Digitalization is sweeping across many industries, creating a huge need for innovation. This innovation forces companies to be more agile and deliver faster. However, increasing the speed of your development team doesn’t happen by magic. It’s a metric that isn’t easy to change. How can you adjust to this fast-paced digitalization? I want to introduce you to DevOps.
A few weeks ago I attended the Digital Workplace & Employee Experience Summit in Berlin hosted by Platinum Edge. I’ve been to hundreds of conferences in my professional career but none like this one. Surprisingly, the attendees and speakers weren’t just IT engineers like myself, but instead a mix and mash of human resources, change management, content marketing, and digital analytics professionals—all with skin in the proverbial workplace experience game.
While SIP Voice over IP (VoIP) technology has come a long way to improve connectivity and quality of service, there remains numerous potential points of failure along the path of devices over which the data flows. Unfortunately, if a remote location is experiencing an issue with their data connections, not only won’t they be able to call support to troubleshoot the issue, but they may not be able to send an email either, as both lines of communication rely on the same network.
Grafana Labs turned 5 on Oct. 4. And as a remote-first company, we decided it would be a great excuse to give our team members, who are scattered across 22 different countries, a chance to take their conversations off Slack and celebrate together in person. In London, Berlin, Stockholm, New York City, and Bangalore, Grafana Labs engineers, sales teams, solutions staff, HR, and marketing – everyone! – gathered to meet and mingle, to reconnect and reminisce.
The continuous evolution and growth of the endpoint devices in enterprises makes network security management a primary concern for IT departments. As a sysadmin, you strive to ensure the safety and security of every device in your network. You are on a constant lookout for vulnerabilities and issues that might disturb the shield that protects your enterprise devices. With dynamically changing trends and technologies, it’s easy to miss details that might compromise your network’s armor.
If you've used SCOM you know that it is a true monitoring powerhouse, but one that needs a helping hand surfacing data that matters and getting users engaged. The replacement of Silverlight with HTML5 in the SCOM 2019 web console is a welcome enhancement, but the SCOM web console still shares its design with the administration console, which users find slow, complex and hard to get the visibility they need. Enter SquaredUp.
Over the years DevOps has become quite the buzzword. Although DevOps has been challenging to describe because of its abstract nature, it’s described mainly as a culture change, where Dev and Ops teams collaborate to establish a more agile and reliable framework that counts on trust, transparency, and seamless communication to improve productivity and speed of software development from code commit to deploy.
The dreaded monthly operations and application meeting is edging near. You know which meeting we’re talking about: the one where all the Ops teams get together to talk about what they are seeing, about application enhancements and modifications, potential improvements, and often – about their frustrations!
Amazon Simple Storage Service, widely known as Amazon S3, is a highly scalable, fast, and durable solution for object-level storage of any data type. Unlike the operating systems we are all used to, Amazon S3 does not store files in a file system, instead it stores files as objects. Object Storage allows users to upload files, videos, and documents like you were to upload files, videos, and documents to popular cloud storage products like Dropbox and Google Drive.
