Having all relevant information pertaining to a critical incident is vital for quickly identifying the issue and prioritize its importance. SIGNL4 optimizes the perception, response and handling of incidents through customizable alerts with enriched parameters, images, sounds files, links to tickets or PDFs, as well as maps with geo-location information.

As your experience and knowledge of a system grow, change becomes inevitable. Your application requirements change, your bug fixes require code changes, and your APIs evolve. A key challenge in the software ecosystem is managing changes—especially when they concern APIs. Because you’re likely using APIs in multiple applications, you must document all updates and changes made to your APIs. This is where API versioning becomes crucial.

Let’s get one thing out of the way: we’re going into 2023 on a high-note. We’ve closed deals with some of the most respected companies in both the UK and US, we’ve hired in the double-digits, expanded into New York, and revenue is growing steadily. But we aren’t hanging up our football boots just yet. Yes, we can take some time to celebrate our wins, but we’re all hands on deck for 2023 planning.

An Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) is a network security and threat prevention tool. Its goal is to create a proactive approach to cybersecurity, making it possible to identify potential threats and respond quickly. IPS can inspect network traffic, detect malware and prevent exploits. IPS is used to identify malicious activity, log detected threats, report detected threats, and take precautions to prevent threats from harming users.

A quarter has passed since we launched our Reliability Management capabilities that help developers focus on defining, monitoring and managing Service Level Objectives (SLOs) to drive great digital experiences. Reducing alert fatigue and balancing innovation with reliability are common outcomes that customers expect from Reliability Management. If you are new to SLOs, these insights from our customers capture common practices among peer developers.

The definition of AIOps continues to evolve, but understanding the fundamentals of how it works can help you keep up and invest in the right AIOps platform, tools, and features. According to Gartner, AIOps “combines big data and machine learning to automate IT operations processes”. Specifically, Gartner explains that “AIOps platforms analyze telemetry and events, and identify meaningful patterns that provide insights to support proactive responses”.

Over the years, as companies have moved from monolith to cloud-native architectures, maintaining high availability has become more challenging. After all, today’s IT ecosystems are complex, distributed and ephemeral, making it increasingly difficult (and, in many cases, downright impossible) for DevOps practitioners and SREs to identify and fix issues manually.

As you explore IT event management and IT incident management, they may look and even sound similar, but it’s essential to understand how they differ. Your IT management team needs to know what to look for, both in an event and an incident, so they can resolve any red-flag issues and return your system to normalcy. But why is it so important to recognize the difference?

TL;DR: Data aggregation is the process of collecting and organizing large sets of data from multiple sources in order to provide a comprehensive view of a particular situation or system. It allows organizations to better understand and make sense of the vast amount of data being generated in the modern, highly connected world.
