Using SQL Server Integration Services, you can perform all kinds of operations on your company’s data. Through a user-friendly environment with a relatively easy learning curve, you can create a vast range of complex and scalable data-rich solutions. Moreover, all of this is done within an easy-to-use IDE, where coding is often unnecessary for most common tasks. Fitting naturally into Microsoft environments, SSIS is also capable of connecting with diverse data sources and destinations.

Go, often referred to as Golang, is a popular programming language built by Google. Its design and structure help you write efficient, reliable, and high-performing programs. Often used for web servers and rest APIs, Go offers the same performance as other low-level languages like C++ while also making sure the language itself is easy to understand with a good development experience.

SRE, DevOps and Platform Engineering are important concepts in today's world of software development. There are dedicated teams to manage these areas, each with a unique primary focus, set of responsibilities, tools and metrics used to gauge their performance requirements. This article explains SRE, DevOps, and Platform Engineering, including similarities and differences, and, most importantly, how these teams help streamline modern software development, delivery, and maintenance processes.

As your organization scales its applications across many different cloud and SaaS providers, it becomes more challenging to understand your costs. You likely receive your bill at the end of the month, meaning you don’t have real-time visibility into who’s spending what and which services or applications your teams are spending the most on. Changing service costs also makes it difficult to break down your costs and identify what is driving spend, leaving you unable to take action.

One Ruby feature that embodies the principle of “optimizing for programmer happiness” is how the language uses garbage collection (GC) to automatically manage application memory. But as Ruby apps grow, GC itself can become a big consumer of system resources, and this can lead to high CPU usage and performance issues such as increased latency or reduced throughput.

With the increased adoption of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), connected devices and sensors generate vast amounts of data, and you’ll need an effective way to capture, store, and visualize all of it. With effective data visualization and analysis, you can transform raw data into actionable insights and make informed decisions. This post will break down tools like Grafana, Node-RED, and time series databases, including their benefits to your IIoT workload.

In the original post in this series, we discussed the benefits of adopting Workspaces within your Cribl Cloud organization to create isolated Cribl instances for your clients. This time around, we’re going to look at how Cribl Edge can smooth the edges of your security operations. Sorry, I had to say it. I’ll see myself out.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a great platform for DevOps and FinOps teams for several reasons. It provides a wide range of services, supports extensive automation, and includes strong collaboration tools. Despite this, AWS can be a complex ecosystem that makes cloud management challenging. The good news is that AWS also offers a suite of tools to help you apply DevOps best practices and cloud cost optimization.

Ensuring your applications are reliable and performant is more critical now than ever. This need has driven the rise of observability practices, where developers and operations teams closely monitor their applications’ health, performance, and behavior. This is where OpenTelemetry (OTel) comes into play.
