We are pleased to announce that we’ve recently launched new and improved alerting features which have been rolled out to users across all of Logit.io’s operating regions. As part of these improvements, we have sought to improve platform usability and have now included a new menu from which users can readily configure a number of popular alert types straight from our pre-configured templates.

Windows applications constitute a large portion of the services and applications that run in many organizations. When moving to a Kubernetes-based architecture, there is a need to support these as well. Up until April 2020, the lack of container support within the Windows operating system left Linux container images as the only viable option for Kubernetes container deployment.

Just like that, another year has gone by full of remote work, virtual conferences, and lengthy Zoom calls. And, although we were not able to see our fellow Splunkers in person at.conf21 that didn’t stop us from previewing the latest enhancements to Splunk Enterprise Security. And now, it gives us great pleasure to announce that Enterprise Security 7.0 is available!

People may not reminisce over 2021, but as Winston Churchill once said, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” 2021 swooped in on the coattails of a major supply chain data breach, and a lot of the challenges we experienced during this past year seemed to follow suit. To celebrate the best and hopefully move away from the worst that 2021 had to offer, this look back at 2021 trends can inspire us all to learn, and most of all, show us how to move forward.

Maintaining an endpoint, especially a customer-facing one, requires constant monitoring, whether using REST or GraphQL. As the industry has looked for solutions to build a more adaptive endpoint technology, it is also a must to monitor these endpoints. GraphQL and REST are two different technologies that allow user-facing clients to link to databases and platform logic. Both GraphQL and REST include monitoring techniques.

Preventing data loss for data in motion is a challenge that LogStream Persistent Queues (PQ) can help prevent when the downstream Destination is unreachable. In this blog post, we’ll talk about how to configure and calculate PQ sizing to avoid disruption while the Destination is unreachable for few minutes or a few hours. The example follows a real-world architecture, in which we have.

We are excited to announce that Splunk Log Observer Connect for Splunk Enterprise, previewed at.conf21, is now generally available! Log Observer Connect is a new feature that lets observability users explore the data already being sent to existing Splunk instances with Splunk Log Observer’s intuitive no-code interface for faster troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.

Docker containers are a great way to create lightweight, portable, and self-contained application environments. Logging is critical for every application since it gives valuable information for troubleshooting, evaluating performance issues, and drawing an overall picture of the behavior of your architecture. This article presents a thorough tutorial covering all you need to know to start with Docker logging. It also provides some recommended practices for optimizing the logs of your containerized apps.

The last couple years have set new global benchmarks for the data and technology sector, putting companies that have considerably accelerated their digitisation processes in the front row. Our relationship with technology also changed immensely. One that has created new expectations by and for all stakeholders – from consumers to enterprise technology companies and governments.
