Asaf and I founded Logz.io in 2015 to provide developers with the ultimate open source log management experience. With our product, logging with the ELK Stack was simple, efficient, and automated for the first time – so customers could save engineering costs and accelerate MTTR.

During the second quarter of this year, Lightrun persisted producing a wealth of developer productivity solutions and enhancements, aiming for greater troubleshooting of distributed workload applications, reduction of MTTR for complex issues, and cost optimization within cloud-computing. Read more below the main new features as well as the key product enhancements that were released in Q2 of 2023!

At Qovery, we manage hundreds of Kubernetes clusters for our customers on different Cloud Providers. For most non-operational people, it’s hard to understand what it means behind the scene, the amount of work it represents, pitfalls we can encounter, and associated complexity. Our customers are coming for several reasons, but they’re all happy to have Qovery management on the Kubernetes maintenance and upgrade stack. On our side, it’s too many clusters to manage them manually.

ITIL and Risk Management are closely related. They're both focused on helping organizations run their IT departments efficiently and, most importantly, safely. But here's the thing. The relationship between the two hasn’t always been clearly defined. That is, until the latest version of ITIL launched in 2019. A new version of ITIL is always exciting in the IT Service Management (ITSM) world, and incorporating knowledge on dedicated Risk Management practices was a very welcomed inclusion.

Kentik customers can now map traffic and performance of Microsoft Azure infrastructure with visibility into Azure Firewalls, Express Routes, Load Balancers, VWANs, and more in Kentik Cloud.

Benefits of GitOps in IT monitoring The GitOps model has gained popularity as a software development approach. It enables IT teams to deliver higher-quality software faster and more efficiently. By streamlining and automating the development process, GitOps provides substantial productivity improvements while ensuring comprehensive observability for monitoring and control.

In this post I will introduce sysgrok, a research prototype in which we are investigating how large language models (LLMs), like OpenAI's GPT models, can be applied to problems in the domains of performance optimization, root cause analysis, and systems engineering. You can find it on GitHub.

Welcome again to another Decoding Logic App Dilemmas: Solutions for Seamless Integration! This time we selected a different problem but a very common scenario in Enterprise Integration: File transfer. But in this very particular case: How to copy.gdoc files from Google Drive into another place using Azure Logic App?

Grafana dashboards enable millions of users to visualize and analyze their data. And working behind the scenes of the widely used open source platform is React, a frontend JavaScript library for building user interfaces. In this post — which was inspired by my recent presentation at React Summit 2023 in Amsterdam — we’ll explore why we chose to use React for Grafana, and the benefits and challenges we’ve seen along the way.

In today’s digital landscape, organisations of all sizes have expanded their presence in the cloud. But with this expansion comes a significant increase in the attack surface, making security a top concern. In this blog, we will dive into the exciting world of cloud cyber security, and explore a stronger approach to securing your workloads with the help of Ubuntu.
