If software's been eating the world for the past twenty years, it's safe to say machine learning has been eating it for the past five. But what exactly is machine learning? Why should a web developer care? This article by Julie Kent answers these questions. I don't have kids yet, but when I do, I want them to learn two things: Whether or not you believe that the singularity is near, there's no denying that the world runs on data.
Prometheus is an open-source system for monitoring and alerting originally developed by Soundcloud. It moved to Cloud Native Computing Federation (CNCF) in 2016 and became one of the most popular projects after Kubernetes. It can monitor everything from an entire Linux server to a stand-alone web server, a database service or a single process. In Prometheus terminology, the things it monitors are called Targets. Each unit of a target is called a metric.
The evolution of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is deeply intertwined with cloud computing, both in terms of technological breakthroughs the cloud provided and from its inherent security challenges. With the rise of cloud computing, we no longer rely on long-lived resources. An ephemeral infrastructure obscures the identity of the components and, even if you do have the visibility it doesn’t necessarily mean you can comprehend the meaning behind the components.
The unplanned and unbudgeted surge in remote workers is creating new requirements and challenges for IT management. Understanding how these changes impact the IT infrastructure and worker’s effectiveness is vital to business continuity. Goliath offers the following out-of-the box reports that can help to better document key performance indicators and activity for the remote workforce.
The Grafana v6.7 stable release includes improvements to Authorization and Enterprise reporting as well as a new plugin for Google Sheets. Check out the details below.
With the majority of the workforce working remotely due to COVID-19, DevOps teams are still focused on delivering reliable, performant services. In these challenging times, ensuring that infrastructure and applications are available at their highest level is even more imperative—and worthy of recognition. We are all in this together, and in the spirit of supporting each other, we are excited to announce our Observability All-Star program.
This is a guest post from Kamesh Pemmaraju of Platform9. As organizations move to a containerized world, whether by producing containerized software, consuming it or both, the need for a managed Kubernetes offering and an Enterprise-tested private Docker registry is apparent. With the introduction of Platform9‘s new Freedom Plan for managed Kubernetes, you can combine it with JFrog Container Registry and power up your containerization transformation for free.
Every integration(with a monitoring source) within O/P/V sends alerts according to a single escalation policy that is linked to that monitoring source(service), no matter what the nature of the alert is, what time of the day or week it is triggered, what the severity of the alert is, which component is affected.
At re:Invent in December, Amazon announced the AWS Graviton2 processor and its forthcoming availability powering Amazon EC2 M6g instances. While the first-generation Graviton processor that powered A1 instances was better suited to less compute-intensive workloads, this processor is intended to offer AWS customers a compelling alternative to conventional x86-powered instances on both performance and cost.
Maybe you’re interested in finding out more about deep learning? Maybe your current ML analytics are running too slowly or crushing your CPU and RAM? Or perhaps your boss has told you that they need an AI-based app so they can show off to their boss (who will then brag about it to their boss)?
