Automating tests and deployments with infrastructure (CI/CD) more productive. Instead of managing multiple tools and manual processes, all they have to do is commit the code to a code repository. Not everyone on a project visits the CI/CD system, but they may need to know when the build process fails or is successful. This is where a proper handshake between CI/CD systems and project management tools such as Jira shines.

In this blog we have always been eager for fights or competitions of whatever we please. We are like that, like fierce pokemon trainers who want to finally find out who has the greatest capabilities to win. They have praised us for it, they have hated us for it, but it does not matter, the point here is not having fun, but to give the most complete information about the litigants and the battle, so that the user can see closely who they should choose in the future.

This blog post is part of our data centre networking series: In the previous blogs, we covered the architecture and main drivers behind software-defined networking. In this one, we discuss the impact of softwarisation on the other important data centre building blocks, culminating in software-defined data centres (SDDC).

Modern data centers and labs are growing in density and complexity as IT devices require more and more power to racks. As such, many data center and lab managers deploy overhead busways for their reduced installation costs and better flexibility, scalability, reliability, and aesthetics. However, without a software solution to monitor and manage your busways, you likely aren’t getting the full value out of them.

In this episode Jason is joined by Gustavo Franco, Senior Engineering Manager at VMWare, to chat about chaos in the Gustavo’s early days. Gustavo reflects on Googles early disaster recovery practices, to the contemporary SRE movement.

When monitoring a large IT infrastructure, there are multiple aspects you need to keep under control. Doing things manually and relying on people to ensure the infrastructure reliability can be a wrong decision and mislead you when resolving issues or troubleshooting problems. All these complexities faced while managing a large ecosystem can seem hard to overcome, but in reality, they can be handled.
