We set out with a plan this year to nurture and grow our developer ecosystem. In 2020, we launched our Template Library to empower joint users of LogDNA and our partners to have an out-of-the-box logging experience from every layer of their stack. As the use of these templates has grown, users have told us that they save them time from manually creating Views, Boards, and Screens, and helps them gain insight from their logs much quicker.

In today’s complex IT infrastructures, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers play an indispensable role in automating IP allocation and configuration. A DHCP server’s capacity to allocate IPs to the requesting clients in real-time is one of the factors that ensures constant uptime of dynamic networks. However, even though a network’s availability depends on them, DHCP servers are often not closely monitored by IT teams.
