When people think about reliability, it’s easy to focus on incident response and moving fast to fix outages. This reactive approach to reliability can very quickly lead to burnout as you bounce from incident to incident. But that’s not the only way to think about reliability.
A Docker container is a portable software package that holds an application’s code, necessary dependencies, and environment settings in a lightweight, standalone, and easily runnable form. When running an application in Docker, you might need to perform some analysis or troubleshooting to diagnose and fix errors. Rather than recreating the environment and testing it separately, it is often easier to SSH into the Docker container to check on its health.
Multi-cloud seems like an obvious path for most organizations, but what isn’t obvious is how to implement it, especially with a DevOps centric approach. For Cycle users, multi-cloud is just something they do. It’s a native part of the platform and a standardized experience that has led to 70+% of our users consuming infrastructure from more than 1 provider.
Syslog is a standard for sending and receiving notification messages–in a particular format–from various network devices. The messages include time stamps, event messages, severity, host IP addresses, diagnostics and more. In terms of its built-in severity level, it can communicate a range between level 0, an Emergency, level 5, a Warning, System Unstable, critical and level 6 and 7 which are Informational and Debugging. Moreover, Syslog is open-ended.
In the webinar, Expert Insights: Navigating Outages Like a Pro, Howard Beader, VP of Product Marketing at Catchpoint, interviewed Howard Holton, the CTO and Lead Analyst at GigaOm. The two Howards delved deep into the critical subject of Internet Resilience and its significance in today’s digital age. Here’s a recap of the key takeaways.
Software development, agility and efficiency are paramount. Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) practices have revolutionised the way we build, test, and deploy software. When coupled with the power of Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestration platform, organisations can achieve a level of deployment excellence that was once only a dream.
