geeks+gurus: Tackling Common DevOps and Security Issues in Game Development

In this 25-minute conversation, Melissa Sussmann and Jason Dunne will lead a discussion with special guest Yuval Dovrat - Amazon Web Services, Solutions Architect. Discussion will cover the unique challenges gaming presents for DevOps practitioners and security engineering teams. We will cover.

geeks+gurus: Sumo Logic's Debut in the Gartner APM (&O!) Magic Quadrant

Sam Fell (host) Erez Barak (VP, Product Development) Mitch Ashley (Principal Analyst, TechStrong Research) The recent publication of the 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant (MQ) for Application Performance Monitoring caused quite a stir in some circles with the addition of “and Observability” to the title! What does that mean? And what other changes did we spot in this year’s report?!

geeks+gurus: Modern Application Architecture

In this episode of geeks+gurus, Sumo Logic's Melissa Sussmann and NGINX's Damian Curry will discuss the 4 key pillars of modern application architecture: Portability, Scalability, Resilience, and Agility. We then delve into a discussion around Open Telemetry (OTel) in the context of collection and logs management for modern applications. Disparate tracing, metrics, and logging can make it difficult to abide by the modern app pillars we outline. However, OTel offers a unified standard that can elevate observability in your deployment cycles.

Deconstructing AIOps: Is it even real?

This essay explores AIOps and investigates if machine intelligence applies to IT operations (ITOps). I will dive into objection handling around artificial intelligence (AI) in pop culture and address the limitations around data sets and implicit bias coded into machines. Then, I will delve into what this means for ITOps and the ways AI-based parsing utilities can help operators and developers alike. How does Sumo Logic enable anomaly detection and identify threats?

Sumo Logic - Challenging the status quo

As the applications we support evolve, so too must the services that keep them reliable and secure. And, evolve they have! Sumo Logic started life over a decade ago by solving the difficult problem of log management. Our cloud-native architecture eliminated the hassle of managing on-premise log management solutions while scaling on-demand to handle a significant volume of high-cardinality data. Powerful search made exploratory investigation fast and efficient for customers. This was a game changer!

Best practices to collect, customize and centralize Node.js logs

Node.js is an established platform for developing server-side applications in JavaScript. One of the most fundamental concerns that arise during the development of Node.js apps is how to carry out proper logging that will be safe, secure and performant. While there are several options for configuring Node.js logging, a few specific engineering best practices still apply, no matter which option you choose.

How Sumo SREs manage and monitor SLOs as Code with OpenSLO

At Nobl9’s annual SLOconf—the first conference dedicated to helping SREs quantify the reliability of their applications through service level objectives (SLOs)—Sumo Logic shared our contribution of slogen to the OpenSLO community, as well as our commitment to OpenSLO as an emerging standard for expressing SLOs as Code. slogen is an open source, SLO-as-code CLI tool based on the OpenSLO specification.
