Today, we are bringing the AI assistant, the SolarWinds in-product AI agent (also known as SW1 in earlier previews), to Papertrail. Ask your logs a question in plain English and get an answer, with a link back to the evidence.

If your team works with SAP HANA, the main challenge usually isn’t finding another dashboard. The real difficulty is identifying which tool can quickly help you trace vague complaints about slow transactions to their root cause. In many setups, SAP HANA monitoring is divided among native SAP interfaces, cloud monitoring, infrastructure dashboards, and the broader monitoring systems used by the rest of IT. This fragmented approach can slow down root cause analysis.

Here’s when that’s you.

Java is a common development language in part because of how well it works for programming tasks involving objects. Because so many organizations rely on Java applications for business-critical functions, providing adequate resources for these apps is essential.

Sites often try to record information about visitors, which is why you’re often asked if you accept the use of cookies. When users want to remove the information collected, they clear the cache of their browsers. What many people don’t realize, though, is information is also stored in the domain name server (DNS) cache. This guide will explain in more detail what the cache is, how it’s used, and why it’s important to sometimes flush the DNS server cache.
