Like all good things in infrastructure, picking whether or not to self-host your database is full of trade-offs.

I’m thrilled to say that OpenSearch has reached general availability (GA) with the release of version 1.0. This release represents a significant milestone and noteworthy accomplishment for a new open source initiative that was only launched a few months ago.

I’m a big fan of Saturday Night Live, and one of my most favorite skits is from the 1994/1995 season called Bathroom Monkey with Janeane Garafalo. It’s a fake television ad of a woman sitting on her couch, talking about how difficult it is to keep her bathroom clean. She describes this new product she discovered called “Bathroom Monkey” and how the Bathroom Monkey system can keep her entire bathroom clean for up to eight whole months—and she is loving it.
When I started at Ivanti, I asked around to get a diagram of process flows and communication flow for Endpoint Manager (EPM). I was given two different diagrams that were each about 10 years old and not customer ready. While not much of the communication had changed, some had making these outdated and irrelevant. I decided to take these diagrams, update them, and put them into a simple and modern diagram that would be customer ready for posting online.
