Secure Chaos Engineering on Kubernetes Clusters Without being a Noisy Neighbor
Get started with Gremlin's Chaos Engineering tools to safely, securely, and simply inject failure into your systems to find weaknesses before they cause customer-facing issues. Kubernetes is a powerful open source platform to build scalable, reliable systems, designed to be extensible and customizable for many use cases. Kubernetes provides the ability to scale individual pods, swap out runtimes, and control access to objects using namespaces.
Finding Zen - How IT Ops and IT Security Can Work Together
It's no secret IT Ops and Security teams don't have the most glowing relationship. The simplistic reason is while Ops is responsible for making work and communication as seamless and accessible as possible (and therefore wants everything open), Security is focused on making it as difficult as possible for the wrong people to get inside (and therefore wants everything closed). But beyond the trite hot takes, fundamentally, both teams want to keep the bad guys out without stifling productivity. And when these two groups work together—Well, it’s magic. Timothy Brown, SolarWinds VP of Security, is here to tell you how to reduce friction with some advice and real-world examples.
Tracing with the Grafana Cloud Agent and Grafana Tempo
Back in March, we introduced the Grafana Cloud Agent, a subset of Prometheus built for hosted metrics. It uses a lot of the same battle-tested code as Prometheus and can save 40 percent on memory usage. Ever since the launch, we’ve been adding features to the Agent. Now, there’s a clustering mechanism, additional Prometheus exporters, and support for Loki. Our latest feature: Grafana Tempo! It’s an easy-to-operate, high-scale, and cost-effective distributed tracing system.

Shipping Sysmon Logs to Logz.io Cloud SIEM
System Monitor (Sysmon) is Windows’ service for monitoring activity and recording it to the Windows event log. It is the go-to for logging anything on a PC. Sysmon will immediately log events, capturing vital info. The driver for Sysmon will install as a boot-start driver, enabling capture of any and all events from the get-go. Now, you can send Sysmon logs straight to Logz.io Cloud SIEM.
HAProxy Log Sampling
Log Sampling is a powerful feature introduced in HAProxy 2.0 that lets you define a percentage of your logs to create a representative view of your data allowing you to minimize your costs. Log files are the key to observability. They can provide helpful information that can be used for debugging as well as analytics that can be used to understand how users interact with an application.
The Limitations of Lighthouse
Google Lighthouse helps you identify page performance issues. It generates an overall performance “score” to make you feel good (or bad) about your site’s speed. This score can be useful, but has some limitations. Lighthouse is an automated tool for assessing web page quality. It generates metrics for performance, SEO, accessability and more. Google has been promoting it as THE way to measure website quality.
