What are the current options to migrate from OpenSearch to Elasticsearch®? OpenSearch is a fork of Elasticsearch 7.10 that has diverged quite a bit from itself lately, resulting in a different set of features and also different performance, as this benchmark shows (hint: it’s currently much slower than Elasticsearch).

Metrics are closely associated with cloud infrastructure monitoring or application performance monitoring – we monitor metrics like infrastructure CPU and request latency to understand how our services are responding to changes in the system, which is a good way to surface new production issues. As many teams transition to observability, collecting metric data isn’t enough.

Predictive maintenance is a maintenance strategy that uses machine learning algorithms trained with Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) data to make predictions about future outcomes, such as determining the likelihood of equipment and machinery breaking down. Using a combination of data, statistics, machine learning and modeling, predictive maintenance is able to optimize when and how to execute maintenance on industrial machine assets.

One of the things I really love about working for Cribl is the ability to help our customers optimize their data. Microsoft Windows Event Logs are something I have always looked to as a proverbial Rosetta Stone to help translate semi-structured, classic-style events into something more efficient and less resource-intensive to search. Extracting field values requires a large number of regular expressions to parse the events, which isn’t ideal.

Today, we released our systemd journal plugin for Netdata, allowing you to explore, view, search, filter and analyze systemd journal logs. Like most things about Netdata, this is a zero-configuration plugin. You don’t have to do anything apart from installing Netdata on your systems.This is key design direction for Netdata, since we want Netdata to be able to help even if you install it mid-crisis, while you have an incident at hand.

Capital expenditures (CapEx) and operational expenditures (OpEx) are two ways organizations categorize their business expenses. Every organization has a variety of expenses, from office rent to IT infrastructure costs to wages for their employees. To simplify accounting, they organize these costs into different categories, two of the most common being CapEx and OpEx.

Container orchestration is the process of managing containers using automation. It allows organizations to automatically deploy, manage, scale and network containers and hosts, freeing engineers from having to complete these processes manually. As software development has evolved from monolithic applications, containers have become the choice for developing new applications and migrating old ones.
