A targeted approach to improving users’ browser experiences while minimizing the impact on IT As today’s modern IT estates see an exponential increase in the use of SaaS-based applications year-over-year, many of those applications are being accessed through the browser. The ability to manage browser usage, data, and synchronization has become critical to positive experiences for local, mobile, and remote users.
In this How-To, we’re going to look at a specific Catchpoint synthetic monitor that helps you analyze the health of systems built around the Internet of things (IoT). Now, IoT is obviously a huge category, so in this case, we’re going to look at systems that utilize the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport or MQTT for short.
There are multiple ways to interact programatically with Icinga. Last week Henrik demonstrated how to connect to the Icinga 2 API through the Icinga 2 Console. Working with the Icinga 2 API is probably the most obvious way to interact with Icinga. Still, I would like to suggest to you another option: How you can fetch data from Icinga Web.
It’s easy to get started with Java and Honeycomb using OpenTelemetry. With Honeycomb being a big supporter of the OpenTelemetry initiative, all it takes is a few parameters to get your data in. In this post, I will walk through setting up a demo app with the OpenTelemetry Java agent and show how I was able to get rich details with little work by combining automatic instrumentation from the agent with custom instrumentation in the code.
Security information and event management (SIEM) systems are centralized logging platforms that enable security teams to analyze event data in real time for early detection of targeted cyber attacks and data breaches. A SIEM is used as a tool to collect, store, investigate, and report on log data for threat detection, incident response, forensics, and regulatory compliance.
Link Analysis is a data analysis approach used to discover relationships and connections between data elements and entities. This is a very visual and interactive technique that can be done in the Splunk platform – and is almost always driven by a person, an analyst or investigator, to understand the data and discover necessary insights specific to the business problem at hand.
AWS Lambda has become a core technology in the shift to cloud-native application development, eliminating infrastructure management and fixed costs. But there are trade-offs with serverless environments. Not having access to the production infrastructure can make debugging difficult and there are a lot of moving parts, adding distributed complexity. Monitoring serverless functions in production requires observability beyond CloudWatch logs and metrics.
Cloud migration is, more often than not, treated as a one-way street where organizations migrate applications and workloads from on-premises to a public cloud, or less often, from one public cloud to another. But a key finding in our recent State of Hybrid Cloud survey of 350 IT professionals with cloud decision influence/authority is that a whopping 72% of participating organizations stated that they’ve had to move applications back on-premises after migrating them to the public cloud.
