Nobody will dispute that a common goal of DevOps pros and SREs, and really any company today, is to delight their customers more by disappointing them less. This was the theme of a recent live webinar focused on announcing a new game-changing partnership between Datadog and Moogsoft. The live session combined remarks by Moogsoft CEO Phil Tee and CTO Dave Casper on bringing together the best of these two technologies with a new seamless integration.
With increasing complexity and workloads, the world of IT operations is constantly evolving to meet the needs of digital-first organizations. Automation, AI and DevOps are intersecting today like never before. A constant influx of new technologies means new terms. Here's our take on the meaning of leading words and phrases in the space right now.
Security is an essential part of any modern IT foundation, whether in smaller shops or at enterprise-scale. It used to be sufficient to implement rules-based software to defend against malicious actors, but those malicious actors are not standing still.

Building more and more rules-based software to detect security events means you are always one step behind in an unsustainable fight.
One of the great things about InfluxDB is that it is really easy to get up and running, and it doesn’t require much monitoring when you are dealing with datasets that fit well on your local dev machine. Once you start using InfluxDB in production and pushing orders of magnitude more data into the system, it’s critical to monitor how your instance is performing so that you can proactively respond to things like disk or network failures, memory saturation, and write or query loads.
This is an example machine learning image recognition stack using AWS Lambda Container Images. Lambda container images can include more source assets than traditional ZIP packages (10 GB vs 250 MB image sizes), allowing for larger ML models to be used. This example contains an AWS Lambda function that uses the Open Images Dataset TensorFlow model to detect objects in an image.
Tracking Apache server performance is important to avoid future problems. Hence, what is Apache? Apache is one of the most popular and widely used web servers. As an open source cross platform HTTP server, it can be run in a Linux, Unix, or Windows environment.
