Windows file server auditing is a great way to monitor what is going on with all the files stored on your company’s servers. You can find out who is accessing files, creating new files, deleting files, copying files, and moving files. To tap into the benefits of Windows file server auditing, you must first understand and use audit policy best practices.
A good ping is extremely important for successful online gaming, particularly because it enhances the gaming experience and reduces the chance that server glitches will take place. A lower numbered ping is considered better because it is the amount of time that an echo is received from the server that you are connecting to. A shorter period of time to receive a response from the server will lower your overall ping and likely enhance your internet connection to the server.
“Sociotechnical” — I learned this word from Liz Fong-Jones recently, and it immediately entered my daily lexicon. You know exactly what it means as soon as you hear it, and then you wonder how you ever lived without it. Our systems are sociotechnical systems. This is why technical problems are never just technical problems, and why social problems are never just social problems. I work on a company, Honeycomb, which develops next-gen observability tooling.
To round out our series on the serverless open source community, Itay Herskovits, CTO of Funzing.com – a community marketplace for local experiences – picks 10 must-have Serverless Framework plugins. As serverless technology has evolved, a few early-movers have become staples of serverless development. One of these is Serverless Framework, an extensible serverless application management tool that helps you maintain, support, and deploy your serverless code.
March 10th, 2020 • By Jon de Andrés Frías In this two-part series of blog posts, we’ll explain how Kafka has helped us in removing parts of our architecture that we consider to be “legacy”. During the development of a project sometimes we need to take decisions on our architecture or software design that may not be the best decisions from a pure and perfectionist technical perspective.
If you've been on the hunt for a new developer podcast, then you understand just how difficult and fruitless that pursuit can be. You can spend hours online sifting through coding podcasts, programming podcasts, and DevOps podcasts only to realize one simple thing: none of them focus on your preferred programming language! With thousands of different developer podcasts out there, the problem is magnified exponentially. Fortunately, we at Scout APM have nothing but expertise and time on our hands.
You’re done setting up your first graph panels. You want to do more, look around the visualization settings, and discover the settings for the X and Y axes. You stumble over the configuration for a “Right Y” axis. You ask yourself, “Why on earth would I need another Y axis?” You toggle it back and forth and change some settings, yet that makes no difference to your graph. What gives? Never fear.
Big ideas need creative solutions. Creative solutions mean solving out of the box engineering problems. When you’re solving these new problems, strong error monitoring is imperative to the development cycle. You don’t want to spend all your time chasing down issues and struggling to track the source of errors.
Elixir 1.10 was recently released, and with that release came a little-known, but very interesting feature—compiler tracing. This feature means that as the Elixir compiler is compiling your code, it can emit messages whenever certain kinds of things are compiled. This ability to know what’s going on when Elixir is compiling our code might seem simple, but it actually opens up a lot of doors for opportunities to build customized compile-time tooling for Elixir applications.
This post is part of a series on troubleshooting NGINX 502 Bad Gateway errors. If you’re not using PHP-FPM, check out our other article on troubleshooting NGINX 502s with Gunicorn as a backend. PHP-FastCGI Process Manager (PHP-FPM) is a daemon for handling web server requests for PHP applications. In production, PHP-FPM is often deployed behind an NGINX web server. NGINX proxies web requests and passes them on to PHP-FPM worker processes that execute the PHP application.
