What Is a Linux Server? Everything You Need to Know (2026)

An open-source foundation for resilient infrastructure: on-prem, cloud, and hybrid. IT downtime costs organizations an average of $9,000 per minute, or more than $1 million per hour. That’s real money lost when websites crash, transactions fail, or internal systems go offline. For many organizations, avoiding those losses starts with choosing the right server operating system (OS). Why? The OS sets the foundation for how stable, secure, and cost-efficient your infrastructure will be.

Introducing Application Metrics: Track the signal, see the spike, jump to the trace

A few weeks ago we had a bug with Session Replay. Replays were failing in some browsers once more than 1,000 video segments loaded. We had no idea how often it happened or who was hitting it, and because the failure didn’t always produce an error, we had no way to find affected users to reproduce it. Before, we could’ve answered this with spans or logs, but it’s clunky — spans are often sampled, so you can miss outliers; logs are less structured and tend to change over time.

ActiveMQ JMS 2.0 Implementation Guide: Simplified API, Transactions & Spring

For most of JMS's lifetime, writing a simple producer required creating a ConnectionFactory, creating a Connection, starting it, creating a Session, creating a MessageProducer, creating a Message, calling send(), and then closing the producer, session, and connection with the close calls safely wrapped in finally blocks to prevent resource leaks. Every developer knew the pattern. Every developer wrote it slightly differently. Every code review had the same comments about resource management.

Introducing the Coralogix CLI: Headless Observability for Every Agent

This article is a high-level overview of the Coralogix CLI. For a deeper look at how it works in practice, read the full technical deep dive here. Agent-driven investigation sounds simple: read the alert, query the data, return the cause. In reality, most agents either overload their context window with raw logs or guess at queries and return incorrect results.

Observability vs Monitoring: What's the Real Difference in 2026?

Understand the real difference between observability and monitoring — and why modern IT teams in 2026 need both. Monitoring tells you something is broken; observability explains why.
