The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Trace AWS event-driven serverless applications with Datadog APM
Last year, we released native tracing for AWS Lambda through Datadog APM to provide deep visibility into serverless functions and surface performance issues such as cold starts and errors, without any added latency. But Lambda functions are only one piece of the puzzle in a rapidly growing serverless ecosystem, which includes message queues, data streams, notification services, and more.
Quick Test Feature
A feature that’s not available in the Monitive service, but has proven to be a useful helper is the ability to quickly check a website from several locations around the world. Just head out to the homepage and type in a website, with or without https://. Press Test Availability and you instantly get an overview of how your website is performing from several locations around the world.
Observability & AIOps, the perfect combination for dynamic environments
IT teams live in dynamic environments and continuous integration/continuous delivery has been on high demand. In the dynamic environment, DevOps and underlying technologies such as containers and microservices, continue to grow more dynamic, and complex. Now, just like DevOps, observability has become a part of the software development life cycle.
More Changes Mean More Challenges for Troubleshooting
The widespread adoption of Agile methodologies in recent years has allowed organizations to significantly increase their ability to push out more high quality software. Previous development practices revolved heavily around centralized applications and infrequent updates that were shipped maybe once a quarter or even once a year.
Why Your Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) Is Higher Than It Should Be
Mean time to repair (MTTR) is an essential metric that represents the average time it takes to repair and restore a component or system to functionality. It is a primary measurement of the maintainability of an organization’s systems, equipment, applications and infrastructure, as well as its efficiency in fixing that equipment when an IT incident occurs. Key challenges with MTTR arise from just trying to figure out that there is actually a problem.
Splunk SOAR Playbooks: Crowdstrike Malware Triage
The combination of Crowdstrike and Splunk Phantom together allows for a more smooth operational flow from detecting endpoint security alerts to operationalizing threat intelligence and automatically taking the first few response steps – all in a matter of seconds. In this video, distinguished Phantom engineer Philip Royer will walk you through an out-of-the-box playbook that you can set up in Phantom to triage malware detections from Crowdstrike and automate a variety of responses based on an informed decision by an analyst.
Defining A Cloud Monitoring Strategy: Best Practices
When you are running cloud-based services as part of your overall business operations, it becomes necessary to monitor your cloud operations for evaluating the usage and efficiency of the cloud services, applications, and infrastructure. Cloud monitoring also lets you watch for threats and be mindful of cyber-attacks. Here is a brief rundown on how best to monitor cloud services and some tips to make it more efficient and useful.
What is Grafana?
Today, almost every application stack would usually consist of a number of different applications, each performing a specific role and working together towards a common goal. This is the case whether it be that of a fortune 500 company or a computer science student trying to complete a tech project. As such, the stability and reliability of your infrastructure would greatly depend on the performance of each application within that infrastructure.
How to Monitor Cloud Server Performance with Graphite
Dive into the article to learn how to monitor cloud server performance with Graphite and get started on your monitoring needs! Application Performance Monitoring (APM) is a crucial part of the technological era. It refers to a methodological approach towards maintaining and sustaining a system’s health. It is extremely important to monitor an application’s health and performance upon launch, and then regularly afterwards.
