Operations | Monitoring | ITSM | DevOps | Cloud

As enterprises begin to migrate away from device-centric management to a service-centric model of IT operations, it is vital that IT operations and management (ITOM) leaders start by addressing the need for comprehensive visibility across their IT infrastructure.

There are a lot of important components needed to run a successful web application. The language you code it in, which developers are working on the project, and the integrations with other services are enormous aspects of the process. One essential part of running an application, however, is monitoring.

Microsoft's System Center Operations Manager, SCOM, is a resource-intense tool to work with. Not the least when it comes to competence and time. The SCOM platform can come across as rather heavy to work with and often requires some expertise to take advantage of its benefits fully.

Software quality has been a topic and an area of interest since the dawn of software itself. And as software evolved so did the techniques and approaches to assuring its high quality.

Observability is one of the most popular topics in technology at the moment, and that isn’t showing any sign of changing soon. Agentless log collection, automated analysis, and machine learning insights are all features and tools that organizations are investigating to optimize their systems’ observability. However, there is a new kid on the block that has been gaining traction at conferences and online: the Extended Berkeley Packet Filter, or eBPF. So, what is eBPF?
