The Apache HTTP Server (Apache HTTPd) is one of the most popular open source web servers available. HTTPd was also the first project developed by the Apache Software foundation which now supports hundreds of well known projects including Kafka, Cassandra and Hadoop. Netdata has a public demo space where you can explore different monitoring use-cases. Check out the Apache demo room to explore and interact with the charts and metrics described here.

Throughout KubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA 2022, our team was able to speak to over 100 people from the cloud-native community to learn more about their thoughts and experience of the event. This blog will explore what the community thought was the hot topic of discussion at KubeCon + CNC NA 2022, which includes topics such as security, cost, and developer experience. Check out the full video below.

Engineering teams use a lot of single-domain monitoring tools. In fact, the average team manages and maintains 16 monitoring tools — and up to 40 — according to Moogsoft’s State of Availability Report. While IT leaders select and implement these tools to save teams time, our research finds they do quite the opposite. Engineers spend far and away more time on monitoring than they do on any other task — innovative, value-creating tasks included.

In this podcast, our panellists discuss the foundations that any team needs to put in place when designing their incident management process. Starting from the basics of defining what we really mean by an incident, to how to set your severity levels, roles and statuses, Chris and Pete share their tips for building solid foundations to run your incidents.

Why do some organizations excel in streamlining their database operations and applications development while others find it immensely challenging? Why can some database teams embrace agility while others take months of cycles to deploy even a single line of code? What secret sauce can allow some database teams to work smarter (not harder), streamline database development lifecycles better, get to deployment faster, and create an overall stronger alignment across departments?

As a former incident responder and now as a responder advocate for FireHydrant, I’ve seen the “build vs. buy” debate play out many times. In fact, I even supported the tool that former employers used for managing incidents for years before they decided to buy (more on that in a future blog post).

History will look back on this period of the 21st century as a pioneering, resilient, and excitingly disruptive time. We’re deep into a dynamic era as the cloud, Artificial Intelligence (AI), IT automation, and digital transformation converge to drive challenges and dazzling opportunities. The sheer force and potential of AI—coupled with unprecedented security risks and ongoing infrastructure advances will shape enterprises for years to come.
