The last fifteen years have seen huge increases in developer productivity for several reasons, including the arrival of open source into the mainstream and the ability to better emulate target environments. In addition, the process of resetting a development environment back to the last known stable version has been vastly improved by Vagrant and then Docker.
For nearly 10 years, AWS and Sumo Logic have been the perfect pairing for businesses going through their digital transformation journey. AWS provides the best technology to help companies with their digital transformation, while Sumo Logic provides continuous intelligence and insights to monitor, run and secure those applications on AWS.
We are excited to announce the beta release of Sumo Logic’s Archive Intelligence Service, which enables customers to forward logs directly from Sumo Logic’s installed collector to their own, self-managed AWS S3 buckets. This service gives users the ability to reliably gather and economically store log data which may not be needed for immediate analysis or operations, but is still important to keep for later use.
Security is a top concern for any enterprise to move their applications and workloads to the public cloud. AWS offers a broad selection of native security tools and as our Continuous Intelligence Report noted, AWS customers are using several of these to improve the security of their AWS environment. However, it can be overwhelming to know where to start and how to deploy best practices for detecting security misconfigurations caused by human errors and attacks from external sources.
AWS offers more than 150 discrete services, spanning compute, storage, database, network, and identity management to name a few. Earlier this year we published our Continuous Intelligence Report in which we surveyed Sumo Logic customers on how broadly they used the various AWS services. We found that the median number of different services most orgs use was 15.
Cloud Run for Anthos allows you to run stateless containers on Anthos GKE on Google Cloud, on-premises and multi-cloud environments. Cloud Run is serverless: it enables you to run requests or event-driven stateless workloads without having to worry about servers. It abstracts away all infrastructure management such as provisioning, configuring, and managing servers, so you focus only on writing code.
In the second installment of our Amazon Redshift series, we covered the different ways you can monitor the performance and disk space of your Redshift servers using tools in AWS. In this final post, we will discuss how you can take your monitoring and logging efforts up a couple of notches by using Sumo Logic with Amazon Redshift.
This is the third and last in a series of articles on Amazon CloudTrail. In the first part of the series, we introduced AWS CloudTrail and how it works and saw where and how it saves its data. We then learned how to query CloudTrail logs in the second part of the series where we used Amazon Athena to find meaningful information from large volumes of CloudTrail data.
In part 2 of our AWS S3 Monitoring series, we covered the basics of AWS S3 logging, why it’s important to log all the information in your cloud environment, and also the benefits of monitoring those logs. Now, AWS offers some great tools for monitoring and log querying, but if you and your team want to take it to the next level, Sumo Logic is there for your needs.
Nowadays, it’s not uncommon to see enterprise IT leaders in a situation that seems like a catch 22. Oftentimes, they are expected to be involved in making data-driven decisions for augmenting productivity and profitability. Paradoxically, they are preoccupied with what they consider as their core responsibilities – applying best practices to safeguard the IT infrastructure and expediting investigations when incidents occur.
