It seems like email has been around forever, and we all take it for granted. For many of us, it has been forever, for email has been around since the 1960s in various forms.

Uptrends now supports IMAP server monitoring.
Real User Monitoring, or RUM, is a type of monitoring technology for digital businesses that analyzes customers’ digital experiences by looking at exactly how online visitors are interacting with a website or application, analyzing everything from page load events to AJAX requests to frontend application crashes.

Since joining Rancher Labs to head up the Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore region, my day revolves around discussing containers/Kubernetes use cases and adoption with many of the top enterprises, DevOps groups, and executives in the area.

FaaS services such as AWS Lambda take care of many security aspects - networking, firewall, OS updates, etc. Make no mistake, though: application-level security is still fully on our hands! Do we have all the information needed to secure our serverless apps? Enters critical logging!
Within a Linux network or development system, launching a limited set of applications or services (often known as microservices) in a self-sustaining container or sandboxed environment is sometimes necessary. A container enables administrators to decouple a specific set of software applications from the operating system and have them run within a clean, minimal, and isolated Linux environment of their own.
“What??? Fully end of life by April, you say? As in, ‘in-six-weeks’ April? Well, there go my weekends for a while. When will we ever get this right?” We’ve all been there at some point, completely under water, late on key projects, having to fight to get our SLA and security KPIs green and completely forget that time is running and now, again, core components are nearing their end of life.
