Amazon Security Lake is a new service from Amazon Web Services (AWS) that is designed to help organizations improve their security posture by automating the collection, normalization, and consolidation of security-related log and event data from integrated AWS services and third-party services (Source Partners). By centralizing all the security data in a single location, organizations can gain greater visibility and identify potential threats more quickly.

In the rapidly evolving digital landscape companies are facing an increasing number of challenges in maintaining their IT infrastructure, and ensuring application stability. It is critical to stay on top of all the information to ensure the health of the organization and the business side of it. One of the ways to achieve visibility is to use a log monitoring tool to centralize the log data coming from each application and infrastructure element.

Kubernetes is a popular open-source container orchestration platform. It is highly configurable and feature-rich, but it also requires a deep understanding of containerization. When you are running Kubernetes in production, you need to account for cluster monitoring and logging, governance, and security. In this article, you will learn about Kubernetes security, including pro tips to help you handle architecture concerns, dependencies, and container vulnerabilities.

Networks today span the world and provide many connections between geographically disparate data centers, and public and private clouds. This creates a variety of network management problems. If your network is not working properly, it can be very difficult or even impossible to get the most productive or correct operation of your applications. A sophisticated network requires constant monitoring using the right tools and creating a network performance monitoring strategy.

When you set up on-premise digital infrastructure, it is crucial to enable your devices to communicate with each other. The devices on your network should be able to send and receive data packets to handle requests and send responses back to callers. One of the components that allow data transmission to the proper destination is the network switch. The network switch plays an important role in distributing data packets to devices.

There’s a new term on the technology block: Applied Observability. Gartner estimates that 70% of organizations will successfully adopt applied observability capabilities in coming years. The most common use cases of applied observability will include: But exactly what is applied observability? We’ve got the answers and more here for you to get a full understanding. Read on!

Today, everyone wants data to drive decision-making. Product analytics has emerged as a crucial tool for businesses to optimize their products and create exceptional customer experiences. In fact, 64% of respondents in one survey have achieved their goals through product analytics. But what exactly is product analytics, and how can it benefit your organization?

When you send an email or load a website, you probably never think about how the data gets from your computer to the server that needs to process it. But something does have to decide how the data will move across the vast expanse of the Internet – and, in particular, which of the virtually infinite number of potential routes your data will take as it moves from your device to a server and back again.

One of the value propositions of Upsun is to offer greener hosting. By choosing cloud hosting instead of on-premise hosting, you are selecting a greener way to host your applications and websites. In addition, when creating a project, you have the option to choose the greenest region to host it. How?

In a recent meetup I hosted alongside Kunal Kushwaha, we discussed Cilium, an eBPF-powered open-source cloud-native networking solution that offers security, observability, scalability, and superior performance. Throughout this blog I will explore how the increased usage of Kubernetes has led to the need for advanced networking, security, and observability solutions. This will allow us to take a closer look at how Cilium can benefit Kubernetes users.
