In a little over 4 months, we have crossed 4k+ stars on our GitHub repo. In this article, we explore what we can learn from our GitHub stars.

As developers, we would rather be writing code all day than doing anything else. Especially meetings or fighting production problems. Unfortunately, both are part of the job. All developers need to understand the basics of web performance monitoring. It won’t help you get out of meetings, but it will help prevent production fires and put them out faster. Although, I guess it might also help you avoid meetings about production problems.

Serverless applications, more often than not, have logic distributed over multiple functions and services, which with growth and agents and wrappers attached, can get more complex and costly. This is where Serverless monitoring comes in to help. But what is Serverless monitoring? Serverless monitoring allows developers to gain important insight on what happens during each execution and event, errors become more easily visible, and measuring resource consumption for each invocation is possible.

Measuring digital employee experience is currently the focus of most corporate IT teams. IT teams are now responsible for ensuring employees can collaborate and get work done irrespective of where their workspace is located - remote, in-office, and/or hybrid work locations. As the remote and hybrid workspace strategy evolved and became the norm over the last year, digital employee experience monitoring tools are in the spotlight.

We introduced Grafana Enterprise Metrics (GEM) last September to give centralized observability teams the ability to provide a multi-tenanted, horizontally scalable Prometheus-as-a-Service experience for their end users. Since then, we’ve continued to make improvements and introduce new functionality. In this blog, I wanted to take a deeper dive into two of the exciting new features released with GEM 1.4.

As your customer base grows, your responsability to provide a functionning service at all time grows too. Let's see how you can a add a few lines of code and earn peace of mind!

ASP.NET Core is an open source web development framework that enables you to develop .NET applications on macOS, Linux, and Windows machines. The introduction of .NET Core in 2016 dramatically increased the number of ways to build and deploy .NET applications. This means that you need the ability to easily monitor application performance across a wide variety of platforms, such as Docker containers.

Selecting a web hosting service is essential for making your site go live. But if you are starting up or have a limited budget, it is usually challenging to buy a hosting service costing as much as $100 per year. Most of the paid plans don't offer a free trial.
