Monitoring Azure AKS & Azure Linux with VictoriaMetrics

Azure linux is a Linux distribution built for Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure. It can be used as a base OS when creating node pools in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters. Using Azure linux as a base OS for AKS node pools has several benefits, such as lower resources footprint, faster boot times, and better security.

The Rise of Open Source Time Series Databases

Time series databases allow you to store and query metrics efficiently. For example, if you want to forecast load on your servers, or identify intermittent faults with your production services, time series databases can help. Besides infrastructure monitoring, time series databases have been invaluable in finance, IoT applications, manufacturing, and more. Many time series databases, including VictoriaMetrics, are open source.

Open Source Software Licenses vs Revenue Growth Rates

I don’t understand why pure open-source licenses, such as Apache2, MIT or BSD, should be replaced with a source available license in order to increase profits from enterprise support contracts. That’s why we at VictoriaMetrics aren’t going to change the Apache2 license for our products. Our main goal is to provide good products to users, and to help users use these products in the most efficient way.

Strategies for Efficient Log Management in Large-Scale Kubernetes Clusters

Aliaksandr Valialkin, #VictoriaMetrics CTO present "Strategies for Efficient hashtag#LogManagement in Large-Scale hashtag#Kubernetes Clusters" at hashtag#FrOSCon. Large #Kubernetes clusters can generate significant volumes of logs, especially when housing thousands of running pods. This may demand substantial CPU, RAM, disk IO, and disk space for storing and querying large log volumes. In this talk, we will look into different strategies of storing those logs in #ElasticSearch, Grafana Loki and #VictoriaLogs and examine how we can save 10x or more on infrastructure costs.
