Out-of-memory (OOM) errors take place when the Linux kernel can’t provide enough memory to run all of its user-space processes, causing at least one process to exit without warning. Without a comprehensive monitoring solution, OOM errors can be tricky to diagnose. In this post, you will learn how to use Datadog to diagnose OOM errors on Linux systems.
Synthetic monitoring lets you improve end user experience by proactively verifying that they can complete important transactions and access key endpoints.

Apache Ignite is a computing platform for storing and processing large datasets in memory. Ignite can leverage hardware RAM as both a caching and storage layer to serve as a distributed, in-memory database or data grid. This allows Ignite to ingest and process complex datasets—such as those from real-time machine learning and analytics systems—in parallel and at faster speeds than traditional databases supported by only disk storage.
