The latest News and Information on Monitoring for Websites, Applications, APIs, Infrastructure, and other technologies.
In the first blog this demo series, we showed you how to use Restorepoint to remediate after a network breach. In our second blog of this three-part series, we walk you through a change management instance—showing how to speed problem resolution and how to mitigate the impact of poor change management to minimize MTTR.
Our feature development has always been heavily influenced by our users. Some of our most popular features were directly requested by people using our products on a daily basis, which we believe is one of the best ways of developing a product such as ours. If one person wants to monitor something, chances are others will do too. Which is how our new feature: Sitemap Monitoring was incepted!
For developers who’ve created their own instrumentation with the Java Agent plugin, the next phase of the process is regression testing. By performing regression testing, you can ensure that your plugin functions the way it’s supposed to after you’ve made code changes or updates. You’ll have your own plugin, but to illustrate regression testing in this article, I’ll use the plugin in our example repo.
Logging is essential to application development. Logs provide exhaustive, robust information that is useful for tracking all the changes made to an application's code. PHP logs help you track the performance of the method calls within your application, the occurrence of a particular event, and the errors in your application. With proper PHP logging techniques, you can track and optimize an application's performance.
In this article, we will analyze some new features and the impact they might have on the Prometheus community. Here’s our editor’s pick.
Errors are an inevitable part of building software. But while you can't eradicate them, you can definitely mitigate them. If you don't measure, track or resolve errors, you're ignoring a loss in revenue. It's time to pay attention to how much software errors are costing your company and take action, catching them early with methods like smarter testing and crash reporting. Using a few industry averages, you can put a number to the real cost of software errors in your company and start to plug cash leaks like wasted developer time and lost customers.
Netdata’s new Anomaly Advisor feature lets you quickly identify potentially anomalous metrics during a particular timeline of interest. This results in considerably speeding up your troubleshooting workflow and saving valuable time when faced with an outage or issue you are trying to root cause.
There’s a common myth that you may have heard – “only small companies’ websites go down”. This is a classic, especially since it couldn’t be more wrong. Thousands of websites go down, regardless of their size (or the size of their IT team for that), and even Google can, and has, suddenly experienced the dreaded monster that is “the outage”. So far, we are 6 months into 2022 and we’ve already seen a ton of websites go down.
