Enhancing DevOps with SQL Sentry: A Guide to Shift Left Strategies

Data drives decisions: no one argues this. But developers and DevOps professionals primarily care that their data is being stored… somewhere. At that point, many of them walk away without a care about what happens afterward. They leave that to the DBAs, cloud admins, and anyone else except themselves. But that idea doesn’t scale. Even though the data is a part of your continuous delivery/continuous integration (CI/CD) operations, the care and feeding of those datasets falls to others. Maybe it’s time to look at that data and make some recommendations.

Universal Microsegmentation for VMs and Containers

In the rapidly evolving landscape of IT infrastructure, enterprises are increasingly moving away from traditional virtualization platforms due to rising licensing costs and the limitations these older systems impose on modern cloud-native application needs. The shift towards Kubernetes, which can manage diverse workloads such as containers, virtual machines (VMs), and bare metal environments, accelerates the migration from traditional virtualization platforms.

Understanding and Configuring APN Settings for IoT Devices
