New year, new feature... and this is a big one: downtime alerts to Slack. As well as getting email and SMS alerts when your websites go down you can now receive alerts straight to your Slack workspace.
Unicast Flooding Traffic is associated with the learning process of network switches. In fact, with this method, switches identify the MAC addresses of the devices that are accessible by each of their ports, thus constructing a table that will then be used to decide the destination of each frame that arrives at the switch.
Out of the box, Sentry notifies you about crashes in your JavaScript apps and gives you useful tools to help you debug what your app was doing when it broke. If Sentry stopped there, it would still be great and valuable, but it’s possible to maximize your front-end debugging potential with just a few manual optimizations.
One perennial problem we face in monitoring is dealing with noise. We don't want to miss important signals, but sorting through all the noise can be a chore. Ideally, we want to spend as little time as possible doing the setup work needed to achieve excellent signal-to-noise ratio. The feature we've just released will help you get closer to that optimal setup faster, with less work.
To build stable and flexible software, we need to keep software design principles in mind. Having error-free code is essential. However, well-designed software architecture is just as important. SOLID is one of the most well-known sets of software design principles. It can help you avoid common pitfalls and think about your apps’ architecture from a higher level.
When looking at the performance of your website, web service,or API over a span of time, you will notice variations in the performance reported by the monitor. You may also notice inconsistencies between the performance reported from different monitors. Why? Why do you see spikes in your charts?
