Deploying Applications on Kubernetes

In a previous article, we discussed why we frequently hear that developers are not that keen on Kubernetes. You can read it here.

Better than what? Why data center baselines matter in cloud migrations.

For most organizations, the cloud is a promise for better outcomes. Let’s be honest, why would you go through all that effort otherwise?

According to leading independent researchers teknowlogy | PAC, open source platforms – and Kubernetes in particular – are central to the future of digital factories. The PAC RADAR report offers a detailed market analysis of industrial digitalisation trends, and it predicts that Kubernetes-based platforms that bring together edge and cloud technologies will soon dominate the digital factory landscape.

Expand your Sleuth monitoring reach with Datadog

Sleuth is a deployment tracking tool that gives you a deeper level of insight into your CI/CD workflows by tracking all of your team’s deployment tools from a single dashboard. Sleuth integrates with different components of your deployment pipeline and develops an understanding of your development processes. It can then automatically alert you as to when code is shipping, when manual approvals are needed, and when failures occur.

Introducing composite charts and Metric Correlations

We're really excited about supercharging Netdata Cloud's infrastructure monitoring experience with composite charts. These charts look just like the ones you're familiar with, but feature real-time, per-second aggregated metrics from any number of distributed nodes from across your infrastructure. You can still pan, zoom, and highlight to your heart's content while also changing the aggregate function, filtering nodes, or jumping straight into single-node dashboards for root cause analysis.
