Serverless architectures remove the need to provision and maintain infrastructure components like servers and containers, so developers can focus on writing and deploying code. However, serverless architectures also introduce new challenges to monitoring and observability. Teams building serverless applications can iterate quickly and deploy frequent code and configuration changes, making it difficult to track what impact these changes have on your applications.
Maintaining call quality with Microsoft Teams is a process, not a one time event. Network engineers and Microsoft Teams application owners need to be vigilant in preserving optimal call quality to ensure audio, video, and screen-sharing always remain satisfactory for end-users. And vigilance is just as important before the pandemic as it is during the pandemic no matter where your users are working from. In some ways its more important today when working from home.
ObservabilityCON 2020 is live! Over the next few days, Grafana Labs is bringing together the Grafana community for talks dedicated to observability. Day 1 was filled with several new announcements about exciting projects and feature enhancements we’ve been working on for our customers and community. And there will be a lot more to learn about this week, like the session on Loki 2.0 on Wednesday.
This article contains useful tips to implement SOC 2 compliance for containers and Kubernetes. The Service Organization Controls (SOC) reports are the primary way that service organizations provide evidence of how effective their controls are for finance (SOC 1) or securing customer data (SOC 2, SOC 3). These reports are issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
Setting up triggers within AppSignal is a powerful way to discover that the bits started hitting the fan. You can use triggers to get an alert if an error rate is higher than 1%, your server runs out of memory, or even if your hourly login drops to zero. Our latest update makes the creation of triggers much easier.
Automation has evolved from being a management consultant’s go-to-advice to being a central part of every organization’s strategic plan. The biggest misconception about automation is that it is exercised in areas where the company wants to reduce human capital. Contradictorily, automation standardizes mundane processes and frees employees to focus on more value-producing activities that require their unique skills and knowledge.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a comprehensive cloud computing platform, providing an array of services to manage a business’s data infrastructure to help it grow and expand. With the wide range of services provided, it has multiple options to provide you with an elastic approach to optimize your costs. However, many users struggle with controlling their expenditure due to a variety of factors. Getting a complete understanding of how to reduce your AWS operational costs may be a daunting task.
Logz.io has deepened its partnership with Hashicorp over the last few months. Recently, we announced our integration with their service mesh, Hashicorp Consul. Simultaneously, we have worked on and completed an integration with their infrastructure orchestrator (a.k.a, infrastructure-as-code or IAC), Terraform. IACs take manual configurations and treats them as, well, code (along with procedures, build guides, run books, etc.).
Observability is made up of metrics, logs, and traces. These pillars help us understand the behavior of applications under normal execution, which further accelerates identifying anomalies in case of application failure or deviation from normal execution. Logging is not about tracing each and every operation, it is about sensible, consistent, and machine-readable log messages that expose the application behavior.
