In today’s digital landscape, cybersecurity is a top priority for organizations. Hackers are continuously finding new ways to exploit vulnerabilities and compromise systems. PowerShell, a powerful scripting language and automation framework developed by Microsoft, has unfortunately become a favored tool among attackers due to its capability to run.NET code and execute dynamic code downloaded from another system (or the internet) and execute it in memory without ever touching disk.

TrackJS is the best frontend error monitoring tool. It’s all we do and we do it well. To keep it simple we have just two different JavaScript agents. One for the browser, and one for Node server environments. That’s it. No other languages or platforms are supported. Just JavaScript.

If you ask us to score 2023, we would give it a 10 out of 10. Not only because we released Grafana 10 and celebrated the 10-year anniversary of the Grafana project with the first-ever Golden Grot Awards and the launch of a four-part documentary series.

This is the first post in a 3-part series about shifting Observability left. When it comes to the reliability and performance of your applications, compromise is not an option in the world of software development. This is where observability can help developers achieve a more robust and scalable infrastructure.

Elastic is transforming the log experience to meet the needs of modern workflows In the absence of other observability signals, generally everything in your infrastructure (hardware, software, and services) emits log lines. Logs, however, are often structured at a developer’s whim and, first and foremost, serve the developer’s needs (e.g., debugging).

For businesses reliant on customers’ positive digital experiences to achieve their goals, the seamless operation of cloud applications and infrastructure is paramount for financial success. Observability holds a pivotal role in modern enterprises, offering critical insights into your IT system’s health and performance. However, persistent issues of complexity and high costs have plagued the observability landscape.

Networks are the lifeblood of organizations. They facilitate data flow, applications, and services while keeping operations running smoothly. However, there’s a critical challenge that often goes unnoticed – network visibility gaps. Progress WhatsUp Gold release 2023.1, available as of December 19, 2023, is set to change that. This release includes several exciting updates meant to close gaps in Network Visibility.

Modern systems look very different than they did years ago. For the most part, development organizations have moved away from building traditional monoliths towards developing containerized applications running across a highly distributed infrastructure. While this change has made systems inherently more resilient, the increase in overall complexity has made it more important and more challenging to effectively identify and address problems at their root cause when issues occur.

As we draw the curtains on a transformative year in the realm of IT monitoring solutions, it’s a pleasure to reflect on the pivotal developments that have shaped the landscape of monitoring technologies in 2023. This year has seen remarkable strides in enhancing monitoring capabilities, and we’re thrilled to share these exciting advancements with you.

The backbone of a modern organization—its IT infrastructure—is intricately woven. Along with the relentless pursuit of achieving seamless operations and sustained growth, the challenges of a modern IT infrastructure led to the proliferation of specialized sub-teams. These specialized teams collaborate to contribute to the health and performance of the IT infrastructure.
