AIOps adoption is on the rise. According to Gartner, by 2023 40 percent of DevOps teams will augment application and infrastructure monitoring tools with AIOps platform capabilities. Use cases are also expanding beyond IT to include IT Service Management (ITSM), digital experience monitoring (DEM), DevOps, Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and third party services.
Logs, metrics and traces are the three pillars of the Observability world. The distributed tracing world, in particular, has seen a lot of innovation in recent months, with OpenTelemetry standardization and with Jaeger open source project graduating from the CNCF incubation. According to the recent DevOps Pulse report, Jaeger is used by over 30% of those practicing distributed tracing.
Modern applications are platform-agnostic which means that they can run seamlessly in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Google Anthos, released in 2019, is an application management platform that allows developers and IT to build and run applications across on-prem and public clouds (including competing cloud providers). Hosted on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Anthos helps organizations create enterprise-grade containerized applications that are secure and portable across multiple venues.
San Jose, Calif., Oct. 8, 2020 — Perfect Image’s IT infrastructure has seen a 10:1 return on investment by implementing a multi-cloud rightsizing and optimization tool. The UK-based managed service provider’s improvements in results were gained through its partnership with Virtana, a leader in enterprise hybrid cloud migration and optimization.
FireHydrant’s Slack integration is a great way to speed up your incident response, especially if FireHydrant Runbooks is automatically creating channels in your Slack workspace for each incident. “But what happens after the incident?” First of all, you shouldn’t have to manually archive those Slack channels; especially when you don’t want them clogging up the Slack navigation bar.
Every day we discover new vulnerabilities in our systems, cracks in the fence the adversaries take advantage of to get into your organization and wreak havoc. Understanding what you have in your environment (e.g., types of devices, systems equipment, etc.) is very important in order to make sure the controls in place are working and more importantly, keeping up with the threat landscape.
We are excited to announce a new integration to help developers add partner solutions to their serverless applications. AWS recently released Lambda Extensions to allow Lambda to augment the Function invocation lifecycle. Extensions from AWS, AWS Lambda Ready partners, and open source projects are useful for a wide range of use cases. For example, Extensions simplify a development workflow by automatically instrumenting Lambda functions or deploying operational tools without needing code changes.
If there’s one golden rule of digital transformation, it’s that developers must be able to develop new apps and features—quickly, simply, and securely. If there’s another golden rule of digital transformation, it’s that developers must be able to push that new code to production—quickly, simply, and securely. Without these capabilities, it’s less digital transformation and more digital lip service.
Security and data breaches continue to be among the top concerns of organizations around the world. As a SaaS provider, we always make the information security of our customers our top consideration and build service and the operational controls around it, all while striving to adhere to the best security practices the industry has established.
We are excited to announce the preview of the Splunk extension for AWS Lambda, a new way to integrate monitoring and observability in Lambda environments. Splunk is already the pioneer in providing real-time observability into serverless environments. With the Splunk extension, capturing and ingesting observability data become seamless without the need to instrument function code.
