Discover how to build a technology infrastructure to get the best of both open source and proprietary software The debate on the cohabitation of open source software (OSS) and proprietary software has persisted as long as both have existed. OSS, designed for unrestricted access and usage, and proprietary software, its opposite, have often been positioned as opponents in the technology arena. However, the reality is far from this either/or dynamic.

CPU usage is one of the most common metrics used in observability and cloud computing. It’s for a good reason: CPU usage represents the amount of work a system is performing, and if it’s near 100% capacity, adding more work could make the system unstable. The solution is to scale - add more hosts with more CPU capacity, migrate some of your workloads to the new host, and split the traffic between them using a load balancer.

Noisy monitors can lead to alert fatigue, which frustrates engineers and hinders innovation. With our patent-pending anomaly detection capabilities built on the power of AI, you can eliminate 60-90% of alerts. A unique differentiator, Sumo Logic’s alerts can also trigger one or more playbooks to drive auto-diagnosis or remediation and accelerate time to recovery for application incidents. Faster issue remediation means engineers can focus more time on development and releasing software.

In today’s digitally-driven world, organizations rely heavily on software applications to streamline services, provide operations, engage customers, and drive innovation through digital transformation. Software has also become the lynchpin for securing an entire business’ services and keeping them up and running. Yet, this omnipresent force comes with its own set of challenges.

What might you accomplish if you could easily search your data lakes without paying to move the data first? The most likely outcome is that you address a critical security incident quicker than ever, save your organization millions of dollars, get a promotion, and then go down in history as the best-looking, most talented analyst to have searched a storage bucket.

So, you've invested in a high-bandwidth Internet line for your business, complete with a service level agreement (SLA) ensuring consistent uptime. Sounds foolproof, right? Not quite. Despite meeting the SLA requirements for uptime, you might encounter performance issues severe enough to disrupt your cloud-based applications. Sure, technically, the connection is still up, but it's practically unusable. The frustrating part?

From the perspective of network administrator and operator, the fundamental requirements for network applications are the same regardless of the environment they are running in. They need to have their network communication fast, reliable and secure. To meet these requirements, we need to have relevant data about the application traffic.

Phrases like “networks are the backbone of a business” are now ubiquitous, finding their way into many network-related blogs. We are not here to say the same thing again. Instead, we’re here to discuss managing your IP address space within OpManager. This blog explains how adding the IP address manager (IPAM) and switch port mapper (SPM) module within OpManager will enhance your monitoring game. Keep reading and we will tell you how to enable the add-on for free.

‘Manual deployment is (should be) a sin.’ Well, calling manual deployment a sin may sound strong, but consider this: building the ultimate development pipeline demands a focus on automation. Although the selection of a deployment method depends on the specific needs and requirements of a project or environment, can you really deny the power of automated deployment? There's a better way.
