Back in 2008 when we began our journey, cloud computing was still relatively new. Though the term had a lot of buzz around it, organizations only considered the cloud as a place to experiment, not as a viable alternative to run production workloads. Now, the cloud has become the go-to strategy for enterprises and startups alike to deliver their digital business.
We recently released a new set of features that increase visibility into errors across your organization. These features are great and helpful, and you should definitely be using them right now. That said, we also want to remind you of great and helpful integrations that also maximize visibility into your errors.
As your AWS usage grows, so will your stockpile of EBS snapshots and AMI images. Many of these are used for backups, while others are used to launch EC2 instances from Auto Scaling groups and EC2 launch templates.

To be successful with SCOM, you have to tune SCOM and keep it tuned.
A proper container security strategy involves evaluating all components in the system.
When I was a kid, we would head to the city to buy things, everything from a pair of shoes to new school supplies. As I grew up in the 1990s, we were introduced to a new way of shopping: malls.
