Managing software in complex network environments: the Snap Store Proxy

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.

5 Ways CloudZero Found Savings Using Its Own Platform

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.

Enhancing Data Center Efficiency and Sustainability with Power Capacity Effectiveness

PCE is a performance metric that evaluates the effective utilization of power in data centers. It measures the ratio of IT equipment power to the total power consumed, encompassing all aspects of the facility’s operations, including cooling and lighting. Unlike traditional metrics, PCE provides a comprehensive assessment of how power is used within data centers, aiming to optimize the actual power capacity available.

Supercharge FinOps Programs with Resource Guardrails

Time and time again we hear the same statements from FinOps teams with respect to what is holding back optimization of wasteful cloud resource consumption. Engineers and App Owners are interested in helping but stop short at actually taking actions to reduce that waste. There are many reasons for this main sticking point when it comes to application owners and developers taking action.

A Guide to Continuous Security Monitoring Tools for DevOps

DevOps has accelerated the delivery of software, but it has also made it more difficult to stay on top of compliance issues and security threats. When applications, environments and infrastructure are constantly changing it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain a handle on compliance and security. For fast-moving teams, real time security monitoring has become essential for quickly identifying risky changes so they can be remediated before they result in security failure.
