Because everyone knows it, the greatest secrets of technology are kept by the monks of monasteries like those of Rizong, Jammu or Kashmir, not the Internet.

JMX metrics give solid insights into the workings of your application. Integrating them with Levitate (our time series data warehosue) required us to jump some hoops with vmagent.

Welcome to the second part of this series of blog posts on How to throw custom exceptions inside Logic Apps. In this series of five blogs, I will cover throwing custom exceptions in Logic Apps. I will cover the following topics: In this second approach, we are going to do a small fine-tuning of the previous approach by adding the capability to define custom error messages for each condition and, of course, get that information inside the Catch Scope.

Remote monitoring and management (RMM) software has become an indispensable tool for IT service providers. Numerous factors, such as the pandemic, the push towards cloud services, and shortages of IT staff, have increased the number of remote and distributed workers to a staggering degree, increasing the need for a consolidated way to view and manage IT environments.
