In the first part of this series, we toured performance APIs in Node.js. We discussed the capabilities of APIs and how they can diagnose slowdowns or network issues in your Node application. Now, in this concluding segment, we will embark on a practical journey, applying these performance hooks in a real-world scenario. You will understand how to effectively use these tools to monitor and enhance your application's performance. Let's dive in and see these concepts in action!

Starting today, Checkly users can send their traces from synthetics checks to Coralogix to view in-depth synthetic user data along with back-end APM based tracing. This gives SRE’s and Operations engineers a new insight into how the system is responding to automated synthetic tests of your service. For Checkly users, integrating with Coralogix data means it’s easy to correlate end-to-end user experience with backend performance, and track poor performance to its root cause.

There is an immense amount of IT and security data out there and there’s no sign of slowing down. Our customers have told us they feel like they’re drowning in data. They know some data have value, some don’t. Some might have value in the future. They need some place cost-effective to store it all. Some for just a short while, some for the long haul. But they’re not data engineers. They don’t have the expertise to set up and maintain a traditional data lake.

Enabling secure and performant multi-tenant analytics for your PostgreSQL® deployments on Aiven's data platform. In the realm of multi-tenant Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, managing a centralized PostgreSQL® database for multiple customers can present challenges in maintaining secure segregation of their data. While a single database offers infrastructure efficiency, it becomes crucial to ensure each organization has isolated access and control over their information.

For SaaS platforms, utilizing observability is crucial, as it’s vital for these companies to deeply understand their users' experience and the root cause of any issues. Observability involves leveraging the appropriate tools and processes in place to effectively track, examine, and troubleshoot the performance and behavior of a system, even if you can't directly see what's happening inside it.

Clouds, be they private or public, surprisingly remain one of the most DIY-favouring markets. Perhaps due to the nebulous and increasingly powerful technologies, a series of myths, or even unnecessary egos, the majority of non-tech-centric enterprises (meaning, companies whose primary business scope rests outside the realm of IT software and hardware) still try to build and nurture in-house cloud management teams, without considering outsourcing even part of their workload.
