This article is the second installment of the “Implementing Backstage” series and focuses on how to use Backstage’s core features. Backstage has an extensible plugin architecture in active development and large community support and offers simplified tool management, workflow optimization, and time-saving features. However, to reap these benefits, you need to know how to use Backstage’s core features, including its software catalog, templates, documentation, and search.
If generative AI is innovative for enterprises in 2023, being cloud-based is ubiquitous. What that means is that the data today is extremely voluminous and complex. Not to mention that all that data needs proactive monitoring and analysis. Thus, data in observability and monitoring can often be complex and challenging to understand due to its sheer volume and diversity.
HAProxy Enterprise 2.8 and HAProxy ALOHA 15.5 are now available. Users of our enterprise-class software load balancer and hardware/virtual load balancer appliance who upgrade to the latest versions will benefit from all the features announced in the community version, HAProxy 2.8, plus some features that enhance the flexibility of our enterprise security options to meet even more use cases.
SharePoint, born from the tech giant Microsoft, is not just another application; it’s a robust platform that’s been transforming the way businesses handle their internal processes for years. At its core, SharePoint is designed to streamline collaboration and document management. But what does that mean in layman’s terms? Imagine a vast digital library, where instead of books, you have documents, images, videos, and other digital content.
If you work with Kubernetes, you know that any number of issues can pose a serious threat to the stability and security of your deployments. One that's subtly damaging is configuration drift, which occurs when the actual state of how your system is set up — its configuration — strays from the way you defined. Configuration drift in Kubernetes can happen when people make changes manually, systems aren't synchronized properly or monitoring falls short.
What guarantees the success of a website today isn’t just its content and design; delivering a seamless and efficient user experience (UX) is also extremely critical. This is where Core Web Vitals are important as they provide a collection of performance metrics to evaluate the quality of website user experience. Core Web Vitals are critical to attract visitors and retain them as they directly impact a site’s visibility on Google.
A few weeks ago, we published some benchmarking that showed performance gains in InfluxDB 3.0 that are orders of magnitude better than previous versions of InfluxDB – and by extension, other databases as well. There are two key factors that influence these gains: 1. Data ingest, and 2. Data compression. This begs the question, just how did we achieve such drastic improvements in our core database? This post sets out to explain how we accomplished these improvements for anyone interested.
Microsoft Teams has become the go-to platform for seamless collaboration and communication. However, like any technology, performance issues can arise, and these issues affect user experience and productivity. For IT teams tasked with Microsoft Teams troubleshooting, having access to comprehensive data is key. In this blog, we explore the challenges faced by IT teams and how harnessing more data can make the process significantly easier.
