We’re happy to partner with AWS on their launch of AWS Network Firewall by providing a cloud-native integration that gives customers real-time visibility into network traffic and automated correlated events surfaced by AWS. Too often, virtual private cloud (VPC) traffic is a black box leaving many security operations teams unable to connect potential threats to their broader infrastructure.

We are excited to partner with AWS to get real-time log data from AWS Lambda through the new AWS Lambda Runtime Log API and AWS Lambda Extensions. AWS Lambda Extensions enable us to more easily integrate into the AWS Lambda execution environment to control and participate in the AWS Lambda lifecycle and the AWS Lambda Logs API enables us to collect function, platform, and extension logs. Through this integration, Sumo Logic and AWS make it possible to reduce operational overhead and improve performance.

MongoDB is a leading NoSQL database that has proven itself through time as a stable and easy-to-use system of great flexibility. There are numerous tutorials and real-world success stories that show how MongoDB has helped with supporting the database needs of certain organizations and projects. It’s fair to say that using MongoDB proves to be a solid choice for integrating with web-based applications and microservices serving as a database system or even as a monitoring aggregator itself.

Log analysis helps organizations determine the best way to optimize application functionality while giving development teams a leg up in root cause analysis. With that said, it’s not feasible to scroll through thousands of lines of log entries in a text editor. Instead, development teams need modern tools that enable them to centralize, filter, and analyze their logs in a way that allows them to glean valuable insights in a time-efficient manner.

As digital transformation accelerates across all industries, it has become increasingly important for businesses to get better, much better at the development and delivery of new software to drive revenue and engage customers in new ways. Ironically, most businesses are flying blind in how they track, benchmark and optimize their software development. Teams that consistently innovate and deliver new, high quality software quickly generate significant competitive advantage for their companies.

Platform architects, SREs, developers and DevOps staff for mission-critical modern apps know shaving 15 minutes off service incidents that take 20 minutes to resolve, four times a year, is the difference between meeting a 99.99% availability objective and missing it.

We are in the midst of an unprecedented convergence of events that are forcing enterprises to dramatically change how they secure their modern businesses. With the acceleration of digital transformation from COVID-19, work-from-home initiatives, the continued growth of SaaS and the increasing adoption of microservices-based applications, the modern enterprise threat landscaping is transforming rapidly.

Containers and Kubernetes have revolutionized the way many teams deploy applications. But with the many benefits that these technologies provide come new challenges. Key among those challenges is security. By adding more layers and complexity to application environments, containers and Kubernetes create new opportunities for attackers and new security threats for Kubernetes admins to address.
