The latest News and Information on Monitoring for Websites, Applications, APIs, Infrastructure, and other technologies.
Application performance monitoring (APM) extends observability beyond system availability, service performance, and response times in current, cloud-native contexts. Organizations can improve user experiences at the scale of modern computing by using automatic and intelligent observability. User experiences in software applications are monitored and managed using APM technologies.
Performance testing is an essential component of building fast and reliable web services. Until recently, this testing typically happened later in the development process and was often performed by a separate team or even a third party. But speed is the competitive advantage for companies, and prioritizing testing during the development process can speed time to market for new applications.
Javascript execution analysis on dev environments is easy—just use Google Developer or some other free tools. However, getting the same level of analysis while your application is being used by a real user is much harder. You can’t possibly ask the end-user to help you troubleshoot. Even if you did, the user probably wouldn’t know what to do and they definitely wouldn’t be impressed by your organization.

One of the most common questions we get at Honeycomb is “What insights can you get in the browser?” Browser-based code has become orders of magnitude more complex than it used to be. There are many different patterns, and, with the rise of Single Page App frameworks, a lot of the code that is traditionally done in a backend or middle layer is now being pushed up to the browser. Instead, the questions should be: What insights do frontend engineers want?
Serverless reduces a lot of operational burdens, but a is still your responsibility 🔐 From web threats, over IAM principles to auditing and monitoring.
