Monitoring your domain URLs and server IPs is important for many reasons and plays a crucial role in ensuring the health, performance, and security of a network or web application. Monitoring hosted IPs within your infrastructure helps track the availability and uptime of websites and services. It also allows organizations to identify and respond quickly to downtime or outages, minimizing the impact on users.

This blog explores a possible approach to collecting and formatting OpenShift Container Platform logs and audit logs with Red Hat OpenShift Logging Operator. We recommend using Elastic® Agent for the best possible experience! We will also show how to format the logs to Elastic Common Schema (ECS) for the best experience viewing, searching, and visualizing your logs. All examples in this blog are based on OpenShift 4.14.

As technology evolves, it has become incredibly difficult for IT teams to work in the conventional siloed environment. Technologies such as NetDevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) call for collaborative efforts between various IT teams. This allows them to develop and deploy products much faster, streamline and automate their operations, and proactively detect and rectify issues as they crop up.

As we’ve talked about before, our app is a monolith: all our backend code lives together and gets compiled into a single binary. One of the reasons I prefer monolithic architectures is that they make it much easier to focus on shipping features without having to spend much time thinking about where code should live and how to get all the data you need together quickly. However, I’m not going to claim there aren’t disadvantages too. One of those is compile times.

As enterprises grapple with the evolving landscape of security threats, the need to safeguard internal networks from the broader internet is increasingly important. In environments with restricted internet access, it can be difficult to manage software updates in an easy, reliable way. When managing devices in the field, change management and compliance policies can introduce even more complexity to the update process. You can solve these challenges using snaps and the Snap Store Proxy.

Let's face it! Kubernetes is the standard for container orchestration, reshaping how we deploy and manage applications for the last 8 years - do you even remember when you run "docker run " on an application server? 😁. However, it's crucial to recognize that Kubernetes was never initially designed with the everyday developer in mind.

Infrastructure as code (IaC) is the act of writing infrastructure configurations as code so they can be understood, repeated, and enforced with less manual effort. IaC is also a powerful way to convert tribal knowledge into technical knowledge. It’s a far-reaching and essential part of managing infrastructure at scale, with benefits that have expanded to platform engineering, security and compliance, network administration, and so much more.

Naturally, our own platform forms the backbone of our cloud cost savings strategy. And before releasing any new feature, we try it out ourselves to see how well it helps us manage our own SaaS costs. If it works well for us, that means there’s already one satisfied user in the world — and there will likely be more!

In this article, we will thoroughly address RMM Software (Remote Monitoring and Management Software) and its essential role for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). We will explain the core functions of RMM, from remote monitoring to efficient management of client devices, highlighting its key advantages such as reducing labor costs and improving productivity.
