If you are someone who has explored monitoring and observability solutions for your program, New Relic One is hard to miss. It is a comprehensive monitoring and management application initially started by Lew Cirne in 2008. Then on, it expanded its product base to include over twenty products ranging from front-end to backend, infrastructure, logs, and even vulnerability addressing. Today, it is one of the most successful analytics platforms for enterprises dealing with data.

Atlassian is shutting down OpsGenie. New sales stopped on June 4, 2025. Complete shutdown happens on April 5, 2027. Atlassian wants you to migrate to Jira Service Management (JSM). But like many OpsGenie users, you probably have questions. What is JSM? How does it handle alerting, escalation policies, and on-call schedules? What automation options does it have? Is it the right fit? And more. This blog breaks down everything you need to know.

Have you ever stood before a critical piece of network infrastructure, knowing it desperately needs an upgrade, yet felt a wave of paralysis wash over you? You’re not alone. It’s a common feeling when facing a project as significant as a data center migration or a move to a modern leaf-spine architecture.

You can cut your log costs by removing repetitive, low-value logs early and keeping only the parts that genuinely help you understand issues. Modern systems generate logs far faster than you expect. Even when your workload stays stable, infrastructure components, retries, and background workers continue producing a steady stream of repeated entries.

Today’s attack surface is dynamic; it could be anything - a cloud bucket spun up overnight, a third-party supplier breach, or an orphaned API endpoint buried in dev pipelines. The new reality is: All of this runs across a hybrid infrastructure that security teams are still manually stitching together. It also can’t help but get even worse for surface attacks, as insider risks now almost blend with persistent external threats.

On November 18th, 2025, a large Cloudflare outage briefly broke big chunks of the internet. For several hours, users around the world were greeted with 500 errors, including platforms like X, ChatGPT, Spotify, and many others that run behind Cloudflare’s network. At UptimeRobot, we sit in a slightly unusual spot during events like this: So when Cloudflare has a bad day, we see it twice: once in the alerts we send to our customers, and again in how it affects parts of our own infrastructure.

Having just returned from the 2025 EDUCAUSE Annual Conference in Nashville, I want to share some insights on the future of campus IT from the higher education technology leaders in attendance. Every year, this conference provides an opportunity for technology providers and higher ed professionals to connect and explore the latest innovations in higher education technology. Two themes emerged as critical priorities.

Every growing engineering organization eventually faces the seemingly impossible decision between building a custom solution or buying one off the shelf. It’s a debate that often (and incorrectly) ends by choosing whichever option is less expensive. However, it’s become clear that solving the build vs. buy puzzle boils down to understanding what you want to be good at and whether your internal build is actually unique.
