As we’ve talked about before, our app is a monolith: all our backend code lives together and gets compiled into a single binary. One of the reasons I prefer monolithic architectures is that they make it much easier to focus on shipping features without having to spend much time thinking about where code should live and how to get all the data you need together quickly. However, I’m not going to claim there aren’t disadvantages too. One of those is compile times.

As enterprises grapple with the evolving landscape of security threats, the need to safeguard internal networks from the broader internet is increasingly important. In environments with restricted internet access, it can be difficult to manage software updates in an easy, reliable way. When managing devices in the field, change management and compliance policies can introduce even more complexity to the update process. You can solve these challenges using snaps and the Snap Store Proxy.

Naturally, our own platform forms the backbone of our cloud cost savings strategy. And before releasing any new feature, we try it out ourselves to see how well it helps us manage our own SaaS costs. If it works well for us, that means there’s already one satisfied user in the world — and there will likely be more!

PCE is a performance metric that evaluates the effective utilization of power in data centers. It measures the ratio of IT equipment power to the total power consumed, encompassing all aspects of the facility’s operations, including cooling and lighting. Unlike traditional metrics, PCE provides a comprehensive assessment of how power is used within data centers, aiming to optimize the actual power capacity available.

Time and time again we hear the same statements from FinOps teams with respect to what is holding back optimization of wasteful cloud resource consumption. Engineers and App Owners are interested in helping but stop short at actually taking actions to reduce that waste. There are many reasons for this main sticking point when it comes to application owners and developers taking action.

Let's face it! Kubernetes is the standard for container orchestration, reshaping how we deploy and manage applications for the last 8 years - do you even remember when you run "docker run " on an application server? 😁. However, it's crucial to recognize that Kubernetes was never initially designed with the everyday developer in mind.

In this article, we will thoroughly address RMM Software (Remote Monitoring and Management Software) and its essential role for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). We will explain the core functions of RMM, from remote monitoring to efficient management of client devices, highlighting its key advantages such as reducing labor costs and improving productivity.
