Amplify Artifactory and Distribution Changes Through PagerDuty

When automated software delivery runs smoothly, it can whisper, and quietly attend to itself. But when your delivery and distribution pipeline runs into a problem, it must shout. Boosting the volume of Artifactory and Distribution change events and issues through PagerDuty can help ensure they’re heard by everyone whose job it is to monitor your software delivery pipeline.

Kubernetes Health Check Using Probes

Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration platform that significantly simplifies an application's creation and management. Distributed systems like Kubernetes can be hard to manage, as they involve many moving parts and all of them must work for the system to function. Even if a small part breaks, it needs to be detected, routed and fixed. These actions also need to be automated. Kubernetes allows us to do that with the help of readiness and liveness probes.

Customer Panel: CDI and PROACT Discuss Observability Platforms for MSPs

In this customer panel video Chris Black, CTO Managed Services at CDI, and Per Sedihn, CTO & VP Portfolio & Technology at ProAct, talk about their partnerships with LogicMonitor. Topics include the importance of predictability, automation, and intelligence in observability platforms for Managed Service Providers, specific ways LogicMonitor helped both companies scale quickly, and the future of support for hybrid infrastructures with unified observability.

Automating database cleanup with scheduled pipelines

RESTful API projects often require that developers grant temporary access to a particular resource. Sometimes this happens within a specific interval, such as a few days or months. Revoking permissions when they expire could mean including extra logic during the authentication process or writing a middleware function to attach to the secured endpoint. Or, this logic could be abstracted to a separate part and configured to check and manage permissions at a regular interval.

How to Deploy Mattermost on AWS Via Opta

A common denominator that Mattermost and most corporate applications share is the challenge users can face in successfully setting up a self-hosted instance in their own cloud account. Even with cloud-specific documentation, there’s almost always a hard requirement of understanding said documentation, resolving any errors encountered along the way, and maintaining the application.

Simplifying ESX monitoring with OpManager

IT admins have to adapt to new market trends and networking concepts to meet ever-evolving IT demands. However, solely relying on physical components to support this changing landscape puts them at a disadvantage when it comes to scalability, network distribution, and cost-effectiveness. To remove the strain on physical components such as servers and to keep the capital expense in the optimal range, IT admins rely on virtualization. Most networks have started adopting virtualization even for their most resource-intensive applications.
