Monitoring Ruby on Rails applications with Applications Manager

Ruby on Rails is the go-to framework for organizations to build flexible, database-driven web applications with high speed and efficiency. Enterprises of all sizes rely on it to build user-friendly applications. But like any other modern web stack, optimizing the performance, availability, and reliability of Rails applications, especially in production environments, requires more than just reactive bug fixes.

Why Your Business Needs APM: 10 Key Benefits You Shouldn't Ignore

In today’s digital world, how well your applications perform has a big impact on how people see your business, and how well it runs. Whether you are in finance, e-commerce, SaaS, healthcare, or media, your users expect everything to work smoothly, all the time. Even a few seconds of slow performance can lead to lost sales, lower productivity, and unhappy customers. That’s why Application Performance Monitoring (APM) is so important.

How To Hire In FinOps: Roles, Responsibilities, Skills, Interview Questions, And More

FinOps is booming as a function. The global cloud FinOps market will grow from $13.5 billion in 2024 to $23.3 billion in 2029 — a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%, according to Research and Markets. That’s in response to sharp increases in cloud spend. About $723 billion is expected to be spent on public cloud services in 2025, up from $596 billion the year before according to a Gartner report.

How Datadog Cloud Network Monitoring helps you move to a deny-by-default network egress policy at scale

When organizations first begin deploying workloads on Kubernetes, it's common for them to start with a permissive egress traffic policy that allows any workload to reach the internet. This approach can make it easier for teams to stay agile and to get services up and running in fast-moving environments. But as your Kubernetes footprint grows, it's important to minimize public internet access on a per-workload basis to improve your organization's security posture.

Enginears Podcast: Redefining Developer Productivity in the AI Era

Developer productivity is top of mind for all engineering organizations. As AI accelerates software development, leaders face a fundamental question: Are we truly building faster, or just building more? And more importantly, are we building the right things, and building them well? In this new era, speed alone isn’t enough. High-impact teams must ensure their work aligns with customer value and is delivered with exceptional quality.

Taking AI Apps From Prototype to Production

At this year’s AWS Summit in New York, agentic AI took center stage with Amazon’s launch of Bedrock AgentCore — a powerful step toward turning AI prototypes into scalable, production-ready applications. From low-code workflows to turnkey infrastructure, a new generation of tools is enabling teams of all skill levels to build, deploy, and monitor AI agents faster than ever.

Zero instrumentation distributed tracing is here: Meet OBI on Open Telemetry

Modern systems generate enormous amounts of telemetry. The hurdle is collecting clean, connected traces without rewriting code or babysitting a fleet of language agents. That’s why Coralogix backed eBPF from the start. eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) executes sandboxed programs inside the Linux kernel, without modifying kernel source code. This method allows probes to see every request, at runtime with no instrumentation, and with near zero per‑request overhead.
