Setting up triggers within AppSignal is a powerful way to discover that the bits started hitting the fan. You can use triggers to get an alert if an error rate is higher than 1%, your server runs out of memory, or even if your hourly login drops to zero. Our latest update makes the creation of triggers much easier.
Automation has evolved from being a management consultant’s go-to-advice to being a central part of every organization’s strategic plan. The biggest misconception about automation is that it is exercised in areas where the company wants to reduce human capital. Contradictorily, automation standardizes mundane processes and frees employees to focus on more value-producing activities that require their unique skills and knowledge.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a comprehensive cloud computing platform, providing an array of services to manage a business’s data infrastructure to help it grow and expand. With the wide range of services provided, it has multiple options to provide you with an elastic approach to optimize your costs. However, many users struggle with controlling their expenditure due to a variety of factors. Getting a complete understanding of how to reduce your AWS operational costs may be a daunting task.
Here at Spot by NetApp we’re continuously innovating our machine learning models used for identifying and predicting spot capacity usage and interruptions for all major public clouds (AWS, Azure and GCP). These proprietary algorithms expand the ability to utilize spot capacity for production and mission-critical workloads, allowing our customers to enjoy up to 90% cloud compute cost reduction with SLAs and SLOs that guarantee availability.
Logz.io has deepened its partnership with Hashicorp over the last few months. Recently, we announced our integration with their service mesh, Hashicorp Consul. Simultaneously, we have worked on and completed an integration with their infrastructure orchestrator (a.k.a, infrastructure-as-code or IAC), Terraform. IACs take manual configurations and treats them as, well, code (along with procedures, build guides, run books, etc.).
Observability is made up of metrics, logs, and traces. These pillars help us understand the behavior of applications under normal execution, which further accelerates identifying anomalies in case of application failure or deviation from normal execution. Logging is not about tracing each and every operation, it is about sensible, consistent, and machine-readable log messages that expose the application behavior.
Web development before the age of web frameworks is difficult to imagine. Setting up a robust, dependable web app from scratch is a daunting task that requires years of knowledge and experience. Nowadays, however, with the help of effective, easy to use web frameworks, it doesn’t take more than a few minutes to get going.
Helm is an application package manager for Kubernetes. Using Kubernetes can often be overwhelming to maintain resources. Since Kubernetes is configured by YAML files, the more complex your application becomes, the more difficult it will be to navigate and make changes to the respective files; think about lots and lots of repetitive YAML files. A scenario that makes every developer cringe. Helm can help you solve this.
Infrastructure monitoring is often equated to infrastructure management, which can blur the line between two very distinct jobs. While they are different, it’s safe to say that both infrastructure monitoring and management have the same end goals, i.e., to maintain the integrity of the network, secure the server, and optimize performance. Infrastructure management (IM) has many use cases, and one of those uses cases is infrastructure monitoring.
Over the course of 2020, Community events have changed. We’ve seen sweeping changes in everything from the way people get together online, to the way they interact, to the platforms they use to meet. Mattermost is a Community-driven company, and as such we continue to try to work and interact with our Community as much as we possibly can.
