In today's digital landscape, optimal web application performance is crucial for business success. Slow loading times, unresponsive pages, and inefficient code can drive away users and harm your reputation. This makes monitoring web app performance extremely important to prevent them and to provide a smooth user experience. Sitespeed, a powerful web performance monitoring framework, analyzes metrics like page load time, resource usage, and user interactions to identify performance bottlenecks.

A recently conducted survey of 51 CISOs and other security leaders a series of questions about the current demand for cybersecurity solutions, spending intentions, security posture strategies, tool preferences, and vendor consolidation expectations. While the report highlights the trends around platform consolidation over the short run, 82% of respondents stated they expect to increase the number of vendors in the next 2-3 years.

The OpenTelemetry Go project now supports automatic instrumentation via eBPF! This is a big milestone for the project and makes it significantly easier to generate data from your Go apps: The automatic instrumentation agent is still in s/alpha/beta today, but it’s ready for you to try on your applications!

Every well-oiled machine needs both a gas and a brake pedal. If our article titled How IT Teams Can Leverage AIOps’ Capabilities is the gas pedal in this analogy, then this writing is the proverbial brakes in which we explore some educational pit stops organizations should make on their way to integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) into their IT operations (AIOps).

During the past month of July, the Sentry dev team dropped new capabilities to help you better understand, prioritize, and respond to errors and performance problems. From new ways of sorting priority issues to helping you be more proactive in identifying problems earlier in the dev lifecycle, we’ve picked a handful of recent releases to dive into. Plus we’ll highlight a couple of new integrations with our friends at Slack and Atlassian.

Network operations centers (NOCs) play a critical role in any organization’s operational and business continuity. To meet their vital charters, NOC teams must constantly strive to maintain uninterrupted network availability and to minimize the business impact of network issues. Within the NOC, effective collaboration is essential for quick troubleshooting and resolution of network issues.

Datadog Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) gives you visibility into all the communication that takes place between the network components in your environment, including hosts, processes, containers, clusters, zones, regions, and VPCs. As organizations scale, and as their networks grow in complexity, the massive volume of network data to be monitored can become overwhelming. Knowing precisely what network data to surface to resolve issues within these larger environments can be a challenge.

Logz.io is excited to announce Easy Connect, which will enable our customers to go from zero to full observability in minutes. By automating service discovery and application instrumentation, Easy Connect provides nearly instant visibility into any component in your Kubernetes-based environment – from your infrastructure to your applications. Since applications have been monitored, collecting logs, metrics, and traces have often been siloed and complex.

In today’s digital landscape, organizations need the right cybersecurity applications to address evolving cyber threats effectively. To keep security teams aligned and streamline mission-critical workflows, one of the most important cybersecurity applications organizations need is a secure and efficient cybersecurity collaboration platform that enables seamless communication, information sharing, and coordinated incident response.

Logs and log management have been around far longer than monitoring and it is easy to forget just how useful and essential they can be for modern observability. Most of you will know us for VictoriaMetrics, our open source time series database and monitoring solution. Metrics are our “thing”; but as engineers, we’ve had our fair share of frustrations in the past caused by modern logging systems that tend to create further complexity, rather than removing it.
