Progress is pleased to announce that we have updated our industry-leading Flowmon Anomaly Detection System (ADS) to version 12.5. The latest update has these additions: Let’s take a look.

If your organization isn’t focused on data security, it’s time to make some changes, particularly if you rely on SQL Server to manage and store valuable information. Cyber threats, data breaches, and malicious attacks are on the rise—and they are constantly evolving. That’s why it’s essential to have robust security measures in place. SQL Server has several built-in security features, but you must take a proactive approach to protect your data.

In recent years, network performance and business performance have become increasingly intertwined. Now, virtually every critical employee and customer service is in some way reliant upon network connectivity. When connectivity falters, those critical processes can be impaired or stopped completely. However, for too many teams, it can be difficult to knowledgeably determine how specific outages or issues actually affect a business service. For example, say an operator discovers a device is down.

For decades, the enterprise network was a well-defined fortress and network engineers were its meticulous guardians. However, their visibility and control was largely confined within the parameters of their organization's infrastructure. The cloud revolution and the ubiquity of SaaS applications have shattered these traditional boundaries. Today, for virtually every organization, the internet is the new enterprise network.

Server performance metrics help you figure out what’s going wrong, where your bottlenecks are, and how your system handles load. They give you the data to plan capacity, fix issues before they escalate, and build more reliable infrastructure. In this guide, we’ll go over the core metrics that matter, how to monitor them effectively, and the tools that can help along the way.

We’ve been thinking a lot about synthesis lately. Netdata already samples every metric every second at the edge. Engineers told us the remaining pain point was synthesis, the ability to pull hours or days or months of high‑resolution time‑series into a concise explanation they could hand to a teammate (or use themselves to debug faster).

One of the biggest asks from our open-source community has been to open-source our SSO support, which was part of our enterprise offering. Today, we’re thrilled to announce that support for SSO with Google OAuth is now part of our latest release. Latest version: v0.85.0 Not only that, we've also shipped another highly anticipated feature for our Community Edition: API Keys for comprehensive programmatic access to SigNoz.

After 12 years of faithful service, the TrackJS interface was starting to show its age. Not that it wasn’t working—it was still doing exactly what our customers needed it to do. But when you’re staring at Bootstrap styles from 2012 and a version of LESS that might be officially defunct, it’s probably time for a refresh.
