Operations | Monitoring | ITSM | DevOps | Cloud

A few weeks ago, my good friend Josh Cook wrote a blog post for Power Automate about getting the error message when implementing the try/catch pattern with a Flow. We discussed if this could be used with Logic Apps, and Josh confirmed that it could, even though the Logic App documentation doesn’t cover it very well. Josh’s original Flow post is- Grabbing an error message from a failed run.

The biggest challenge in this regard is that a lot of the infrastructure comes from different manufacturers. While these manufacturers provide solid solutions for monitoring their hardware, it can be very difficult to oversee the monitoring of all hardware. A hardware monitoring software with an integrated console can monitor all the hardware in the server ecosystem. Hardware monitoring should be an integral part of managing a server and infrastructure.

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is playing an increasingly pivotal role in supporting hybrid-cloud, DevOps environments, where Dev teams need to release updates fast and Ops need to avoid errors and failures in production. Powered by integrations to monitoring, orchestration, provisioning and ITSM tools, Interlink’s SRE solution brings improved understanding of where threats to the health of your IT services might lurk within DevOps workflows.

You may have heard the latest Docker announcement about the new rate limits for container image pulls. Starting November 1st, Docker will start to limit Docker Hub usage based on your subscription level and block pull requests that exceed imposed limits. Not only that, Docker has also put in place a new retention policy, six months for free accounts, for inactive images (originally slated for November 1, this policy has been delayed to mid-2021 due to community feedback).

On the 22nd October 2020, Canonical released an Ubuntu Desktop image optimised for the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi Foundation’s 4GB and 8GB boards work out of the box with everything users expect from an Ubuntu Desktop. It is our honour to contribute an optimised Ubuntu Desktop image to the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s mission to put the power of computing into people’s hands all over the world.

Making the move to serverless architecture? By accelerating app development time, serverless isn’t just a boon for business, it’s also a win for engineering teams. Gartner explains: “Serverless architectures enable developers to focus on what they should be doing — writing code and optimizing application design — making way for business agility and digital experimentation.”

The reliability and stability of your services directly depend on how well you understand the state of your infrastructure and services. A great monitoring system will allow you to understand your infrastructure better. Monitoring the performance of your system allows you to not only fix current problems but also make changes to your infrastructure to avoid them in the future.

The Netdata Agent is well-equipped to solve monitoring and troubleshooting challenges for single nodes. We love that the Agent is so valuable to our users, but Netdata Cloud is designed for infrastructure monitoring. That’s why we’re working so hard to offer even more capabilities and help users monitor and troubleshoot infrastructures of all sizes, entirely for free!
