Modeling and Unifying DevOps Data

“How can we turn our DevOps data into useful DevSecOps data? There is so much of it! It can come from anywhere! It’s in all sorts of different formats!” While these statements are all true, there are some similarities in different parts of the DevOps lifecycle that can be used to make sense of and unify all of that data. How can we bring order to this data chaos? The same way scientists study complex phenomena — by making a conceptual model of the data.

Monitoring Redis Clusters with Prometheus

This article will outline what Redis database monitoring is and how to set up a Redis database monitoring system with MetricFire. Then we’ll show what the final graphs and dashboards look like when displayed on Grafana. We will be using Prometheus and Grafana to power the monitoring, and we'll use a simulated Redis DB to generate the data for the Grafana dashboards. ‍ ‍

Troubleshooting Wi-Fi Issues for Hybrid Workers: Key Requirements for NetOps Teams
