TCP monitoring works behind the scenes, ensuring smooth data transfers and reliable communication between devices. Without it, troubleshooting slow connections or dropped packets becomes a guessing game. In this blog, we’ll break down why TCP monitoring is crucial, how it works, and some key insights to help optimize your network performance and speed up troubleshooting.

Things are changing. Technology differences between serverless and container-based systems are rapidly blurring. In 2020, Amazon Web Services (AWS) enabled AWS Lambda to package and deploy functions as container images instead of bundling all of a function’s code and dependencies in a.zip file. Today, more organizations are increasingly deploying Lambda functions as Docker container images. These companies want to reap the benefits of serverless computing, containers, and container orchestration.

Whether managing a web application, monitoring an API, or tracking system performance, error logs are your first defense in troubleshooting and improving your systems.
