Reliability testing and Chaos Engineering are essential for finding reliability risks and improving the resiliency of systems. Gremlin makes it easy to do so, but not every engineer needs access to the same experiments, systems, or services. That’s why we released customizable role-based access controls (RBAC), letting Gremlin customers control which actions your users can perform in Gremlin.

Network topology describes how a network‘s nodes, connections, and devices physically arrange and interconnect, as well as how they communicate. The arrangement or configuration of a network’s components plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth ITOps with minimum downtime. Any issues in the network can disrupt operations, leading to potentially dire consequences. To prevent this, you need to understand your network functionality and structure.

Software complexity grows exponentially, developer efficiency grows far slower. And debugging often takes up 20-50% of development time. More complex, connected systems means increased data flow at the edge, and in the cloud. That leads to increased exposure to vulnerabilities, cyber threats, malfunctions, and bugs with risks that are hard to assess.

Even with dedicated database staff (often with impressive technical skills), businesses need help understanding how to address database issues. IT managers and database specialists are keen to try different approaches to keeping databases working as efficiently as possible. One popular approach is ‘DevOps’. As companies navigate the complexities of digital transformation and a growing trend toward cloud migration, IT environments have become extraordinarily complex.

The choices you make around IT infrastructure have great impact for both business cost and performance, across areas as diverse as operations, finance, data analysis and marketing. Given the importance of data across all of these areas and frankly, across your business as a whole, making the right decision when choosing a new storage system is critical. In this blog post we will take a look at some of the factors to consider in order to ensure you balance cost effectiveness with performance.

Understanding costs is an essential part of service ownership. But in cloud-based applications, the cost of any given service often comes down to a wide range of dynamic factors. Individual services can incur fees from numerous dependencies, from data stores to observability solutions, and keeping track of these expenses can mean reckoning with the intricacies of many different billing models.
