InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated is a fully-managed InfluxDB offering that lets you run enterprise-grade workloads on cloud infrastructure dedicated to your workload and your workload alone. A common request from those running enterprise-grade workloads on InfluxDB is the ability to use single sign-on (“SSO”) to authorize access to InfluxDB. SSO is now available as a paid option for InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated clusters.

Slovo Koltovich, Principal GPM at Microsoft, delivered the keynote at Integrate 2024. He began by discussing Azure Integration Services (AIS), a comprehensive platform enabling the creation of tailored solutions to meet unique requirements. The primary advantage of AIS lies in its focus on security and compliance. With nearly 800 connectors, AIS facilitates connections to numerous data sources. Microsoft invests billions annually in security, with thousands of personnel dedicated to it.

Would that make a difference? Of course it would!

One of the most unique features Oh Dear offers is the broken links and mixed content crawler. We will crawl your site for all links, reporting any broken pages to your defined notification channels. Recently, we encountered degraded performance with our crawler service due to a breaking change in an underlying library called Guzzle. This caused HTTP 505 responses on the first page of each site, blocking further crawling and resulting in false positive reports.

Application performance monitoring (APM) setup and strategies vary based on the application’s infrastructure design. Containers managed by orchestration tools like Docker Swarm or Kubernetes are dynamic and ephemeral, significantly affecting monitoring strategies. Container development speeds up an organization’s ability to build, deploy and scale new features.

Implementing a consistent and reliable alerting system across a sprawling organization is a significant challenge for just about any engineering team. For example, diverse infrastructures across different teams and numerous team-specific customizations may not translate well when investigating specific incidents. Inconsistent alerting practices can eventually lead to fatigue, leading to triggering of alerts that may not be relevant or actionable.

The new GKE Compliance makes maintaining compliance for your Kubernetes clusters is easier than ever before.

A Comprehensive Guide for SREs Build Foundational Knowledge on How etcd fits into the Kubernetes Ecosystem etcd is the single source-of-truth data store for the Kubernetes cluster. As a Key-Value store with advanced features, etcd stores mission-critical Kubernetes data: configuration data, the cluster state and metadata. This information is key for the Kubernetes cluster to scale and self-heal. If etcd malfunctions, it can cause failures on the Kubernetes cluster.
