Splunk and Dynatrace are two powerful platforms in the realm of observability and performance monitoring. Each offers unique strengths that cater to different monitoring needs. In this article, we'll explore the features, pros, and cons of both tools, and introduce an exciting alternative that combines the best of both worlds.

Kafka can ingest real-time traffic data, vehicle positions, and road conditions, process this data using Kafka Streams, and then publish optimized routes back to the vehicles. If traffic conditions change, Kafka can instantly process the new data and update the routes accordingly. Apache Kafka can be an essential component in optimizing fleet tracking by providing a scalable, reliable, and real-time data processing platform.

In the rapidly evolving world of IT automation, the need for speed, flexibility, and ease of use has never been more critical. As organizations grow increasingly reliant on digital infrastructure to support everything from daily operations to innovative service delivery, the pressure is on IT teams to adapt quickly, automate repetitive tasks, and maintain control over complex systems.

It is day 3 of SigNoz Launch Week 2.0, and we’re super excited to unveil features related to one of the core tenets of SigNoz. With SigNoz, you can monitor logs, metrics, and traces under a single pane of glass. With three signals under a single pane of glass, the scope for getting more context while debugging your application is immense. Using SigNoz, you can already correlate your traces with logs and check traces associated with APM metrics.

We’re thrilled to announce that SigNoz has achieved both SOC2 Type II and HIPAA compliance! This accomplishment marks a significant milestone in our commitment to building a secure and trustworthy observability platform for our users. Visit our trust center for more details.

Odds are that a software engineer today is really focused on one place: pre-prod. Short for “pre-production,” this is slang for an environment where software code operates in a prototype phase of its development lifecycle. Common sense would have one believe that this is a safe space, a workbench of sorts, where problems can be found and remediated.

Elevated connection churn can be a sign of an unhealthy distributed system. Connection churn refers to the rate of TCP client connections and disconnections in a system. Opening a connection incurs a CPU cost on both the client and server side. Keeping those connections alive also has a memory cost. Both the memory and CPU overhead can starve your client and server processes of resources for more important work.

The 5G Edge is revolutionising the telecommunications industry by significantly enhancing network performance, bringing computing power closer to users, and dramatically reducing latency, enabling faster and more efficient services. This advancement is crucial for a variety of applications across different sectors, including smart cities, autonomous vehicles, healthcare, and industrial automation.

In today's interconnected world, ensuring network reliability and performance is not just important—it's a must. Network alarms serve as the first line of defense in identifying and mitigating potential issues, providing network operations teams with the actionable insights they need to respond swiftly and effectively. To truly empower network operations teams to boost agility and efficiency, these alarms must be real-time and actionable.
