Aiven has made life easier for Terraform users since 2017. Join us on a brief stroll down memory lane and learn how and why we got here.

According to Accenture’s “State of Cybersecurity Resilience 2021” report, security attacks have increased 31% from 2021 to 2022. This statistic shows that organizations are not ready with a robust security plan and lack continuous network monitoring, resulting in security loopholes. Efficient network infrastructure is crucial for the success of your enterprise.

Backups are needed for everything from restoring a lost or damaged file to completing an entire disaster recovery. Data backups require a lot of storage space, which takes up more resources and drives costs up. To make the most of this storage, businesses need to optimize their data backups. Fortunately, backup deduplication can help reduce the overall load on data storage and provide other benefits.

Businesses rely on customers. That is a simple truth. Even as organizations develop products and offer multiple services, they look for customers who buy what they sell. For, without the revenue generated by this transaction, how would they grow and develop more products to sell? You could say that customers fulfill a fundamental need for businesses to thrive and flourish. However, as they grow and the number of customers increases, managing them and their expectations can become challenging.

We love to write and ship code to help developers bring their ideas and projects to life. That’s why we’re constantly working on improving our product in sync with developer needs to ensure their happiness and accelerate Time To Awesome. This month is special. We have many features that we think you will love when onboarding or continuing to use InfluxDB. We launched Native Data Collectors this month.

While the cloud offers significant benefits compared to traditional on-premise infrastructure, its inherent elasticity and scalability lead to uncontrolled costs. Cloud costs can be opaque and difficult to analyze — and without some system of identifying the source of costs and how to manage them — they can quickly undermine your profit margins. Since Qovery makes it easy to create on-demand environments, it can drastically grow your cloud costs.

The past ten years marked a significant change in how software teams build and deploy applications. We moved away from bulky, slow, monolithic applications toward lightweight, scalable, distributed service-based applications. Meanwhile, tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and other container platforms helped accelerate this process. Despite this sudden growth, a fundamental question remains: what exactly is a service, and how does it fit into a microservice architecture?

When it comes to building reliable and scalable software, few organizations have as much authority and expertise as Google. Their Site Reliability Engineering Handbook, first published in 2016, details their practices to maintain reliability as Google scaled. But when you have over a million servers running thousands of services across more than twenty data centers, how do you monitor them in a consistent, logical, and relevant way?
