I never thought that this would be my life. For more than a year, I’ve been talking to individual customers and getting inspired by their stories, challenges, and goals. Now, I have the spectacular opportunity to meet entire conference rooms of people who are excited to hear about my story, challenges, and goals. This is my time to give back to the types of users who have inspired me ever since I entered the serverless space.

Any search engine needs to be be able to parse language. As the field of natural language processing (NLP) has grown, specific text analysis has been applied to stop words and tokenizing (or marking) them by part of speech. In Elasticsearch (and elsewhere), the most attention has been paid to English, although the ELK stack has built-in support for 34 languages as of this writing.

Today is an exciting day for Loki, as we have decided it’s time for Loki to graduate out of beta and into a 1.0.0 GA release! It’s been just about a year since we announced Loki at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America in Seattle, and in that time over 137 contributors have made more than 1,000 contributions. Here’s a look at where the project is today.

Hello again! Welcome to the finalé of a two-part series of posts on errors in JavaScript. Last time, we took a look into the history of errors in JavaScript — how JavaScript shipped without runtime exceptions, how error handling mechanisms were later added both to the fledgeling web browsers of the day and to the ECMAScript spec, and how they future efforts to standardise these features would be connected to the politics of the browser wars of the late 90’s and 2000’s.

Today’s overtaxed IT teams are under tremendous pressure to leverage new technologies like AI, cloud and IoT to innovate, but in reality, they spend most of their time just trying to keep the lights on.

For over a decade, JFrog has been performing heavy lifts. We pioneered artifact management, have served developers with industry-leading tools, and helped them get containers quickly and safely where they need to go. Today we’re delighted to announce JFrog Container Registry, the world’s most advanced, fully hybrid Docker registry that’s free to use on-prem, in the cloud, or both.

Digital transformation may be the largest shift the IT industry will experience in a lifetime. It’s a term used throughout the tech industry and in various contexts. Gartner defines it as “…anything from IT modernization (for example, cloud computing), to digital optimization, to the invention of new digital business models,” which has massive implications for almost every organization.

14 years old, our beloved monitoring software is already 14 years old! Pandora FMS enters adolescence and does it with more friends than acne, with more achievements than voice changes and with more future ideas than problems at school. 14 years which are celebrated quickly with a cake and which fade, even faster, in the wake of congratulations on the day of its birthday. However, those years, so easy to count, carry weight and are remembered, with love and consequence.

This is a technical deep dive into the authentication process — a necessary first step before addressing the authorization decisions that are at the core of Elasticsearch security. The following will be a very detailed explanation of the inner workings of a key part of the authentication process: realms. If you'd prefer to start with a broader view of authentication (and authorization) in Elasticsearch, you may want to check out Demystifying authentication and authorization in Elasticsearch.

​Have you used Elastic Maps in Kibana yet? I am very excited about multiple layer support. Heat maps, vector layers from the Elastic Maps Service, and even individual documents all in the same interface! What a fantastic way to analyze and visualize your data. But what about geospatial data that’s not in Elasticsearch? Maybe you want to overlay a shapefile of regional sales territories with sales aggregations.
