The Kemp Flowmon Packet Investigator 11.1 is easier to use and covers a broader scope of root-cause analysis scenarios.

More CIOs are seeing the value of network automation, which can improve network efficiency and cost, as well as help them manage increasingly complex IT environments. But like the adoption of any new technology, network automation presents a number of challenges and considerations for CIOs. In our recent webinar, PCCW Global’s CTO Paul Gampe and VP of Development and Operations Jay Turner shared some tips and insights into how to begin the move to intelligent networking…

HAProxy generates over a hundred metrics to give you a nearly real-time view of the state of your load balancers and the services they proxy, but to get the most from this data, you need a way to visualize it. InfluxData’s InfluxDB suite of applications takes the many discrete data points that make up HAProxy metrics and turns them into time-series data, which is then collected and graphed, giving you insight into the workings of your systems and services.

Auto-instrumenting AWS Lambda Monitoring didn’t originate through a focus group or business plan. It started as a hackathon project that addressed the tedium of removing manual code instrumentation. Developer environments often include hundreds of AWS Lambda functions. And our existing instrumentation required initialization code to be manually placed on every single function.

In a single, monolithic repository, also known as a monorepo, you keep all your application and microservice code in the same source code repository (usually Git). Typically, teams split the code of various app components into subfolders and use Git workflow for new features or bug fixes. This approach is natural for most applications or systems developed using a monolithic architecture. Code in such a monorepo typically has a single build pipeline that produces the application executable.
