ClickHouse is an open source, column-oriented database management system designed for OLAP (analytical) workloads. ClickHouse supports various data formats and SQL queries, and is popular for clickstream analysis as well as log processing use cases. We are pleased to announce that ClickHouse now has a dedicated observability integration in Grafana Cloud, which makes it easy to troubleshoot issues, track potential latency, and prevent data loss.

Azure Data Factory is a cloud-based data integration service provided by Microsoft Azure that enables users to create, schedule, and orchestrate data workflows to move and transform data from various sources to various destinations.

In the not-too-distant past, the debate was between on-prem and cloud-native. You’re now faced with the choice of choosing between the different cloud infrastructure providers, and inevitably, someone will throw in the phrase “vendor lock-in”. And not having a response for the famed “vendor-lockin” sometimes leads to building things that are much more complex than required basis the stage that the product is in.

A 404 error page, commonly known as a page not found or simply a 404 page, indicates that a user has arrived at the requested site, but the URL is empty. Let's look at the URL address https://www.site24x7.com/blog as an example.

Citrix NetScaler is a web application delivery controller (ADC) that can make applications run more efficiently. In some cases, they can run up to five times faster than without Citrix NetScaler. Also, it can reduce web application costs for the owner with server offloading, and it ensures that applications are readily available with its application load balancing features. Citrix more than 400,000 customers worldwide, with 99% of Fortune 100 companies and 98% of Fortune 500 companies.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, website speed is crucial in retaining attention. One of the ways to achieve faster website loading times is by implementing Image lazy loading. This technique ensures images are loaded only when visible on the user’s screen, reducing the initial load time and improving the website’s overall performance. In this article, we will explore the concept of image lazy loading, how it works, and the different methods to implement it on a website.

At Traceloop, we’re solving the single thing engineers hate most: writing tests for their code. More specifically, writing tests for complex systems with lots of side effects, such as this imaginary one, which is still a lot simpler than most architectures I’ve seen: As you can see, when an API call is made to a service, there are a lot of things happening asynchronously in the backend; some are even conditional.

A new ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation called MichaelKors has recently emerged, which targets Linux and VMware ESXi systems. The cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike warns that this trend is significant since ESXi does not support third-party agents or antivirus software which makes it an attractive target for cybercriminals.

Engineering organizations that ship fast have Observability as part of their core DNA.
