In an agile DevOps environment, developers move quickly and often, making small changes in ongoing sprints. Once applications go live, operations teams (and often times, developers themselves) take over performance management and issue resolution, while updates and improvements continue. Developers and DevOps teams need a continuous flow of information on how each iteration works, fails, or worse – introduces new problems.

Every organization relies on mission-critical applications and services that ultimately generate revenue, so the user experience has never been more important. Companies trust their developer and operations (DevOps) teams to ensure important applications run smoothly. DevOps teams, in turn, trust application performance optimization tools to quickly identify and resolve issues or avoid them altogether in the first place.

For distributed systems and microservices, message brokers play a very important role. Message brokers keep data flowing smoothly between different parts of our applications. Two names that often come up in discussions about message brokers are RabbitMQ and Kafka. But what exactly are they, and how do they differ?

A 502 Bad Gateway error implies that the server (Nginx) can’t properly communicate with the upstream web application server. A sign of more severe problems, such as server overload, improper configuration, or network failure, a 502 Bad Gateway error can cause service interruption, which can translate to revenue loss. Fortunately, you can easily resolve the error in Nginx once you identify the causes.

Redis is an in-memory data store used primarily as a quick-response database or an application cache. As an open-source NoSQL database, Redis handles data operations in microseconds, making it perfect for applications that need real-time processing. Fast, flexible, and easy to use, Redis has become a key player in modern application design.. Developers love Redis for its scalability and because it delivers application performance much faster than traditional databases, thanks to its in-memory operations.

It’s no secret that many businesses rely heavily on Amazon Web Services (AWS) for their infrastructure and application needs. While AWS offers scalability, flexibility, and reliability, managing and monitoring cloud resources can be challenging. That’s where AWS monitoring and observability can be a tremendous asset. Today, we will explore how implementing these practices is crucial for ensuring that your cloud environment operates smoothly, efficiently, and securely.

Ensuring your applications are reliable and performant is more critical now than ever. This need has driven the rise of observability practices, where developers and operations teams closely monitor their applications’ health, performance, and behavior. This is where OpenTelemetry (OTel) comes into play.

Prometheus has emerged as the de facto standard for monitoring in cloud-native environments based on several key factors. Prometheus offers a highly scalable time-series database, capable of handling millions of metrics and a pull-based architecture that simplifies network configuration and enhances security. In this blog post, we’ll explore the four primary Prometheus metric types: counter, gauge, histogram, and summary.

We are excited to inform you that Open Telemetry is now available for you with the introduction of “Netreo OTel Appliance”. With the OTel Appliance, cloud-native services like AWS Lambda, AWS ECS, AWS EKS, Azure Functions, Azure App Services, Azure Container Instances, and Azure Kubernetes Services can be monitored and you see application traces and logs in Retrace UI (s1.stackify.com). The applications hosted in the cloud Serverless and containers can be monitored without running the Retrace agent within the instance itself.
