A server monitoring tool is software that monitors the operation and general health of servers and other components of IT infrastructure. These tools continuously track and gather information on a variety of parameters, such as CPU utilization, memory usage, disc space consumption, network traffic, and application performance. So, you get real-time insights into a server’s functionality and health, and IT specialists can identify and address issues before they affect end users.

IT asset discovery is a critical process for any organization looking to manage its IT infrastructure effectively. With a rapid growth of dependency on technology for everyday work, and an increasing amount of remote work, keeping track of all hardware and software assets within an organization can be challenging. And this is where IT asset discovery tools come in to help you through the process. These solutions provide clear and reliable access to everything connected to your company network.

We’re happy to announce that the Sentry SvelteKit SDK is now generally available and ready to help you monitor your SvelteKit application. Last year, we entered the Svelte ecosystem by creating an SDK for Svelte, which provides support for Svelte single page apps. We knew that SvelteKit was already quite far along back then and we kept a close eye on its development. We also received a lot of requests from the community to support SvelteKit.

The number of tools used by distributed teams to manage incidents has multiplied over the years, leading to a valley of tool sprawl. Throw in manual processes and you’ve got too much toil and multiple points of failure. Maintaining disparate tools and systems isn’t just unwieldy, it’s expensive. Our latest capabilities add to the PagerDuty Operations Cloud to make it easier than ever for teams to consolidate their incident management stack.

With Cribl Stream, our customers are experiencing choice and control over their data that would have been a pipe dream (or maybe I should say a pipeline dream) before. The ability to get the right data to the right destination in the right format is extremely powerful. Stream can optimize the data being sent to expensive destinations; you can remove unnecessary or redundant fields, drop unnecessary events, or even pull valuable metrics from verbose logs. Optimizing your data has a few benefits.

“Observability” seems to be the buzzword du jour in IT these days but what does it actually mean, and how is it any different from plain, old monitoring? In simple terms, observability is the ability to understand how a system is performing and how it is behaving from the data that system generates. It is not just about monitoring metrics or collecting logs, but also understanding the context of those metrics and logs, and how they relate to the overall health of the system.

This is the third and final post (for now) in the series about developing email templates with MJML and deploying them to AWS. In the previous post, we developed a Gulp script to automatically build HTML from the MJML file and insert it in a template file for AWS. In this post, we will set up an automated build and deployment of the email template using Azure DevOps. A quick recap.

Kubernetes is now the de-facto standard for container orchestration. With more and more organizations adopting Kubernetes, it is essential that we get our fundamental ops-infra in place before any migration. In this post, we will learn about leveraging Jenkins and Spinnaker to roll out new versions of your application across different Kubernetes clusters.

At BugSplat, we have a unique view of how uncaught crashes can impact individual teams (and entire companies) through our work building tools to find and fix bugs in live applications. We've seen firsthand the difference it can make when teams have a workflow for reporting every defect that makes it into production and when they don't.

This blog dives into detail about one of StackState’s most unique and powerful features, Kubernetes dependency maps. Dependency maps are Kubernetes service and infrastructure maps, enhanced with real-time topology, that show dependencies between all components at any moment in time.
