Nobody likes resolving merge/rebase/cherry-pick conflicts. I also don’t, but I’ve found a scheme how to reduce the built-in headache. In this post I’m going to share my findings as well as practical examples.
Observability is a very important aspect of software that’s often taken for granted. You need to have visibility into what your application is doing at different levels to better understand an issue when it occurs.

In the early 1900s, Taiichi Ohno architected and introduced Andon cord in Toyota's manufacturing plants. The problem: This costs a lot of money. Production costs have always been high. In 1984, it cost NUMMI $15,000 per minute. That's $42,758 in today's value.
Digital transformation requires organizational evolution. Constant demand for rapid delivery of upgrades and new products forces change. Surely, the old days of managing monolithic applications housed in private servers are over. Applications consist of virtualized, containerized, and serverless code that’s networked via APIs across a hybrid infrastructure of public and private clouds.
HashiCorp Consul began as an open-source project for service discovery. It has evolved to provide other valuable functionality like secure service mesh to help secure microservice architectures based on service identity, but also the ability to achieve repeatable application deployment lifecycles via Network Infrastructure Automation and control access to the service mesh via Consul API Gateway.These features are considered the four core pillars of Consul service networking.
We’ve been celebrating a few big milestones 🎉 at incident.io in the last few months. We were recently discussing product metrics (as you do for fun on a Friday afternoon 🤓) , and Lawrence was very surprised with a particular stat around the number of workflows that have been run using incident.io.
Much like in other production environments, the production of cloud services is based on and orchestrated by a plethora of tools-making part of cloud services' overall cloud infrastructure. Given how cloud services are as complex as they are intricate, a vast range of detailed steps need to be performed in a certain order for the production environment to run smoothly, whether it's carrying out maintenance procedures, updates and upgrades, or resolving issues to prevent downtime.
