Every evolution in technology starts with the people behind it. So understanding the context, roles, and objectives that gave rise to DevOps — and now DevSecOps — isn’t just an exploration of timing and technology; it’s central to how we define organizational success. In this post, I’ll recap a conversation I had with Gareth Rushgrove, Director of Product Management at Snyk, a cybersecurity platform that helps developers identify vulnerabilities in their applications.

RethinkDB is a document-oriented database that enables clients to listen for updates in real time using streams called changefeeds. RethinkDB was built for easy sharding and replication, and its query language integrates with popular programming languages, with no need for clients to parse commands from strings. The open source project began in 2012, and joined the Linux Foundation in 2017.

Understanding how your users experience your application is critical—downtime, broken features, and slow page loads can lead to customer churn and lost revenue. Last year, we introduced Datadog Browser Tests, which enable you to simulate key user journeys and validate that users are able to complete business-critical transactions.

DevOps engineers always need to check processes, increase work efficiency, and optimize operations. The main part of the work is to improve the quality of the product and set up smooth workflows. That’s why you need to control systems and react to downtime as quickly as possible. One of the best ways to do so is to get timely notifications is Teams DevOps Applications. MS Teams is widely used in many companies, so you probably already have it.

Netlify allows developers and businesses to publish modern web projects right from your git repos. There’s nothing to set up & no servers to maintain. This past month, Netlify launched Build Plugins, which allows Netlify users to automate and customize their build processes. We loved what the Netlify team was building and how they were automating tedious tasks for developers. So we built the Sentry Netlify Build Plugin!

The public cloud offers great scalability and flexibility for customers and is a model where service providers make many decisions on their behalf. For example, in cloud service providers like Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Amazon Web Service (AWS) or Microsoft Azure, a cloud load balancer is spun up on demand. The load balancer gets an IP address automatically and your application is ready to be served.

The Ghost blogging platform offers a lean and minimalist experience. And that's why we love it. But unfortunately sometimes, it can be too lean for our requirements. Web performance has become more important and relevant than ever, especially since Google started including it as a parameter in its SEO rankings. We make sure to optimize our websites as much as possible, offering the best possible user experience.
