Seamless network performance is the cornerstone of business success. However, network latency—the delay in data transfer initiation—can greatly hinder user experiences, decrease productivity, and even incur financial losses. For businesses aspiring to thrive, it is crucial to address and resolve network latency issues. In this context, network traffic monitoring tools emerge as pivotal solutions.

Drowning in data from complex environments? Ditch the reactive approach. Artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) empowers proactive management with comprehensive observability. According to Gartner, IT spending will continue to mount sky-high despite the global economic instability; the IT expenditure is predicted to surge by 8.6% in 2024. Manual monitoring often fails to keep up with the complexity of modern IT environments, leaving critical issues undetected.

Virtual machines (VMs) deliver flexible, scalable, and cost-effective computing solutions for businesses of all sizes. Microsoft Azure offers efficient and powerful VMs, but as infrastructures boom, the computing environment tries to accommodate the increased demands of the infrastructure. As VM demand increases, it can impact their performance and disk operations. This leads to performance degradation, storage fragmentation, capacity constraints, and increased risk of disk failure.

In today's digital landscape, monitoring IT systems and infrastructure is crucial for ensuring operational efficiency and maintaining business continuity. Australian small and medium enterprises (SMEs) understand the importance of monitoring but often struggle to fully leverage its capabilities. One common challenge is the siloed nature of IT operations, where different components of the IT ecosystem operate independently, leading to fragmented visibility and disjointed management.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud ( EC2) instances provide robust compute resources, but getting the most out of them requires a two-pronged approach: optimizing cost s and optimizing performance. This blog dives deep into strategies to fine-tune your EC2 instances through AWS monitoring for peak performance without breaking the bank.

The recent Microsoft-CrowdStrike outage serves as a stark reminder of the interconnectedness and fragility of our digital infrastructure. What began as a seemingly isolated issue with a software update rapidly escalated into a widespread disruption, affecting businesses across multiple sectors. The incident highlights the potential consequences of software errors, particularly those that impact core system components.

The importance of visibility over the entire technology environment cannot be overstated. This ensures the health, performance, and security of the technology that organizations rely on to deliver digital services. Technology leaders in Australia’s SMEs understand and appreciate the strategic benefits of monitoring.

The visual presentation and aesthetics of a company's online presence are crucial in shaping the company's reputation and customer trust. One such vital aspect is the status page, which is often overlooked yet highly influential. By examining the best status page examples, we can see how a well-designed status page not only conveys reliability and professionalism but also builds users' confidence, reassuring them of the organization's dedication to maintaining transparency and excellence.

As digital intensity rises in Australian SMEs, technology teams face significant challenges. The complexity of expanding technology architectures, the proliferation of applications, and reliance on diverse cloud environments exponentially increases the demand for IT support and operations.

Red Hat OpenShift is an open-source container platform that provides a complete environment for developers to create, launch, and manage applications in both cloud and on-premises settings, leveraging the potential of container technology. With increasing popularity in container orchestration, OpenShift's strong scalability and features attract developers and IT experts. Nonetheless, the intricacy and changing aspects of OpenShift setups demand a tailored strategy for monitoring and observation.
