Docker container monitoring with Netdata

Properly monitoring the health and performance of Docker containers is an essential skill for solo developers and large teams alike. As your infrastructure grows in complexity, it’s important to streamline every facet of the performance of your apps/services. Plus, it’s essential that the tools you use to make those performance decisions work across teams, and allow for complex scaling architectures.

Sentry Integration Platform: Get Insights on the Integrations You Build

Early last year, we launched the Integration Platform to enable any developer to easily create integrations and workflows on top of Sentry. As we continue to build out the platform, we want to give developers visibility into how their integrations are doing. With that, we present the Integration Dashboard!

Introducing Lambda Enhanced Metrics

AWS Lambda decouples the need to provision and maintain a runtime environment from running code, allowing developers to focus on applications rather than infrastructure. But, by abstracting away the underlying infrastructure of an application, serverless architectures introduce new challenges into monitoring and observability.

Monitoring AWS Lambda with Datadog

In Part 2 of this series, we looked at how Amazon’s built-in monitoring services can help you get insights into all of your AWS Lambda functions. In this post, we’ll show you how to use Datadog to monitor all of the metrics emitted by Lambda, as well as function logs and performance data, to get a complete picture of your serverless applications. In this post, we will: Datadog integrates with AWS Lambda and other services such as Amazon API Gateway, S3, and DynamoDB.

Tools for collecting AWS Lambda data

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed AWS Lambda functions and some key metrics for monitoring them. In this post, we’ll look at using Amazon’s native tooling to query those metrics. We’ll also show you how to collect logs and traces that provide further visibility into your Lambda functions. Amazon provides built-in monitoring functionality through CloudWatch and X-Ray.

Key metrics for monitoring AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda is a compute service that enables you to build serverless applications without the need to provision or maintain infrastructure resources (e.g., server capacity, network, security patches). AWS Lambda is event driven, meaning it triggers in response to events from other services, such as API calls from Amazon API Gateway or changes to a DynamoDB table.

What is a 401 Error?

When the web was first constructed, it became clear the servers that sent web pages, images and other digital assets to browsers would need some kind of standardized system of error notification. Since there were several errors that always reported the same basic fault, it was decided this would be a good way to diagnose network problems without specialized tools or elaborate communications protocols.

.NET Performance Optimization: Everything You Need To Know

It’s Friday afternoon, the majority of the development staff has already packed up and headed home for the weekend, but you remain to see the latest hotfix through to production. To your dismay, immediately after deployment, queues start backing up and you begin to get alerts from your monitoring system. Something has been broken and all evidence points to an application performance bottleneck.
