Heroku is a platform for deploying, running, and managing applications, which is written in a variety of programming languages, including Python, Java, C#, JavaScript, PHP, and others. Heroku's goal is to free you up to focus on your applications rather than infrastructure management. Logging is usually included in infrastructure management. Heroku provides a high-level log maintenance tool. In this Heroku logging article, we'll learn how to get the most out of Heroku logs.

Are you surprised? Are you under where are the first four tips? I start this series of blog posts on my blog, and you can see and read the previous Best practices, Tips, and Tricks here: And I will be sharing some of them here and others on my blog. So stay tuned for both blogs. Of course, the most recurring task is adding comments to our triggers and actions, but it is always good to know you to delete them. Some of you may be thinking that is a trivial task, simple like adding a comment.

Are you migrating to Azure or another public Cloud? A client of ours did, and they didn’t use Galileo Cloud Compass. Do you know what happened? They didn’t experience the savings they expected, and their Azure invoices were a lot more than expected—about 60% more. There are a couple of reasons for this. One is that they didn’t have an accurate way to price their workload for the Cloud. Just think about understanding the pricing model for each of the major Cloud vendors!

It's too difficult for product teams to find the right vendors. Vendors obscure details, promise everything or downright lie, have special pricing for those who know how to ask, and there are just too many of them! This problem is getting worse because of the "Cambrian explosion" in cloud tooling, a blossoming in the number of solutions and niche specializations.

InfluxDB is increasingly being used in IoT solutions to store data from connected devices. Now it can also be used on IoT edge gateways as a data historian to analyze, visualize and eventually transmit aggregated IoT data up to a centralized server. In this article we’re going to look at three simple ways you can connect an instance of InfluxDB on your IoT Edge device to another instance of InfluxDB in the cloud.

“It’s in the cloud!” Whether you’re talking about workplace technology or struggling to explain file-sharing to a technologically-challenged relative, we’ve all been trying to learn the ins and outs of cloud computing over recent years. It’s no easy task, as cloud computing has been changing rapidly – which brings us to the latest evolution: the distributed cloud.

One of the benefits of deploying software on the cloud is allocating a variable amount of resources to your platform as needed. To do this, your platform must be built in a scalable way. The platform must be able to detect when more resources are required and assign them. One method of doing this is the Elastic Load Balancer provided by AWS. Elastic load balancing will distribute traffic in your platform to multiple, healthy targets. It can automatically scale according to changes in your traffic.
