The Sensu Integration Catalog is also an open marketplace that new and existing users can contribute to by sharing Sensu configurations. Continue reading to learn more!
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – April 21, 2022 – Sumo Logic (NASDAQ: SUMO), the SaaS analytics platform to enable reliable and secure cloud-native applications, today announced a new open source offering, the Sensu Integration Catalog. Available today on GitHub, the Integration Catalog is an open, self-service marketplace featuring over 40 turn-key integrations.
Software engineering teams that adopt “as-code” practices, like using configuration files and automated workflows instead of manual configuration and tools, gain major improvements in velocity. But even companies that enjoy the success of as-code practices for development and delivery lag behind in applying them to operational concerns like monitoring and observability.
If you have worked in any part of the application delivery lifecycle long enough, there’s a very good chance you have directly used or been a consumer of Nagios. For a period of time in the early 2000s, it was the go-to solution for basic server monitoring and alerts. Fast forward 20 years and you might be surprised how many organizations still rely on Nagios for mission critical workloads — although not without a fair amount of duct tape and super glue challenges.
JavaScript mutators shine among the improvements in Sensu Go 6.5 – they are both more effective and more efficient at transforming Sensu event data than pipe mutators. This post explores the advantages of JavaScript mutators and includes an example, but first, a brief review. In the Sensu observability pipeline, checks generate events, which Sensu then filters, transforms, and processes. A mutator is a component that transforms the event data.
Sensu’s observability pipeline includes resources for collecting, filtering, transforming, and processing observability data: checks, event filters, mutators, and handlers. These resources and Sensu’s observability pipeline concept are well seasoned and widely used at thousands of companies. However, configuration can be somewhat unintuitive, especially for new users.
Sensu Go 6.5 is another feature-packed release and our first integration with the Sumo Logic Continuous Intelligence Platform. In this post, we’ll review the new features that make Sensu Go 6.5 such a banner release, and give you a sneak peek of what we have planned for future Sensu Go releases.
As part of its recent acquisition of Sensu, Sensu Go is now part of the Sumo Logic Continuous Intelligence Platform, empowering enterprises and developers to quickly get real-time insights from unstructured data for troubleshooting, performance improvement, and security across dynamic multi-cloud infrastructure.
Sensu creator and Developer Advocate Todd Campbell recently wrote about using LDAP authentication for single-sign on (SSO) with Sensu Go. That post provided a great overview of Sensu authentication and included some useful LDAP troubleshooting tips. In this post, we'll focus on the Sensu LDAP implementation and explore how SSO/LDAP users are linked to RBAC "profiles" (i.e. Roles and ClusterRoles). We'll also demonstrate how Sensu supports multiple LDAP providers thanks to its groups_prefix feature.
I am excited to announce that Sensu has entered into an agreement to be acquired by Sumo Logic (Nasdaq: SUMO), the pioneer in continuous intelligence. The acquisition will complement Sensu’s observability strategy by providing customers with a mature and comprehensive Observability Suite including log management, observability data platform, analytics, visualizations, and more.
