How the Cribl SRE Team Uses Cribl Products to Achieve Scalable Observability

This is the first of a planned series of blog posts that explain how the Cribl SRE team builds, optimizes, and operates a robust Observability suite using Cribl’s products, Cribl.Cloud operates on a single-tenant architecture, providing each customer with dedicated AWS accounts furnished with ready-to-use Cribl products. This provides our customers with strict data and workload isolation but presents some interesting and unique challenges for our Infrastructure and operations.

GreenOps - a guide to creating a sustainable cloud

Green Operations (GreenOps) is an approach to creating an eco-friendly cloud. The aim is to minimize energy waste, increase renewable resources, and decrease their carbon footprint on the planet. Several public cloud providers are aiming to become carbon-negative. By 2030, Google Cloud plans to operate on carbon-free energy around the clock. Microsoft Azure has committed to being carbon-negative by 2030, and AWS aims to run its operations on 100% renewable energy by 2025.

Deciphering your bandwidth usage to ensure smooth network operations

In a world where businesses require uninterrupted network operations and people rely on applications for their day-to-day activities, understanding bandwidth utilization is critical. Rather than playing whack-a-mole with your bandwidth problems, you can monitor your network’s bandwidth usage and make informed decisions based on clear data. Bandwidth utilization metrics tell you how much data an interface, switch, or router can handle and how much data is currently passing through them.

Jaeger vs. Grafana Tempo: A Comprehensive Comparison for Distributed Tracing

When it comes to monitoring, diagnosing, and optimizing the performance of complex systems today, you can’t really go wrong with tracing tools. And while OpenTelemetry has become the go-to choice for instrumenting apps and collecting traces, there are several other options in the backend that can effectively store, manage, and analyze traces sent by OpenTelemetry. Two of these open-source tools are Jaeger and Grafana Tempo. In this article, we’ll compare and contrast the two.
