Organizations using Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud traditionally leveraged Reserved Instances (RI) to realize cost savings by committing to the use of a specific instance type and operating system within the AWS region. Nearly 2 years ago, AWS rolled out a new program called Savings Plans, which give companies a new way to reduce costs by making an advanced commitment of a one-year or three-year fixed term.

Fourteen billion dollars – that’s the projected global market size for serverless, which is supposed to grow by about 26 percent annually in the next few years, according to the recent Global Serverless Architecture Market report. The fast pace of adoption of serverless is hardly surprising because the technology can save significant costs for companies. It can enable them to build and deploy software and digital products without providing and maintaining any virtual or physical servers.

Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform provides greater support for automation, especially when dealing with multiple resources in a complex cloud infrastructure. In this blog, learn how Terraform can make your life simple by launching multiple instances in one-go. If you are new to Amazon AWS and need to create or launch multiple resources in one go, then nothing is better than using Terraform count. The Terraform count argument allows you to launch as many resources as you wish, of the same kind.

Netdata excels in collecting, storing, and organizing metrics in out-of-the-box dashboards for powerful troubleshooting. We are now doubling down on this by transforming data into even more effective visualizations, helping you make the most sense out of all your metrics for increased observability. The new Netdata Charts provide a ton of useful information and we invite you to further explore our new charts from a design and development perspective.

This is a short blog post about a pattern that we’ve observed more frequently among some of the large enterprises: the use of AWS S3 as both an observability lake and a data bus. AWS S3’s simple API, ubiquitous language support, unmatched reliability and durability, retention options, and numerous pricing plans have made it the de facto standard for storing massive amounts of data.

In this post, we’ll walk through our journey of launching Cribl LogStream Cloud on AWS Graviton instances. In order to put our journey into perspective, it is worth spending a few moments to describe the product and its resource requirements.

With all the focus on public cloud infrastructures, it’s easy to believe that there is no room for on-premises deployments of infrastructure. However, on-prem deployments are not likely to completely go away because often it’s just the right thing to do.

Having an open, safe and efficient digital administration is the new objective of every Government these years. Although the recent pandemic may have hampered any master plan for system evolution and optimization, there is still some hope. The hybrid Cloud reaches the public sector, among other advances. We’ll tell you all about it in our blog!
