Artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI – they may sound similar, but how do they differ? Although these terms are often used interchangeably, generative AI is actually a subtype of AI. At ScienceLogic, we use many different types of AI, from machine learning to generative AI, to analyze IT environments, provide insights to help IT pros take action, automate and streamline workflows, and drive innovation.

We are often asked about areas where customers overspend on Amazon Web Services (AWS). NAT gateway costs are high due to misplaced data transfers and are definitely near the top of our list. This article will walk you through five steps you can take to find out which data transfers you’re overspending on and how you can eliminate those excess charges.

The.NET ecosystem rapidly evolves, equipping developers with the latest tools and frameworks for cross-platform application development.

Testing AWS services is an essential step in creating robust cloud applications. However, directly interacting with AWS during testing can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. The AWS SDK Mock is a JavaScript library designed to simplify this process by allowing developers to mock AWS SDK methods, making it easier to simulate AWS service interactions in a controlled environment. Primarily used with AWS SDK v2, AWS SDK Mock integrates with Sinon.js to mock AWS services like S3, SNS, and DynamoDB.

Staying on top of your third-party Cloud and SaaS service outages is crucial to maintain the reliability of your own applications. If Discord is your communication tool of choice, you can keep up with such incidents by pushing these events to a Discord channel. Discord webhooks allow external applications to send messages to specific channels within a Discord server. This article describes how to integrate Discord as a channel in your IncidentHub account using webhooks.

Let’s start with things we already know - complex projects are inherently hard to debug. The more complicated they are, the harder it is to debug them. The size of the project naturally defines complexity’s lower bounds, but even the smallest projects can become unnecessarily complex and messy if you don’t pay attention to how you structure them. Though we can’t eliminate complexity, we can manage it effectively with the right approach.
