As a strictly typed language, Flux protects you from a lot of potential runtime failures. However, if you don’t know the column types on the data you’re querying, you might encounter some annoying errors. Suppose you have a bucket that receives regular writes from multiple different streams, and you want to write a task to downsample a measurement from that bucket into another bucket.
HAProxy and HAProxy Enterprise collect a vast amount of information about the health of your applications being load balanced. That data, which uses the Prometheus text-based format for metrics, is published to a web page hosted by the load balancer, and since many application performance monitoring (APM) tools can integrate with Prometheus, it’s likely that you can visualize the data using the APM software you already have.
Log messages - also known as event logs, audit records, and audit trails – document computing events occurring in IT environments. Generated or triggered by the software or the user, log messages provide visibility into and documentation of almost every action on a system. So, with all that in mind, let’s explore all the biggest log management challenges of modern IT and the solutions for these problems.
Today, I am excited to introduce the NSQ integration available for Grafana Cloud, our platform that brings together all your metrics, logs, and traces with Grafana for full-stack observability. NSQ is a real-time distributed messaging platform designed to operate at scale, handling billions of messages per day. It’s a simple and lightweight alternative to other message queues such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, or ActiveMQ. This will walk you through how to get the most out of the integration.
In late 2021, Microsoft published an article regarding the connectivity principles for securely managing Microsoft 365 traffic in order to get the best possible performance. Take me to the Article: Microsoft 365 Network Connectivity Principles >> In the section focused on avoiding network hairpins, Microsoft states that as a general rule, the shortest and most direct route/call flow between the user and their closest Microsoft 365 endpoint will offer the best performance.
As the world becomes more dependent on cloud-native systems, the tolerance for slow services is decreasing. Users expect instantaneous access to services, whether it's for work, entertainment, or even cloud infrastructure. Even small amounts of latency can significantly decrease user satisfaction: nearly half of all users expect web pages to load in under two seconds, and as many as 28% of users will permanently abandon a slow site.
