Debugging Containerized React Apps

In your lifetime as a frontend developer that works with React, you must have come across several issues with debugging a containerized React application. I bet you can relate, you’re certainly not alone. Containerization has become an integral part of best practices for software development teams that want to create, test and deploy applications quickly and efficiently. However, despite its advantages, it also comes with new challenges for debugging and troubleshooting applications.

OpenTelemetry-powered infrastructure monitoring: isolate and fix issues in minutes

The process of building and maintaining modern, cloud-based applications requires a new approach to infrastructure monitoring. Traditionally, engineers would try to isolate a specific infrastructure component causing an issue — and fix it alone, without diving into code. Today, DevOps engineers must understand how application performance is related to their infrastructure. Infrastructure, for DevOps engineers, is an enabler to deploy code.

Plan better and preempt bottlenecks with predict for metrics

Nothing is certain in this world except for death, taxes, and that you will eventually run out of disk space. You may have used our unique predict operator to query logs and forecast future values (we’ve even heard of customers predicting their ingest volume for Sumo Logic log data to better forecast their usage and budget!) — and wanted to do the same with metrics. With the recent general availability of the predict for metrics operator, you can.

Secrets Management: Use Cases, Best Practices, and Tools

To provide proper visibility into the health and status of your systems, observability tools require access to the internal and external services you’re using, and Sensu is no different. In the past, this could mean exposing sensitive authentication credentials like usernames and passwords with local environment variables or even by including the secret information in your monitoring configuration.

NetOps for Application Developers: Understanding the Importance of Network Operations in Modern Development

True observability requires visibility into both the application and network layers. For companies reliant on multi-zonal cloud networks, the days of NetOps existing as a team siloed away from application developers are over.
