Golden Signals - Monitoring from first principles

Building a successful monitoring process for your application is essential for high availability. In the first of this three-part blog series, Safeer discusses the four key SRE Golden Signals for metrics-driven measurement, and the role it plays in the overall context of Monitoring. Monitoring is the cornerstone of operating any software system or application effectively.

Distributed systems like Kubernetes can be hard to manage, as they involve many moving parts and all of them must work for the system to function. Even if a small part breaks, it needs to be detected, routed and fixed. These actions also need to be automated. Kubernetes allows us to do that with the help of readiness and liveness probes.

Automating database cleanup with scheduled pipelines

RESTful API projects often require that developers grant temporary access to a particular resource. Sometimes this happens within a specific interval, such as a few days or months. Revoking permissions when they expire could mean including extra logic during the authentication process or writing a middleware function to attach to the secured endpoint. Or, this logic could be abstracted to a separate part and configured to check and manage permissions at a regular interval.
