The recent ServiceNow Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate error disrupted operations for hundreds of organizations causing widespread connectivity failures. IT operations stalled, developers hit roadblocks, and businesses across industries felt the impact. The culprit? An expired SSL certificate. While these disruptions highlight the importance of SSL monitoring, they point to a deeper issue: trust.

Today’s dynamic multi-cloud ecosystems receive logs from countless sources. Relying on custom collectors and integrations can lead to tool sprawl, pipeline breakdowns, and time-consuming maintenance. Enter Sumo Logic’s Universal Connector, your streamlined solution for collecting logs from any source. With seamless API integrations, Universal Connector simplifies log collection and eliminates the overhead of building custom pipelines.

When it comes to logging tools, organizations often face a classic tech dilemma: build vs. buy. Should you invest in a robust, ready-to-use SaaS solution like Sumo Logic or dive into the customization rabbit hole with a PaaS option like Elastic? It's a debate as old as time—well, as old as software, anyway. Let's break it down in a way that actually makes sense, and hopefully, it’ll spark less drama than the pineapple-on-pizza debate.

Ensuring a seamless player experience is critical for game developers, and yet unanticipated crashes and performance issues continue to harm games’ reputations and disrupt player engagement. To address this developers need proactive error monitoring across multiple platforms. Luckily, Sentry offers a robust SDK designed specifically for Unreal Engine to help developers debug and maintain performance effectively.

Throughout 2024, we made a ton of updates to Grafana Cloud, our fully managed, cloud-hosted observability platform powered by the Grafana LGTM (Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Tempo for traces, Mimir for metrics) Stack. And, looking back, most of those updates were made with the same three goals in mind: to make Grafana Cloud more efficient, more intelligent, and easier to use, including for those just starting out on their observability journey.

When network issues strike, every second matters. Latency or packet loss can frustrate users and hurt revenue. Learn how Kentik AI uses natural language to speed up troubleshooting and isolate problems quickly.

As organizations transform and modernize their digital operations, the choice of infrastructure isn’t always clean cut. Hybrid cloud architecture is an increasingly popular approach to IT infrastructure, allowing organizations to take advantage of the best features of cloud and on-premises solutions. This approach enables enterprises to optimize workload placement for performance and cost, match applications to ideal environments, and strategically distribute critical assets.

Full stack observability (FSO) includes the ability to measure and monitor all layers of business infrastructure, security, and applications, from the underlying hardware and network performance to the user-facing software. As businesses shift from traditional, monolithic systems to more complex environments involving on-premises (on-prem) and cloud infrastructure, there comes a critical need for holistic observability.

Azure IoT Hub enables you to monitor on-prem devices down to the smallest temperature change and react accordingly from cloud device commands. But how does it work? What other features does Azure IoT have? And, most importantly, how much does it cost? Learn all you need to know about Azure IoT Hub from our expert guide.

We’re pleased to introduce a meaningful update to our email notifications, designed to make managing alerts simpler and more intuitive. These changes help you stay focused on the notifications that matter most while giving you more control over how you monitor services.
