Observability: How to Boost Gaming Performance in 5 Ways

For a game to provide the best user experience, certain elements come into play. These factors can be hardware components in the user’s computer, like the CPU and GPU, operating system settings, or specific game settings. In fact, if there’s misalignment between these components and a game’s intensity, performance issues can crop up. The most common performance issues in gaming include frame rate drops, input lag, stuttering, rendering issues and network latency.

Best Cloud Monitoring Tools (Open Source & More)

Cloud monitoring tools are utilized to gather an extensive range of metrics and logs from cloud resources and services. Some commonly monitored metrics include CPU utilization, memory usage, network traffic, disk I/O, latency, and response time. By monitoring these metrics, among others, it becomes possible to gain insights into resource utilization, identify performance bottlenecks, and ensure that the infrastructure operates according to expectations.

Splunk Sustainability Toolkit V2 Doubling Down on IT Sustainability and Beyond

Did you see the global COVID pandemic coming when you heard about the first cases? Probably not, even if you tried. As the physicist Albert A. Bartlett pointed out back in 1976, human beings tend to think in linear terms. The effects of large changes in scale are frequently beyond our powers of perception and even our imagination. It is the same challenge highlighted today by the cumulative effects of climate change and the subsequent tipping points.
