Application performance is one of the most important factors in determining your brand reputation, revenue, and authenticity in the virtual marketplace. There are several ways to monitor your application’s health and performance. Some choose to do it the traditional way - manually. Others prefer to adopt an automated solution capable of monitoring an application 24/7 and producing useful visualizations all by itself.

The Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools make managing your applications simple and easy, ensuring that your business software performs at its best. It's one thing to keep track of IT infrastructure and networks, but it's frequently the applications that demand the greatest care. It's not just the fact that there could be a lot of them; it's also the fact that they tend to update regularly, which can lead to software conflicts and unexpected hardware issues.

When we hear the term ‘embedded analytics’, most people think of business intelligence. The concept of embedded analytics refers to the integration of analytic content and capabilities within a business process application. The business benefits of embedding analytics into a business process include increased visibility, more effective strategic planning and accelerated time to value.

Modern web applications can be complex. A typical application stack usually involves several components spread across different layers. For example, HTML5 and AngularJS can make up a site’s front end. User inputs and queries from the front end can be passed on to containerized microservices running on a middleware, which in turn could pass the queries to a back-end database. Systems like WAFs and LDAP servers can be used for security and authentication.

In this article, we dig deeper into why we decided to extend support for ClickHouse as a storage backend for SigNoz and the efficiency gains we achieved using it.

In an earlier blog, I provided an introduction to AIOps. AIOps is the application of Artificial Intelligence to IT Operations. Many people misunderstand AIOps as replacing or mimicking human intelligence. This is not what AIOps is about. Rather, AIOps seeks to apply algorithms to solve specific problems, often much faster, much more accurately, and at much higher scale than a human ever could solve the problem.

Introduction Since its introduction in 2014, Kubernetes has become the de-facto standard for deploying and scaling containers for cloud deployments and on-premises environments. Initially, it required a DevOps/SRE team to build, deploy, and maintain the Kubernetes deployment in the cloud. Now, all major cloud vendors provide a managed Kubernetes offering, freeing up teams to focus on managing and scaling the application instead of the infrastructure.

In all internal and external conversations that I’ve had in the recent weeks, almost always the discussion veers towards AIOps. This blog summarizes research that I’ve done into understanding AIOps – what it is, why analysts and customers are so interested in this technology and what are some of the benefits that it offers.
