Cron job is a scheduling tool that allows you to control tasks to be performed at preconfigured times. Through it you can configure automatic tasks, that is, you can define routines to be executed at a specific time.

There are nearly two billion websites live at this very moment. That’s almost two billion chances for data to be stolen and malware to be distributed. Don’t worry! Or maybe do worry, but just not too much. Protections have been developed to keep data and websites safe.

The adoption of microservices and container technologies has increased rapidly as DevOps teams look into faster release cycles for application delivery. However, these ephemeral technologies dramatically increase the complexity of managing, visualizing and mapping dependencies between components in your IT infrastructure. Microservices are dynamic and can scale horizontally in an instant, which poses challenges in monitoring when the locations of containers and services are constantly changing.

Monitoring has typically been the remit of small, specialised IT Operations teams but the tools they’ve been given are rarely fit for purpose in today’s demanding environments.

Any changes to a Postgresql database first of all are saved in Write-Ahead log, so they will never get lost. Only after that actual changes are made to the data in memory pages (in so called buffer cache) and these pages are marked dirty — meaning they need to be synced to disk later.

As you may already know, our Guidance Report not only inspects your AWS account using best practice recommendation checks, but it also finds avenues to improve performance, reliability, and savings so you can deploy resources with confidence. Today, I'm excited to announce that we've introduced some enhancements to make the Guidance Report even more helpful. So let's get straight to it.

It is been more than two years that Emerson Electic Co. is using WLSDM and WL-OPC together. I have to admit that Soumya (Soumya Prakash Mishra) and his team helped us much to enhance the product. Another big thanks to Ramanpreet (Ramanpreet Singh Ahluwalia) one of hidden hero at Emerson :) I witness how Ramanpreet increased his Oracle FMW and operational skills by using WLSDM… A great applause to Emerson team.

We built Versions for customers who are adopting software development practices like Continuous Delivery. One important habit to cultivate when you're seeking to adopt Continuous Delivery is to deploy early and often. This is easier to do when you have a tool like Rollbar that allows you to see all production errors instantly and quickly prioritize and debug them as needed. With Versions, we're making it even easier for you to use Rollbar to monitor errors from code revisions you've just deployed.
