Jaeger vs Prometheus - Side by Side Comparison [Updated for 2023]

Both Jaeger and Prometheus are popular open-source application performance monitoring tools. While Jaeger is an end-to-end distributed tracing tool, Prometheus is used as a time-series database for monitoring metrics. Let's dive in to explore their key features and differences. Application performance monitoring is the key to keep your system's health in check. In today's digital economy, no business can afford to have failed or delayed completion of user requests.

OpenTelemetry MongoDB | Monitor and visualize your MongoDB database calls

OpenTelemetry libraries can be used to monitor MongoDB interactions. In this tutorial, we will learn how we can monitor MongoDB with OpenTelemetry libraries to analyze query execution and identify performance bottlenecks. Most modern applications have distributed architecture thanks to cloud and containerization. In cloud-native applications, it is necessary to track user requests across services and components like databases.

8 Steps to Create a Successful Cloud Strategy

In today’s digital world, performance and agility are essential for running a successful business, and in the technology arena, there is no exception. Over the past few years, there has been a significant rise in the use of cloud computing technology as more companies prefer scalability of resources, flexibility in experimenting with new technologies, reducing cost by eliminating the need to invest in on-premises hardware, etc.

Use embedded AI to find performance problems

The root cause of a performance transaction can be complex to troubleshoot, but it does not have to be. By using AppDynamics’s built-in machine learning capabilities, we can quickly identify Health Rule violations triggered by transaction response times deviating from their baseline and then combine those with diagnostic capabilities that get us to the specific cause. We are able to drill down into the relevant snapshots to see which method and specific line of code is to blame.
