Today’s Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) are trying to grow their business quickly, improving margins and onboarding customers with high-quality tool sets that scale with the business. This means reducing cost, improving onboarding time and building the next generation of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) to deal with threats that are increasing in volume and sophistication.
In the last few years, the usage of databases that charge by request, query, or insert—rather than by provisioned compute infrastructure (e.g., CPU, RAM, etc.)—has grown significantly. They’re popular for a lot of the same reasons that serverless compute functions are, as the cost will scale with your usage. No one is using your site? No problem: you’re not charged.
Mac monitoring is still seen as something of a weird science by many MSPs, but it is going to be a growing issue if you continue to ignore them. We’re increasingly seeing unmonitored Apple devices on our networks, and the harsh reality is, if you’re not monitoring these devices on your customers’ networks you’re not only creating risk, you’re also missing out on a potential revenue stream.
Kubecon 2022 just concluded with plenty of exciting announcements, including our new open-source project, Helm-Dashboard, but we’ve got some more news to share on top of that.
In today’s article, I will be highlighting eG Enterprise’s monitoring capabilities for Amazon’s AWS NICE DCV VDI protocol that was used first in Amazon’s AppStream 2.0 and now subsequently also in WSP 2.0 for the Amazon WorkSpaces service for digital workspaces.
If you’re embarking on a new project and evaluating public clouds, the cost involved will be one of your main considerations. You might decide to use Google Cloud Platform (GCP) as your primary cloud platform. If so, you’ll want to estimate costs based on listed prices. But it might surprise you to find a higher bill than you originally expected.
API is short for Application Programming Interface. The software-to-software interface provides a secure and standardized way for systems to work with each other. API security means implementing practices that protect APIs from malicious attacks and data theft. Thanks to APIs, applications can deliver the information or functionality requested without user intervention. This means our everyday digital experiences remain virtually effortless.
According to the old adage, life’s a journey not a destination. The same can be said for software. It’s unlikely that any developer would ever say that something they built was truly done. There are always bugs to squash, features to add, and updates to implement. As a company intensely focused on time and the context of time, it comes as little surprise that these themes played a significant role in Paul Dix’s presentation for InfluxDays.
