Monitoring your Heroku stack helps you understand the performance of your application and infrastructure. You can identify bottlenecks, slow-performing queries, or resource-intensive processes and optimize them. Monitoring also allows you to detect issues or anomalies in real-time. By setting up alerts based on predefined thresholds, you can be notified as soon as something goes wrong, enabling you to address the issue before it affects users.

Often we receive a series of alerts that get auto-resolved within a short period of time. Such alerts are called flapping or transient alerts. In this blog, we'll explore Auto Pause transient alert (APTA) feature that detects flapping alerts and temporarily pause incident notifications hence reducing alert fatigue.

Notifications are designed to be annoying. Think of your phone buzzing in a quiet room: it demands your attention, lighting up your screen and making noise so you look at it. A notification is supposed to pull you away from whatever you’re working on. They can be useful, but they can also be a nuisance.

Why make a migration from Ansible to Puppet — or in some cases, start with Puppet over Ansible right out of the gate? In this blog, we’ll explore some common reasons that organizations say they chose Puppet over Ansible, citing specific use case examples around the functionality of each platform.

Monitoring Redis instances is essential for maintaining performance, reliability, and security. It allows you to detect issues early, optimize resources, and provide a seamless experience for both developers and end-users. Monitoring your database allows you to track key performance metrics such as memory usage, CPU usage, and query response times. By analyzing these metrics, you can identify performance bottlenecks, optimize queries, and ensure that Redis is operating efficiently.

As a modern software engineer or CTO, you’re responsible for building, delivering, and maintaining high-quality software solutions at scale. Yet, software programs have grown increasingly complex over time, requiring meticulous work. The competition threatens to take your subscribers every billing cycle if you don’t constantly innovate, too. Customers want more, bigger, and better upgrades and updates.

The spike in pressure among the financial services industry is one that today’s organizations have to get in front of. When digital transformation, the demands for modernization, and fierce competition began in recent years, proactive approaches became the requirement. Companies that still react to change are likely to struggle in the current, trailblazing landscape, and they may even fail to reach business-critical goals.

This growing connectivity method opens users to a whole new world of network capabilities, and is becoming more essential than ever before.
