An enterprises' guide to getting started with ITAM for modern innovation

From the point of view of your business, resources and tools that are underutilized are a liability. They can severely affect the bottom line of your enterprise. These tools can cost more than their value, present security risks, and hamper productivity within your enterprise. Even if a particular tool was helpful during the growth of your enterprise, it could soon become obsolete.

What Does Observability Mean for Developers?

Monitoring is often not the first thing on the mind of the modern developer. Yet, it’s necessary at many points of the software development lifecycle, including: before deprecating an API, before launching a new feature, after launching the feature, and more. In fact, monitoring needs can vary much more than the classic Ops monitoring. My podcast guest Liran Haimovitch is the co-founder and CTO of Rookout, a live data collection and debugging platform.

Software exists to make your job easier, not to suck the joy out of your work.

Anatomy of a Supply Chain Attack Detection and Response

In today's world of global supply chains, a breach never stops at a supplier level but cascades all the way up the chain. So being able to detect and stop a supply chain attack at an early stage before an attacker exfiltrates confidential company data or damages company operations and reputation is critical to your organization's survival.

How to review your CircleCI configuration

Configuration files can take some time to set up, but after that initial push they are easy to forget about. “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it” is a common approach that many developers take with their configuration files. But when it comes to your continuous integration pipelines, small changes can have huge benefits.

Using the Monitoring Calendar to drive reducing your support overhead

One of my favorite features in Serverless360 is the monitoring calendar. It is something we added in 2022.
