Monitoring the AVD Broker

A legacy way to deploy applications and desktops on Azure was often to put some Server 2022 VMs (Virtual Machines) in Azure running the standard RDS (Remote Desktop Services) roles – session hosts, brokers, gateway etc. and then pay the compute costs for your session hosts, brokers, and gateways, set up a public IP address and open ports.

How to change the Tiering of Azure Blobs

In this blog post, I will show you how easy it is to move a single Azure Blob or even select mutlipe or the complete container and move those blobs from any storage tiering to another with just a few clicks. There are cost benefits moving your Azure Blobs down to a lower Storage Tier, Hot being the most expensive, with a cool a little bit cheaper, and the Archive Blob Tier having the lowest cost option. For most Azure Storage Cost saving ideas, we cover some in another blog.

10 Future Alternative Methods of Data Storage That May Change the Cloud for Good

By 2025, it's expected that the amount of data produced per day will be 463 exabytes. 1 exabyte is 1 million terabytes or 1 billion gigabytes—that's a lot of data! Safely storing data ensures that all the knowledge you gather over the years is retained and maintained. Proper storage is super vital for all individuals, businesses, and other organizations. There are many ways to store data, from old-fashioned paper records to modern digital methods.

Introducing Software Delivery Shield for end-to-end software supply chain security

Organizations and their software delivery pipelines are continually exposed to growing cyberattack vectors. Coupled with the massive adoption of open source software, which now helps power nearly all of our public infrastructure and is highly prevalent in most proprietary software, businesses around the world are more vulnerable than ever. Today’s organizations need to be more vigilant in protecting their software development infrastructure and processes.

The Power Of Combining Kubernetes And Non-Kubernetes Cloud Spend

Whether you’re new to Kubernetes or a bona fide wizard, it may seem like getting any meaningful cost data out of it is a miracle. This is because many organizations that migrate to Kubernetes unwittingly step into the Black Box of Kubernetes Spend. In pre-Kubernetes life, teams could allocate costs by tagging resources.

How to Monitor and Troubleshoot Multi-cloud Applications

Multicloud and hybrid cloud applications are deployed on multiple cloud vendor platforms, including on-premises private cloud. While these platforms offer tremendous benefits by providing a reliable and scalable platform for fuelling digital transformation, they also add significant monitoring complexity. Site reliability engineers (SRE) need multicloud monitoring visibility to: Why is this important?

How to build an EKS kubernetes cluster with Ubuntu 20.04 on FIPS mode

Many clients have specific requirements for running their EKS Kubernetes clusters with Ubuntu: OS alignment across platforms, sysadmin knowledge or specific kernel features such Real Time Kernel or FIPS mode. If your workloads need to run on FIPS mode for compliance, you will not only need to create your containers on FIPS mode (in other words, with FIPS certified crypto libraries) but also, since containers share kernel with host/worker nodes, you need to have also the worker node's kernel running on FIPS mode.
