Back to the Basics: The Foundational Role of DDI in Any Network

In the ever-evolving landscape of networking, there are a plethora of three-letter acronyms that make up the wonderful alphabet soup that is a part of every engineer’s vocabulary. Whether it’s TCP, UDP, SSH, or one of the many other dozens, one acronym is commonly left out of the discussion: DDI. These seemingly simple letters are often overlooked or rarely thought of, but they are a crucial foundation for managing a stable, secure, and efficient network.

Since we founded Checkly, our vision has been that monitoring should sit in your repository, be codified, and scale with your software development. There is no alternative to MaC as it allows your engineering team(s) to work together, create and maintain checks, and ultimately own their monitoring.

Managed Apps on Public Cloud: Why Operations Matter, Part I

You might be tempted to think that running an app on a public cloud means you don’t need to maintain it. While that would be wonderful, it would require help from the public cloud providers and app developers themselves, and possibly a range of mythological creatures with magic powers. This is because any app, regardless of the infrastructure on which it runs or its output, requires maintenance in order to yield accurate and reliable outputs.

Stay Ahead of Known Vulnerabilities with Automated Patch Management

The consequences of not patching are everywhere: remember the Log4j vulnerability that grants hackers complete access to your devices? The best way to prevent this from happening is to use a patched version of Log4j — so why did this become a catastrophic and prolific security vulnerability event? A: Because people hate, forget, or simply dismiss patching as a labor-intensive part of managing their infrastructure.
