How can your organization leverage continuous integration (CI) to manage your infrastructure at scale in a reliable, secure, and repeatable fashion? If you are maintaining multiple projects, the monorepo strategy can be a useful approach that allows for a unified build and CI process and makes it easier to enforce coding standards and organizational practices. It can also help DevOps and platform teams streamline dependency management to reduce conflicts and compatibility issues.

We know speed to market matters—now more than ever. Bill Gates said in the nineties that “if you don’t meet customer demand quickly enough, without sacrificing quality, someone else will.” But software quality also matters, affecting everything from customer loyalty to developer experience. Poor quality causes immediate issues like bugs and crashes, as well as building technical debt and making updates needlessly hard.

observIQ provides a unified telemetry platform using open standards and a powerful agent to collect, enrich, and transmit data. Built on an open-source framework, OpenTelemetry, it focuses on log management, metrics, and traces for modern observability at scale.

As your organization adopts modern technologies and scales its workloads, it’s critical that your CI/CD environment follows suit to maintain smooth development and testing workflows. Adopting modern CI/CD tools (e.g., pipeline runners and testing frameworks) and best practices can increase the agility and resilience of your CI/CD environment as well as enable your teams to configure new jobs, stages, and tests to meet changing business requirements.

One important consideration when adopting a tool is whether it can integrate with your existing workflows and services. Each scenario can be highly specific, which is why it’s important to look for tools that have a public API or customizable webhooks. Last year, Grafana OnCall expanded its webhook support to allow for more complex setups, offering greater flexibility to interact with other services during alert group events.

DX Application Performance Monitoring (DX APM) provides powerful capabilities for monitoring the health and performance of your vCenter infrastructure. In addition to capturing and analyzing important monitoring data, the solution will correlate vCenter performance metrics with metrics of other applications monitored by DX APM.

For the fourth consecutive year, Broadcom has been named the highest-scoring leader and outperformer in the 2024 GigaOm Radar Report for Network Observability. In this latest report, GigaOm defines network observability as “a category of solutions that go beyond device-centric network monitoring to provide truly relevant end-to-end visibility and intelligence for all the traffic in your network, whether on-premises, in the cloud, or anywhere else.”

IT teams know how much data they need to examine server performance, network health, and user activity—it’s a constant stream. However, it can get overwhelming if you’re bombarded with information, and it may be difficult to separate the signal from the noise. This may cause a workflow that is not streamlined or problems ranging from delayed responses to missed IT issues, which can disrupt critical business processes.

With IT modernization and increased cloud usage, more organizations are looking to Software-as-a-Service offerings for their security and data needs. Microsoft Azure Sentinel is a cloud-based SIEM that security operation centers rely on for data analytics. Cribl makes it easier for Microsoft Azure Sentinel customers to get data into their security analytics platform. Leveraging Cribl Packs, organizations can easily ingest data from various vendors with various formats while requiring little effort.
