One of the big things we’ve learned since starting Kosli is that engineers often struggle to define an SDLC for compliance purposes. That doesn’t mean they don’t know how to deliver secure, quality software. They’ve just never had to actually define a process for how they do it. Perfectly capable engineers can spend years shipping great products and features without ever having to properly define and standardize their SDLC.

Today, more and more businesses are scaling their IT infrastructure and adapting digital technologies to increase their visibility and revenue. Around 90% of businesses heavily rely on cloud services to run their operations smoothly. Now imagine due to a minor fault in your network system, the whole process comes to a halt leading to unsatisfied customers, reputational damage, and financial losses.

During a recent webinar, Ribbon's Jonathan Homa, Senior Director, Solutions Marketing, and David Stokes, Head of IP Portfolio Marketing, discussed the pivotal role the middle mile network plays for Service Providers in taking advantage of the hugely increased access capacity recent investments in fiber and 5G offer. Service Providers require efficient, cost-effective solutions for this critical link in network connectivity.

Imagine your company’s network is like a busy city’s road system. Just like roads have traffic moving back and forth, your network has data packets traveling to and from destinations. But when the roads get too crowded, or a suspicious vehicle makes its way onto the highway, it can cause traffic jams and security incidents that impact the organization. That’s where NetFlow analyzers come in. In this article, we’ll break down the basics of NetFlow analyzers.

In technology, having “modern” capabilities is standard. Staying ahead of the curve is critical, and keeping outdated technology or processes going can be a recipe for disaster in a complex, ever-changing landscape. Ensuring the smooth functioning and performance of software systems is paramount. This is where modern observability—a sophisticated approach to monitoring and understanding the inner workings of applications and infrastructure—is required.

Key disciplines include power, cooling, facilities, networks, data storage, and sustainability. Leveraging Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software can significantly aid in this process by offering comprehensive visibility and control over resources.

OpenTelemetry (OTel) is an open-source framework designed to standardize and automate telemetry data collection, enabling you to collect, process, and distribute telemetry data from your system across vendors. Telemetry data is traditionally in disparate formats, and OTel serves as a universal standard to support data management and portability.
