For SaaS companies who rely heavily on the public cloud, understanding what’s driving (or hurting) profitability can be tricky. Different customers have different needs and usage patterns, drive different levels of cost, and impact profitability unequally. Cybersecurity has played a central role in CloudZero from the beginning —or really, before it.

Technologies like virtualization and containerization have gained significant traction over the last decade as foundational tools for modern application development.

One of the most important pieces of operating any application stack is making sure you’re aware of the logging events occurring on your running systems. If your development team is like most, then you collaborate with your colleagues using Slack. Being successful while building and operating software includes looking for ways to implement high-visibility operations within your team communication platform.

As a developer, Python for me is a heavy-lifting and versatile language. I’ve used it for building APIs, internet of things projects, file and data conversions, machine learning and (of course) web development.

MQTT is a machine-to-machine communication protocol. Devices publish messages to a broker under specific topics, and other devices subscribe to those topics to receive information. It’s popular because it doesn’t take up a lot of bandwidth, so IoT devices with limited network connectivity can use it. MQTT works because of brokers. Each device sending and receiving data can communicate with potentially millions of other devices while only connecting to one broker.
