This post is part of a series on troubleshooting NGINX 502 Bad Gateway errors. If you’re not using PHP-FPM, check out our other article on troubleshooting NGINX 502s with Gunicorn as a backend. PHP-FastCGI Process Manager (PHP-FPM) is a daemon for handling web server requests for PHP applications. In production, PHP-FPM is often deployed behind an NGINX web server. NGINX proxies web requests and passes them on to PHP-FPM worker processes that execute the PHP application.

What does it take to write a GDPR compliant privacy policy? It was easier than we realized! This is a continuation of our series on ensuring StatusGator complies with the terms of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation. The GDPR has very specific requirements for privacy policies. Companies must provide clear and accessible information about the personal data they collect and what they do with it.

Beginning with huge systems occupying large physical space, technology has enabled smaller, versatile devices that can be used anywhere at anytime. From the communications and hospitality industries to the public sector, either on-premises, cloud, or hybrid services were employed to make processes cost-effective.

ManageEngine brought home its first set of accolades for 2020: two InfoSec Awards presented by Cyber Defense Magazine at RSA Conference 2020. Amidst the over 3,000 cyberdefense innovators that were assessed by Cyber Defense Magazine for its 2020 InfoSec Awards, ManageEngine was recognized for its identity and access management (IAM) offering, AD360, and for its insider threat prevention in Log360.

If you think of it in terms of Tuckman’s stages of team development, suddenly shifting to remote en masse throws your team into “storming” mode. Confusion and frustration abound, and everything feels twice as hard as it should. (We know because we’ve been there.) Your goal right now is to get back to the “performing” stage and resume your regularly-scheduled level of productivity. Here are five ways to do that.

There's no type of monitoring tool that can get to the heart of a performance problem faster than Application Performance Management (APM). If you're making this decision, you may be choosing between New Relic and Scout. There are cases where New Relic is a better fit, clear cases where Scout fits like a glove, and some murky situations as well. Where do you fall? Below, I'll summarize the factors to consider when choosing your best APM product.

So far, we’ve learnt how to collect data (part 2) and pull it into Azure Log Analytics (part 3), as well as how to actually work with the data using Kusto (part 4). Now it’s time to explore how we can visualize this data, make dashboards, share them with other teams in our organizations and so on. Unfortunately, dashboarding in Azure is not very sophisticated, and neither is it centralized.

I’ve always been a huge fan of mystery novels and true crime stories. It seems true crime is having an especially big moment right now, from serial killer documentaries to podcasts. Like so many people, I find myself drawn in as I read, watch, or listen to the criminal investigation. It’s fascinating how detectives work, diving into the smallest of details to solve massive crimes.

DevOps is a software development practice that combines development and operations teams. When organizations use DevOps, they typically also use agile methodologies for managing and completing projects. The combination of DevOps and agile practices enables teams to build software faster and more efficiently. One of the primary tools of DevOps is the continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline.

Bugs will happen from time to time. As our systems grow in complexity, new functionalities mean new risks. What makes or breaks a team is not only how it handles incidents, but also how it learns from them. This is where incident postmortems come into the picture.
