Elastic Observability Engineer Training Preview: Structuring data

May 26, 2020 By Elastic In Elastic

Hello! This session will be delivered virtually by Tamara Rosini and Lutf Ur Rehman, Education Engineers at Elastic. They will guide us through the new Elastic Observability Engineer course while providing tips on how to structure data properly as an observability best practice. Properly parsing and structuring your data is an important first step in building an efficient and effective observability solution using the Elastic Stack. Effectively indexing and structuring data into Elasticsearch is critical for establishing efficient search criteria and effective results.

GrafanaCONline: Chrome browsing data to Grafana - as you browse

May 26, 2020 By Grafana In Grafana

Chrome Devtools is used by all web developers to debug and inspect network traffic. Sometimes the page loads sluggishly, and then you open Devtools and reload the page, and the problem is gone. What if you wanted to know how well the site performs, for example, when you click six pages? While it is possible to keep the tab open at all times, it is hard to see the big picture from the data in the network tab. This is a wonderful use case for time series and Grafana! In this presentation I will show how to get the same data visualized in Grafana in near real time (1s delay) without opening the Devtools at all.

How to Monitor for Unauthorized Changes to Your Linux Packages With SCM

May 26, 2020 By SolarWinds In SolarWinds

Packages keep your Linux servers up to date and running smoothly.

Keeping an eye out for what packages are deployed, the package sources, and how they're changed could help prevent or alert you to an issue. In this video, we'll show you how to gain visibility into your Linux packages and track how they're changing over time.

This hackathon was dedicated to instrumentation and monitoring.

Introduction to Site Reliability Engineering

May 26, 2020 By Datadog In Datadog

In this session, we start with the basics of SRE, including some common terminology and theory, then dive into practical examples—including lessons learned from our own journey here at Datadog. We discuss the relationship between SRE and DevOps, what success looks like (and how to measure it), and how to identify and nurture both internal and external talent in order to build a cross-functional team. SRE is a large, complex topic, so the session ends with a live Q&A and deep-dive into some great topics.

In this week’s Tip Tuesday, we are focusing on API monitoring. APIs are a set of rules or standards, which extend the functionality of an application, allowing different applications and/or programs to interact. These little helpers are built with flexibility and ease of integration in mind. APIs simplify programming, allowing developers to build complex applications without having to worry about usability.
