Routers are essential for connecting devices. Routers decide where the internet goes and how fast it should be. Because they play such a crucial role, it's vital to keep an eye on them and make sure they're doing their job well. This act of keeping an eye on routers is what we call "router monitoring." Monitoring routers isn't just about checking how the routers are doing; it's about making sure the whole network works well.

Improving software health, security, and operational maturity are continuous programs—you’re never really “done” maintaining standards of quality. But what if specific parts of that program feel more urgent? Maybe you want to ensure all software has a README file attached, and at least 1 reviewer assigned... by next month? Hey, you gotta start somewhere!

In the fast-paced world of software development, the ability to deliver and iterate quickly on APIs and microservices is essential. Traditional testing methods can be time-consuming and often slow down development cycles. That is where API and service mocking tools like Microcks can come to the rescue. Microcks shipped as a new community add-on for the recent MicroK8s 1.28 release. Microcks is a Cloud Native Computing Sandbox project dedicated to API mocking and testing tools on Kubernetes.

Dynamic observability is the concept that the amount of data collected should scale based on signals from your environment. Elastic infrastructure is not a new concept. Much of the internet is powered by services that provision more resources based on signals derived from metrics like cpu load, memory utilization and queue depth. If we can use tools to right size our infrastructure, why can’t we also use tools to right size the amount of data we collect?

Healthcare is undergoing a massive transformation, and network innovation is at the heart of it. But how can we simplify this complex process and make it practical for healthcare providers and, specifically, IT managers in the sector? Let's break it down.

What are OpenTelemetry, and OpenCensus and how to migrate from OpenCensus to OpenTelemetry.

Robust app security is non-negotiable, but the spiraling costs that can come with it are. In the context of application delivery, security plays a pivotal role in maintaining business continuity, protecting sensitive data, and upholding a solid reputation. However, the journey to build a formidable defense at the load balancing and reverse proxy layer can quickly become costly with a few wrong turns. Security is important, but buyers don’t have to break the bank to implement it.
