As more businesses embrace digital transformation, cloud computing is becoming more relevant each day. Cloud technology provides the flexibility, scalability, and agility modern organizations need to stay competitive, transforming everything from daily operations to customer experiences. However, as companies expand their use of the cloud, managing these complex environments is proving to be a real challenge. What is cloud monitoring?

IT Operations teams must detect and address incidents quickly to ensure efficient operations and reliable IT infrastructures. As organizations grow and scale their service offerings, their IT environments inevitably become more complex. Filtering through alerts becomes increasingly challenging due to excessive noise and a lack of end-to-end visibility. As a result, IT operations teams are forced to escalate issues more frequently.

Customers evaluate a modern observability and monitoring solution by the ROI they get, self-monitoring capabilities ultimately improve scalability and quality. The value of any observability solution lies in its ability to proactively detect and alert customers to issues before they cause a business-impacting outage. IT infrastructures and applications can fail in many different ways.

At Coroot, we started using eBPF to give users insights into their system performance without needing them to change code or redeploy services. This approach not only makes setup easier but also ensures full visibility, even for third-party and legacy services. To truly achieve this, though, the tool needs to support a wide range of application protocols. Coroot has long supported popular ones like HTTP, gRPC, Postgres, MySQL, Redis, Memcached, MongoDB, Kafka, and Cassandra.

When it comes to keeping your apps running smoothly and your users happy, the Apdex score is like a cheat sheet for understanding how well you're doing. But what is it really, and why should you care? Let’s break it down into something that makes sense.

In software development, making sure your apps perform well is key. Performance issues, hidden delays, and wasted resources can quickly hurt user experience and increase costs. That’s where OpenTelemetry profiling steps in to help. In this blog, we’ll break down what OpenTelemetry profiling is, why it’s important, and how you can use it to optimize your applications.

Are you trying to wire your React application to Honeycomb, but running into some challenges understanding how our instrumentation works with React? In this article, I’ll lay out approaches for wiring Honeycomb to client-side only React so you can ingest your telemetry into Honeycomb and take advantage of the Web Launchpad. This telemetry sends semantically-named attributes, and can be used with any OTLP destination. These examples use a React application created with Vite.

Let's Encrypt recently announced they will discontinue their certificate expiration notification emails on June 4, 2025. This decision marks the end of a long-standing feature that many organizations have relied upon to manage their SSL certificates.

In the fast-paced world of IT operations, myths often masquerade as truths, leading organizations down inefficient and costly paths. Let’s look at five of the most pervasive myths and explore why modern solutions like PagerDuty Operations Cloud are essential for thriving in today’s complex IT environments. Myth 1: Kubernetes is self-healing, and no other tools are required. The Reality: While Kubernetes is often touted as a self-healing platform, this is only partially true.

A comprehensive understanding of the computers, servers, routers, switches, and other devices that form the foundation of your IT environment is critical to mitigate the risk of downtime and security vulnerabilities. Let’s explore some key factors to remember when choosing the right solution to monitor your network devices.
