We are proud to announce our recent decision to become Premier Members of the Academy Software Foundation (ASWF). This association aims to bring together members across the media and entertainment industry to improve collaborations involving open-source software.
6 February 2023 – Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, announced today that it doubled revenue for its Channel/Reseller Program in 2022, grew its active reseller base by more than 50%, and grew the overall channel business by 70%. Canonical is an industry leader in open source private clouds, the reference platform for all major public clouds. The Ubuntu operating system is the most widely used Linux distribution that runs on the desktop, workstations, and all internet connected things.
Modern business of any direction requires the introduction of IT technologies. Large companies can afford to hire a team of specialists who support customers and company employees in information technology. At the same time, specialists manage to implement new solutions in their platforms simultaneously. Small and medium businesses need help to afford such a solution.
With a standard model for monitoring data across the organization, different teams can use a common infrastructure and extract maximum value from it. Monitoring (also sometimes referred to as observability) involves collecting and analyzing data from a source over time to track its health and/or performance. Because change occurs over time, virtually all monitoring data is time series data, meaning it has a timestamp.
Historically, software development and SRE have worked in silos with different cultural perspectives and priorities. The goal of DevOps is to establish common and complementary practices across software development and operations. Sadly, in some organizations true collaboration is rare and we still have a way to go to build effective DevOps partnerships.
IT tools are similar to romantic relationships. Over time, you tend to fall into the same old dull routines, like Rupert Holme’s song Escape (The Piña Colada Song). That routine — collect dataset, route, ingest ($$) and then search, collect dataset, route, ingest, then search, … this approach is not only breaking your heart but your budget too.
As we have previously announced: Notifications-only sub-users are here! After receiving your feedback, we realized that full-featured sub-users may not be the ideal option for everyone. This new feature is ideal for our UptimeRobot users who want to get alerted teammates or clients but don’t want to share access to account or monitors. You can manage your team mates and their access on the Team page. Here you can add / edit / remove seats with write, read, or notify-only access.
Honeycomb recently announced the launch of Service Map, a new feature that gives users the ability to quickly unravel and make sense of the interconnectivity between services in highly complex and intricate environments.
Having your systems monitored by a reliable solution is important, but how do you ensure that the right people are informed about issues that arise? Identifying problems is the first step, but they also need to be routed to the appropriate individuals. Keep in mind that employees may not always be sitting in front of the dashboard. This means being available outside of normal working hours to quickly respond to emergencies and problems, including not only weeknights but also weekends and holidays.
