Redundant logs are a common nuisance in observability pipelines of all kinds. In large environments, excess logs can multiply data costs to unsustainable amounts. Log sampling is the process of randomly sampling logs to produce the same valuable insight with dramatically reduced data flow. Configuring agents in a pipeline to appropriately sample logs can be a pain. Pipeline managers, like BindPlane OP, make that process simple and scalable.

While it makes for bleak reading, the frenzy of sales and online shopping activity surrounding Black Friday, means this pre-holiday season is a key period for cybercriminals. And each year we see an increase in cyberattacks during what should be a feel-good time. The picture is all-the-more worrying in 2022, as this Black Friday weekend (25th-28th November) falls on the same date as the USA vs England World Cup game – a highly- anticipated day of betting for bookmakers.

In-context dashboards for Google cloud storage, customizable, create alert, view logs for better storage system insights at project level and bucket level.

Do you want to use Kafka? Or do you need a message broker and queues? While they can seem similar, they have different purposes. I’m going to explain the differences, so you don’t try to brute force patterns and concepts in Kafka that are better used with a message broker.

Have you ever wondered how productive we could be if we could measure and monitor our brains and be alerted every time we overused them? While there’s no practical way to measure the performance of the human brain without expensive medical equipment, you can track metrics like these for your computer’s brain—its central processing unit (CPU). A device’s performance depends on the condition of its CPU; a device cannot function properly without a CPU.

The final post of a three-part guide to assuring performance and availability of critical cloud services across public and hybrid clouds and the internet Kentik Synthetics adds integrated, autonomous, pervasive performance test telemetry to our market-leading network traffic analytics and observability platform, the Kentik Network Observability Platform. For modern clouds, proactive synthetic monitoring can no longer be delivered as a standalone tool.

Part two of a three-part guide to assuring performance and availability of critical cloud services across public and hybrid clouds and the internet Monitoring your user traffic is critical for knowing the quality of the digital experience you are delivering, but what about the performance of new cloud or container deployments, expected new users in a new region, or new web pages or applications that don’t have established traffic? This is where synthetic testing can be invaluable.

You know what data centers* are, we’ve told you a lot about the on this blog. Today, however, it is time to check out a particular aspect such as the singleness of their architecture**. In addition to what role they play in the present and which one they will play in the future. * Physical facility that organizations use to host their information, applications, critical data… **There’s a good example of alliteration, great rhetorical figure. So let’s go!

Not in a reading mood? You also can watch the talk I gave at DjangoCon 2022. One of Sentries core company values is “for every developer”. We want to support every developer out there with our tools. But not every developer uses the newest or widely adopted tech stack, so we also try to support older versions of libraries and frameworks.

A Citrix Virtual Apps and Deskstops or Citrix Desktop as a Service deployment does not comprise Citrix components only. For instance, SQL databases are crucial components of every Citrix VAD stack and therefore need to be monitored and managed intensively. Besides whether your Citrix delivery controllers have proper access to them, you obviously need to track the database performance and capacity as well.
