Using Automation to Transform IT From Cost Center to Value Driver

In today’s digital age, IT has become the central component of business operations. Yet, despite its critical importance, skilled technicians continue to find their hands tied by time-consuming manual tasks. And, while many of these tasks are essential, they do virtually nothing to drive innovation. Introducing automation into the mix can free up IT talent to focus their skills on more important business initiatives – particularly those that drive change and generate revenue.

How Gremlin's reliability score works

In order to make reliability improvements tangible, there needs to be a way to quantify and track the reliability of systems and services in a meaningful way. This "reliability score" should indicate at a glance how likely a service is to withstand real-world causes of failure without having to wait for an incident to happen first. Gremlin's upcoming feature allows you to do just that.

Automate deployment of ASP.NET Core apps to Heroku

Known for its cross-platform compatibility and elegant structure, ASP.NET Core is an open-source framework created by Microsoft for building modern web applications. With it, development teams can build monolithic web applications and RESTful APIs of any size and complexity. Thanks to CircleCI’s improved infrastructure and support for Windows platforms and technology, setting up an automated deployment process for an ASP.NET Core application has become even easier.

How to Avoid Getting Your Pod OOMKilled

In this blog, understand why your pod has OOMKilled errors when provisioning Kubernetes resources and how Speedscale can aid with automated testing. When creating production-level applications, enterprises want to ensure the high availability of services. This often results in a lengthy development process that requires extensive testing for the applications or a new release.

SCP Port: Secure Copy Protocol Definition & Examples

The SCP port has proven to be a very useful tool for SysAdmins. In short, the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) is a method for securely transferring computer files between a local host and a remote host, or between two remote hosts. It is based on the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. In other words, SCP servers help you transfer files to and from servers, computers, and other networking devices using a secure SSH tunnel.

How to define and measure the reliability of a service

More and more teams are moving away from monolithic applications and towards microservice-based architectures. As part of this transition, development teams are taking more direct ownership over their applications, including their deployment and operation in production. A major challenge these teams face isn't in getting their code into production (we have containers to thank for that), but in making sure their services are reliable.
