Today we’d like to talk a little about our integration with Pagerduty. We’ll go through some of the benefits of using this product in conjunction with StatusCake and overview the functionalities that are unique to this integration.
If you ever (have to) ask yourself “When is the right time to address security issues?”, you’re already late to the party. Security isn’t that layer that you just add on top of your application before shipping it to production. Security is a mindset, that constant voice inside your head which asks “Is this safe?” each time you code something that pulls data out of storage or changes structures based on a user’s action.
The amount of data being generated today is unprecedented. In fact, more data has been created in the last 2 years, than in the entire history of the human race. With such volume, it’s crucial for companies to be able to harness their data in order to further their business goals. A big part of this is analyzing data and seeing trends, and this is where solutions such as Graphite and Grafana become critical.
As an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications, Kubernetes has grown immensely in popularity. Increasingly, we are also beginning to come across platforms offering Kubernetes as both a hosted and managed service.
So, you want to implement run-time security in your Kubernetes cluster? If you are looking for an open-source tool, obviously Sysdig Falco is the way to go :). You can install Falco as a daemonSet, but as we wanted to make things even easier and natively integrated, we have packaged Falco as a Helm chart, the Kubernetes package manager.
What’s surprising to see today is how business operations struggle to get an integrated view of all business metrics. With greater volumes of data being collected, data analysts just can’t keep up with the pace. This state of affairs alone doesn’t hit as hard as the fact that many in data analytics have just come to accept this situation as a norm and simply bear with this daily struggle.
At GrafanaCon EU, we gathered representatives of the Graphite, Prometheus, InfluxDB, and Timescale projects in the hopes of starting a spirited conversation about the current state of Time Series Databases. They didn’t disappoint! Here are a few highlights from the TSDB panel featuring Erik Nordstrom from Timescale, Dan Cech from Graphite, Paul Dix from InfluxDB, and Tom Wilkie from Prometheus, and moderated by Grafana Labs co-founder and CEO Raj Dutt.
