The Importance of Traces for Modern APM [Part 2]

In part 1, we looked at how the design plan of traditional monitoring technologies depended heavily on properties of the systems that were intended to monitor and then showed how those properties began to be undermined by an increase in complexity, an increase which can ultimately be captured by the concept of entropy. In this part, we will explore how increased entropy forces us to rethink what is required for monitoring.

RED Monitoring: Rate Errors, and Duration

The RED method is a streamlined approach for monitoring microservices and other request-driven applications, focusing on three critical metrics: Rate, Errors, and Duration.

Log Wrangling: Leveraging Logs to Optimize Your System

Today, we delve into the art and science of Log Wrangling. This process involves corralling, organizing, and deriving maximum benefits from your logs like handling unpredictable livestock. Why do we do this? Managing logs can be challenging, but we can transform them from a daunting task with the correct approach into a beneficial tool… Graylog.

Evolving Cribl's Own Observability Practice at Blazing Speed

Cribl.Cloud has grown substantially since its launch, and our observability practice has developed in parallel. Gone are the early days of manageable logs and metrics. As we continue to grow, that problem will become even more challenging. We used Splunk internally, a well-used internal system, as our primary event management system. With Cribl Edge nodes deployed across our entire cloud fleet, we collect logs and metrics and send them to Cribl Stream for processing and routing.

How Observability Enhances Financial Services

Financial services and financial technology (FinTech) companies often depend upon complex infrastructure to handle their financial data. Security and compliance are paramount for these organizations, for gaining full visibility into the health and performance of these services to guarantee security is essential.
