Discover how the DNS protocol translates domain names into IP addresses, how DNS lookups chain through resolver servers, and how to read a DNS packet.

E-commerce companies lose $6M+ yearly to Internet disruptions. A Forrester study reveals how Internet Performance Monitoring cuts losses by over half.

Your authoritative servers return the right IP, but users still hit the old one. Here’s how to find stale glue records and fix the parent-zone referral.

See how synthetic monitoring exposed a hidden HTTP redirect attack, and why HTTPS, HSTS, and delivery-path visibility keep your users safe from interception.

Observability can cut alert noise, speed up incident response, reduce downtime, and give engineers more time for planned work. LogicMonitor customers have used those gains to lower costs and make better infrastructure decisions.

Edwin AI and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform help ITOps teams move from correlated alerts and root cause analysis to governed, auditable remediation. When an outage starts, the first alert is only the first artifact. The harder work follows: grouping related signals, separating symptoms from cause, identifying the affected service, and deciding whether the next action is safe to run.

VMware vSphere is the platform that unifies ESXi and vCenter into a complete solution for running and managing virtual machines. VMware vSphere is not a single product, but a full virtualization platform and product suite that includes ESXi, vCenter, and other tools for managing workloads. It provides the foundation for running virtual machines (VMs) on a hypervisor and gives IT teams the ability to centralize management across multiple servers, clusters, and applications.

AIOps helps IT teams turn operational data into faster decisions, reduced noise, and more efficient incident response.

This is the eighth blog in our Azure Monitoring series, where we look at a challenge many organizations face as Azure and multi-cloud environments expand: monitoring tool sprawl. What starts as a few monitoring solutions for different needs can turn into disconnected dashboards, duplicate alerts, and fragmented visibility.

Self-healing ITOps helps restore services faster by combining AI-driven analysis, automation, and recovery validation. Organizations have invested heavily in monitoring, observability, and AIOps. These platforms are effective at identifying issues, but incident resolution is often still a manual process. Engineers still need to investigate alerts, determine the appropriate remediation, and verify that services have recovered.
