Big ideas need creative solutions. Creative solutions mean solving out of the box engineering problems. When you’re solving these new problems, strong error monitoring is imperative to the development cycle. You don’t want to spend all your time chasing down issues and struggling to track the source of errors.
You’re done setting up your first graph panels. You want to do more, look around the visualization settings, and discover the settings for the X and Y axes. You stumble over the configuration for a “Right Y” axis.

To round out our series on the serverless open source community, Itay Herskovits, CTO of Funzing.com – a community marketplace for local experiences – picks 10 must-have Serverless Framework plugins. As serverless technology has evolved, a few early-movers have become staples of serverless development. One of these is Serverless Framework, an extensible serverless application management tool that helps you maintain, support, and deploy your serverless code.
