Prometheus is an open-source monitoring and alerting toolkit that helps developers and operators track the performance and health of their systems. One of its key features is the ability to use buckets to measure and analyse distributions of data. Buckets are essential for tracking HTTP request durations, database query times, and memory usage, helping to understand system behaviour.

Managing log files effectively is crucial for ensuring a well-performing, reliable system. Logrotate, a popular log management tool, provides a flexible way to automatically rotate, compress, and remove old logs. Among its many configurations, two common approaches to trigger log rotation are size-based and time-based rotation. In this blog, we will explore the differences between these methods, compare their use cases, and help you decide which approach (or combination) suits your needs best.

If you have ever faced performance issues in an application, whether it's sluggish load times, long processing delays, or poor scalability you have probably been told that optimizing the code or database is the solution. But what does that really mean in practice? A lot of the time, it boils down to one of two causes: either a poorly optimized algorithm (often with quadratic or exponential time complexity) or an inefficient database query.
