Last week, we shared an introduction on how to use incoming webhooks to integrate with Mattermost. Here’s an example of how to use them in action.

Tigera serves the networking and policy enforcement needs of more than 150,000 Kubernetes clusters across the globe and supports two product lines: open source Calico, and Calico Enterprise. Our development team is constantly running smoke, system, unit, and functional verification tests, as well as all our E2Es for these products. Our CI pipelines form an extremely important aspect of the overall IT infrastructure and enable us to test our products and catch bugs before release.

Think about your last online order. If you’re a frequent online shopper and have created profiles for sites you visit often (*raises hand*), then you’re probably familiar with customized recommendations. Based on your purchase history, location, and other factors, the website may suggest other items you might be interested in buying. And if you’re on the site long enough, chatbots may appear asking if you have questions or need assistance locating something.

Even though ITAM has been around for a long time, there are still some very loose interpretations that claim to define IT asset management (ITAM). But, to be fair, the term asset management has different meanings depending upon the audience. When it comes to IT assets, we are specifically referring to those assets that enable the IT side of the business to run.

Earlier this year, as COVID-19 appeared, our global community of almost 800 employees became a fully remote workforce—effectively overnight. Now, all of us have had a taste of what it’s like to work from home all the time, from embracing the benefits of less time commuting and more time with our families, to the downsides of feeling isolated and missing seeing our colleagues in “real life.”

These release notes describe new features, improvements and fixed issues in Pandora FMS NG 748. They also provide information about upgrades and describe some workarounds for known issues.

OpenID Connect (OIDC) is an authentication layer based on OAuth 2.0 protocol that provides a way to identify and authenticate users via an authorization server. OAuth 2.0 authorization servers are managed by identity providers. In the domain associated with OIDC, they are also called OpenID Connect Providers (OPs). OIDC allows users to connect to web applications in a simplistic single sign-on (SSO) manner thanks to the identity provider.

As work from home has ballooned in 2020, virtual methods for communicating with colleagues have become more critical than ever. Same goes for all the useful productivity and collaboration tools at our disposal. The emerging downside is the difficulty of finding needed information among so many tools. Compounding the problem is the tendency for info to get siloed off by department.

In this blog post series, I’ve explored the relationship between observability and a set of software delivery lifecycle practices that help organizations adopt DevOps practices and change their ways of working from being project centric to product-centric. I started with Site Reliability Engineering, then considered Value Stream Management (VSM) and finish with this post on Continuous Integration and Delivery (CI/CD). Defining Continuous Integration

We have explored how we can deploy Machine Learning models using AWS Lambda. Deploying ML models with AWS Lambda is suitable for early-stage projects as there are certain limitations in using Lambda function. However, this is not a reason to worry if you need to utilize AWS Lambda to its full potential for your Machine Learning project. When working with Lambda functions its a constant worry about the size of deployment packages for a developer.
