Launching AppSignal Monitoring for Node.js 1.0

Do you know how many errors your Node.js application had last week? How many users were affected? Which servers were high on CPU/Memory/Disk? If you do know, how many different tools did you have to install, and how many hours you’ve spent configuring all those tools? AppSignal is here to change the way you monitor your apps and simplify your life as a developer. Today, we officially launch the 1.0 version of @appsignal/node.js.

Watchdog surfaces root cause insights and Kubernetes anomalies

Since 2018, Watchdog has provided automatic anomaly detection to notify you of performance issues in your applications.

Introducing the InfluxDB Template UI: Monitoring Made Simple

At InfluxData, we’re obsessed with time to awesome — how quickly can you start working productively with time series data? What can we do to make things better? InfluxDB Templates are a great example of this mindset. Back in April, we announced Templates as a way to package up everything you need to monitor a particular technology — Telegraf configurations and InfluxDB Dashboards, Tasks, Alerts, and related artifacts — into a single configuration file.

Introducing RancherD: A Simpler Tool for Deploying Rancher

As part of Rancher 2.5, we are excited to introduce a new, simpler way to install Rancher called RancherD. RancherD is a single binary you can launch on a host to bring up a Kubernetes cluster bundled with a deployment of Rancher itself. This means you just have one thing to manage: RancherD. Configuration and upgrading are no longer two-step processes where you first have to deal with the underlying Kubernetes cluster and then deal with the Rancher deployment.

Detect Ransomware in Your Data with the Machine Learning Cloud Service

While working with customers over the years, I've noticed a pattern with questions they have around operationalizing machine learning: “How can I use Machine Learning (ML) for threat detection with my data?”, “What are the best practices around model re-training and updates?”, and “Am I going to need to hire a data scientist to support this workflow in my security operations center (SOC)?” Well, we are excited to announce that the SplunkWorks team launched a new add-
