time. In this article, Ayooluwa Isaiah introduces us to go's module ecosystem to help us decide if go is "a go" for our next project.

Building AIOps Now for the Future

AIOps is a term Gartner invented to describe a general trend of applying AI techniques to IT Operations data sources to provide additional insights and scale to the teams operating today’s complex software system. AIOps is essentially a feature or set of features to analyze, combine, and collect data. Unfortunately, the lack of AI in these solutions often turns many people off, but this promise is still possible.

Announcing Codefresh Runner: a foolproof, easy way to run pipelines on your own Kubernetes clusters.

Running and maintaining CI/CD infrastructure has long been a headache for engineering teams which has led to the popularity of SAAS solutions like Codefresh cloud. But for many, this doesn’t meet their strict security requirements or allow them to access on-prem code, artifacts, or other resources.

Achieve Greater Network Visibility with LogicMonitor and Cisco SD-WAN

SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Networking) centralizes and automates the configuration of network devices and how they route traffic. This is increasingly important as not all network traffic is created equal; there are specific business-critical applications that are relied on more heavily than others. In addition to intelligent routing benefits, SD-WAN also allows IT managers to deploy internet-connectivity quickly, reliability, and securely.

Achieving AWS DevOps Competency Status (and What it Means for You)

Chaos Engineering was conceived as a direct response to the complexity and nondeterministic nature of cloud-based applications. Thoughtful fault injection closes the gap between traditional testing methodologies and modern approaches to software engineering like microservices, continuous delivery, and DevOps.

Automatically extend Mattermost sessions for less frequent logouts and happier end users

Frequent logouts are a frustrating experience for users, especially on servers with short session lengths configured. In v5.24 and later, you can enable the configuration setting for extending session length with activity to automatically extend sessions and keep users logged in as long as they are active in their Mattermost apps.
