One of the critical differences between distributed tracing and business activity monitoring is that distributed tracing usually assumes that your transaction executes from start to end in a reasonably short time. An example would be that your call to an API might then drop a message on a queue which a function processes and loads into a database.

Curious about Microsoft Azure and the best ways to connect? Azure is a hybrid Cloud Service Provider (CSP) with customized, scalable, cloud-based packages. These encompass Software as a Service (SaaS), based on subscription-based software licensing and delivery, Platform as a Service (PaaS), allowing companies to develop, deploy, manage, and update applications, and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), providing high-level application programming interfaces (APIs).

As we enter a critical period in the effort to mitigate climate change, organizations are facing mounting regulatory pressure—along with a biological imperative—to reduce their carbon footprint. And for those that maintain significant on-prem infrastructure, energy costs associated with operating hardware components can significantly affect their bottom line.

In retail, the cloud changes everything because it offers flexibility and the opportunity to do things better, or to do things that were previously impossible, for a lower cost. This is especially true in a multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environment, where retailers can connect their legacy private data centres with public clouds to enhance their offering and make it more competitive.

With HTTP REST APIs serving as the backbone of modern web applications, securing those APIs presents a critical challenge for organizations. APIs are typically designed to be discoverable, self-documenting, and easily consumed by a range of programming languages, and that makes them appetizing for hackers.

The age of growth-at-all-costs is over. Profitability matters — and it matters now. For SaaS companies who rely heavily on the public cloud, understanding what’s driving (or hurting) profitability can be tricky. Different customers have different needs and usage patterns, drive different levels of cost, and impact profitability unequally. Cybersecurity has played a central role in CloudZero from the beginning —or really, before it.
