Ruby - Tracing a Ruby application with OpenTelemetry for performance monitoring

Tracing your application can give the much needed context required to troubleshoot performance issues. OpenTelemetry is an open-source project that can help you to set up an observability framework for your cloud-native applications. In this tutorial, we will use SigNoz as our backend analysis tool. SigNoz is a full-stack open-source APM tool that can be used for storing and visualizing the telemetry data collected with OpenTelemetry. It is built natively on OpenTelemetry and works on the OTLP data formats.

NestJS - Monitoring your NestJS Application using OpenTelemetry and SigNoz

Monitoring your NestJS application is critical for performance management. But setting up monitoring for NestJS applications can get cumbersome requiring multiple libraries and patterns. That's where OpenTelemetry comes in. In this tutorial, we will use SigNoz as a backend. SigNoz is an open-source APM tool that can be used for both metrics and distributed tracing. Let's get started and see how to use OpenTelemetry for a NestJS application.

Prometheus vs Elasticsearch stack - Key concepts, features, and differences

Prometheus and the Elasticsearch stack are both used for monitoring applications. But while Prometheus is primarily meant to monitor metrics, the Elasticsearch stack or the ELK stack is mainly used to collect, store, analyze, and visualize application logs. In this article, we will see what Prometheus and ELK stack is and compare their differences. Prometheus is a time-series metrics monitoring tool. Prometheus enables you to capture time-series data as metrics.

Integrate with AppDynamics | Moogsoft Product Videos & How-Tos

After watching this video, you will be able to set up a template in AppDynamics to send data to Moogsoft, configure a JSON payload to map AppDynamics data to Moogsoft event fields, and define an AppDynamics policy to forward health rule violations and other issues to Moogsoft.

Rust - Implementing OpenTelemetry in a Rust application for performance monitoring

In this tutorial, we will use OpenTelemetry to instrument a PHP application for telemetry data. OpenTelemetry can be used to trace Rust applications for performance issues and bugs. OpenTelemetry is an open-source project under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) that aims to standardize the generation and collection of telemetry data. Telemetry data includes logs, metrics, and traces. More about SigNoz.

PHP - Monitoring a PHP application with OpenTelemetry and SigNoz

In this tutorial, we will use OpenTelemetry to instrument a PHP application for telemetry data. It’s essential to monitor your PHP application for performance issues and bugs. Application owners need good telemetry data from their application in order to monitor it effectively. That’s where OpenTelemetry comes into the picture. OpenTelmetry provides client libraries for many programming languages, including PHP, which can be used to instrument applications.
