Instrumenting the performance of custom code (the code you write, not the libraries you require) in web apps has been a thorn in my side for years. Yes, we have a custom instrumentation API, but raise your hand if you enjoy sprinkling your code with this? Anyone? Having a custom code instrumentation blackhole doesn't matter if your app spends almost all of its time in common libraries that Scout instruments by default (ex: ActiveRecord, Redis, View Rendering, and HTTP calls).

Since Google open sourced Kubernetes in 2014, it has become one of the most popular open source projects. Adopted by all major cloud providers, Kubernetes has undoubtedly become the de facto container orchestrator. But what is Kubernetes and container orchestration really about? Without the technical background and knowledge about the technology developments that preceded it, it can be challenging to wrap your head around it.

ChatOps is the implementation of chatbots to unify communication and collaboration. Through ChatOps every single member of a team will be aware of what the other members are working on.

Projects of today are developed at a global scale with millions of people as potential users, this means that teams are larger and often work in shifts or even remotely.

Here at Lumigo, we are big fans of serverless. And a big part of working with AWS Lambda involves using many other AWS services. For example, services such as SNS and SQS are often used to chain Lambda functions together. They are essential ingredients of an event-driven architecture, where systems are loosely coupled through events. However, they also pose a challenge to how we test our systems and how to get fast feedback on what’s happening in the system.

Many companies today try to feed business metrics into APM or IT monitoring systems. Splunk, Datadog and others track your business in real time, based on log or application data – something that would seem to make sense. In practice, however, it fails to produce accurate and effective monitoring or reduce time to detection of revenue-impactful issues. Why? Because monitoring machines and monitoring business KPIs are completely different tasks.
