Grafana is everywhere. Almost every DevOps team out there is currently in the process of creating a proof of concept enabling them to implement Grafana into their stack—if they have not already implemented it, that is. Teams are eager to employ Grafana’s highly effective visualizations and dashboards that monitor and track services’ functionality and performance.

Network monitoring is complex, which is why we’re developing a monitoring tool that will drastically increase DevOps productivity. This release is all about improving Netdata’s day-in, day-out performance. We’re working hard to make deploy enhancements that help engineers make faster, smarter decisions about their systems.

“SLO is a favorite word of SREs,” Björn “Beorn” Rabenstein said during his talk at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon in San Diego last week. “Of course, it’s also great for design decisions, to set the right goals, and to set alerting in the right way.

Netdata is made up from agile teams who are deeply committed to improving the usability of our product. We want to respond to our users and introduce in-demand features. Working directly with our community is the best way to make Netdata better. But we face the same the dilemma as all agile teams: How do we do this safely?

Joe Elliott, a backend engineer at Grafana Labs, took the stage in front of a packed house at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon in San Diego to demonstrate a few of the tricks he uses to debug applications live in Kubernetes. The goal is to increase your knowledge of applications in the production environment. Elliott’s techniques are framework agnostic and Linux-specific, and they are most useful in situations where you have a known type of problem and application.

Developing for Google Cloud Run in a hybrid system managed by Anthos isn’t a solo race, it’s a relay between cloud and on-prem. To win, you’ll need an advanced Docker registry that can swiftly pass your containers for Cloud Run functions from one environment to the next. In our example hybrid architecture, you’ll see how JFrog Container Registry can be that reliable relay partner.
