Can Wing Redefine Cloud Development? Exploring the New Open Source Language with Chris Rybicki

Dive into the future of cloud development with Wing, a pioneering open-source programming language, with Chris Rybicki, a seasoned engineer with deep roots in creating developer tools. This session at Navigate North America 24 will shed light on how Wing is poised to transform cloud programming by addressing the complexities and inefficiencies faced by developers today.

Azure Cost Monitoring: Anomaly Detection

In this video, Michael Stephenson demonstrates the anomaly detection feature in Turbo360, focusing on enhancements in cost monitoring. This feature allows users to easily identify deviations in Azure costs and receive alerts when anomalies occur. It simplifies configuration, enabling daily monitoring with alerts sent to specified channels. Anomalies can be detected at both high-level and granular levels, aiding in overall Azure cost management.

Ep. 17: The Code that Connects: Infrastructure, Innovation and How Community Impacts Them

In this episode, Shon sits down with Marino Wijay, a trailblazer in open-source community engineering. Marino, with his rich expertise in Kubernetes, Istio, EBPF, and more, delves into the evolution of networking, infrastructure automation, and the cloud-native landscape. Join us as we uncover the secrets of full-stack networking, CI/CD pipelines, and the principles of infrastructure as code, all while navigating the dynamic challenges and opportunities within the tech industry.

An Expert Guide On GCP Cost Monitoring

Research firm, IDC, published a study in early February 2024 predicting that Google Cloud Platform (GCP) customers break even after just 10 months. Moreover, the study, The Business Value of Google Cloud IaaS, reported that after migrating to GCP, the participants were on track to achieve a 318% ROI in five years. Here’s the thing. Achieving these milestones requires a robust GCP cost monitoring and optimization plan.

Where to automate resilience testing in your SDLC

When organizations begin to deploy resilience testing or Chaos Engineering, there’s a natural question: can we integrate this with our CI/CD pipeline or release automation tools? After all, you’re likely running unit, performance, and integration tests already—is resiliency different? The short answer is yes—to both. Integration is possible, but resiliency is different, so automation is a nuanced conversation.

From Reaction to Action: Accelerating Incident Response through Automation

In the Digital Age, IT incidents are an unavoidable aspect of business operations. From hardware failures to security breaches, these disruptions can wreak havoc on business continuity and user experience. Managing these incidents effectively requires a timely, systematic approach encompassing detection, prioritization, resolution, and communication. Traditional incident response methods often fall short, resulting in costly delays and inefficiencies.

Reliable Backups in a Multi-Cloud World

Proper backups are universally acknowledged as essential, yet they grow increasingly tedious and prone to error as DevOps complexity escalates. While some managed database services offer automated backup solutions, the scope of your backup requirements is likely to expand as the business and products scale. There's a considerable chance you'll find yourself hosting your own databases or stateful services, a task that can seem daunting in its demand for precision and reliability.
