OpenTracing was an open-source project developed to provide vendor-neutral APIs and instrumentation for distributed tracing across a variety of environments. As it is often extremely difficult for engineers to see the behaviour of requests when they are working across services in a distributed environment, OpenTracing aimed to provide a solution to heighten observability.

If you asked your engineering team how well they can handle all of the security and observability data they’re managing, would you get a resounding “Yeah boss, we’re good to go!” in response? Possible, but unlikely. Chances are they feel like they’re stuck on a boat that’s taking on water, spending their day using tiny buckets to scoop some of it out, with no way to plug any of the leaks.
InfoSec, like any other aspect of IT, is a matter of three factors coming together: people, process and technology. All of these factors cost time and money in some way. The truth is, there are very few organizations out there who can supply their own security programs, staff, technology, processes and everything needed for InfoSec to an efficient degree. Everyone has to compromise in some way.
Alerting has been a fundamental part of operations strategy for the past decade. An entire industry is built around delivering valuable, actionable alerts to engineers and customers as quickly as possible. We will explore what’s missing from your alerts and how Coralogix Flow Alerts solve a fundamental problem in the observability industry.
As companies evolve and grow, so do the number of applications, databases, devices, cloud locations, and users. Often, this comes from teams adding tools instead of replacing them. As security teams solve individual problems, this tool adoption leads to disorganization, digital chaos, data silos, and information overload. Even worse, it means organizations have no way to correlate data confidently. By centralizing log data, you can overcome the data silos that tool proliferation creates.
IT roles have never been more in demand and IT salaries have never been higher, according to recent reports and data sources. Whether you are hiring, looking for a career change, or simply work in tech, it’s important to stay up-to-date on the state of employment in the industry. This blog post will review, roundup, and summarize some of the latest trends for IT salaries and demand by role and location (among other variables) to help you get a clear view of the landscape.
We’ve reached the point in the DevOps transformation where efficiency and automation are no longer the highest objectives. The next step is engineering past automation and towards fully autonomous, self-healing systems. If you aren’t conversing about building this type of resilience into your systems and applications, there’s never been a better time than now to start.
