Amazon FSx is a fast, highly available cloud file system service. Compared to traditional file systems, AWS FSx offers improved performance along with simplified management and security. The use of this service removes the headaches of provisioning hardware and maintaining backups, and combines the familiarity of your preferred filesystems with the reliability of AWS.

When we are faced with the challenge of hybrid cloud monitoring, the golden dream of a single monitoring platform is reawakened in us. It would be ideal to have a tool that would allow us to see in a single screenshot what is happening throughout our platform, including those resources that we have decided to establish in the cloud, in other words, it should not discriminate between private and public networks.

Amazon Simple Storage Service, widely known as Amazon S3, is a highly scalable, fast, and durable solution for object-level storage of any data type. Unlike the operating systems we are all used to, Amazon S3 does not store files in a file system, instead it stores files as objects. Object Storage allows users to upload files, videos, and documents like you were to upload files, videos, and documents to popular cloud storage products like Dropbox and Google Drive.

Amazon ECS allows you to easily run containers in AWS in units called tasks. Groups of identical tasks are called services, and groups of services running on the same infrastructure are called clusters. Since it is critical to the health of your application, properly monitoring ECS is a top priority for most teams. In this blog post, we will go over how Blue Matador monitors ECS tasks automatically and without configuration.

We are excited to announce CloudWisdom, a SaaS platform that reduces the cost and risk of operating public cloud infrastructure for enterprise businesses. CloudWisdom optimizes public cloud computing and capacity by recommending configurations unique to your application workloads using machine learning algorithms. This enables our customers to avoid performance bottlenecks and financial waste commonly associated with environments hosted in the public cloud.

Over the last decade, DevOps has become an important part of software engineering culture, influenced by the wide adoption of microservices, containers and cloud computing. A recent step in the evolution of cloud-based and microservice architecture is the serverless computing – a code execution model where the cloud provider takes total responsibility for the operating system and hardware management.
