This is a guest post from Kamesh Pemmaraju of Platform9. As organizations move to a containerized world, whether by producing containerized software, consuming it or both, the need for a managed Kubernetes offering and an Enterprise-tested private Docker registry is apparent. With the introduction of Platform9‘s new Freedom Plan for managed Kubernetes, you can combine it with JFrog Container Registry and power up your containerization transformation for free.

At re:Invent in December, Amazon announced the AWS Graviton2 processor and its forthcoming availability powering Amazon EC2 M6g instances. While the first-generation Graviton processor that powered A1 instances was better suited to less compute-intensive workloads, this processor is intended to offer AWS customers a compelling alternative to conventional x86-powered instances on both performance and cost.

Rostyslav Kosmirak is a .NET developer from Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine using Rider and Visual Studio IDE. Kosmirak was not looking for a Dynamic Code Profiler when he came across Prefix. Kosmirak explains that initially he was searching through Google for a log management system when he stumbled on Prefix. Upon downloading, Kosmirak discovered hidden performance problems in his code before they manifested to actual performance problems.

The shift to remote work has taken place almost overnight for many companies, creating enormous challenges for both IT and employees. There are no months of planning, pilot rollouts, or performance stress tests. IT teams are being asked to implement massive changes on a daily basis, despite being vastly overworked and under-appreciated, all while maintaining focus and professionalism.

Hadoop ecosystem now serves as a comfortable home to Big Data now, and the Hadoop data stores now have a greater acceptance across the world by programmers, developers, data scientists, and database management experts. These ecosystems are as convenient as the data storages; however, the inherent reporting system of Hadoop poses a few challenges for the users to overcome.

SIGNL4 provides great support for geolocation information and in multiple ways. When a new alert with geolocation information is displayed in the mobile app, the app renders a map to visualize geographic information of the incident. A double click allows to open the default map application on the mobile device, e.g. to get directions or traffic information.

Maybe you’re interested in finding out more about deep learning? Maybe your current ML analytics are running too slowly or crushing your CPU and RAM? Or perhaps your boss has told you that they need an AI-based app so they can show off to their boss (who will then brag about it to their boss)?

Scylla is an open source database alternative to Apache Cassandra, built to deliver significantly higher throughput, single-digit millisecond latency, and always-on availability for real-time applications. Unlike Cassandra which is written in Java, Scylla is implemented in C++ to provide greater control over low-level operations and eliminate latency issues related to garbage collection.

Identity and access management (IAM) in AWS is a way to grant access to AWS services and collect and transmit data and credentials. Most Kubernetes “Quick Start” guides for AWS do not adequately cover how to manage IAM access in your pods. This blog series will first go over the security issues specific to AWS IAM on Kubernetes, then compare solutions, and then we will end with a detailed walkthrough for setting up your cluster with one of those solutions.

In the last few posts, Sameer has walked you through various aspects of Azure Monitor Logs and I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s a very powerful tool when it comes to gathering and analyzing data from your Azure resources and beyond. In this post and the next, I’m jumping in for Sameer to talk about Application Insights, which is a different beast altogether.
