I heard about challenges such as entire printer systems breaking down during peak times, operations workforces ordering duplicate or unnecessary supplies, and admins not knowing what’s in their inventory.
It’s no secret that IT organizations are facing increasingly complex challenges. Device proliferation, demands to access data from anywhere, ensuring security both on and off campus—and this year, a major shift to remote work—have IT departments struggling to stay above water.
Vulnerability remediation is still an ongoing struggle for organizations. A simple mistake could cause no issues, or it could set off a wide-scale, devastating, corporate breach. Why is this?

We are in the era of process automation. Today, businesses are dependent on one or more software products. Therefore, software quality becomes crucial.
These days, the internal workings of Linux applications involve many different moving parts. Sometimes, it can be rather difficult to debug them when things go wrong or run slower than expected. Tracing an application’s execution is one way of understanding potential issues without diving into the source code. To this end, we wrote an app-tracing tool called etrace, designed to detect performance bottlenecks and runtime issues in snaps.
