When I wrote this code, I didn’t know much about open-source, so when it came down to licensing, I just grabbed the first reasonable suggestion thrown my way.

If you can even manage to convince your employees to respond to that well-crafted questionnaire, how do you separate the signal from the noise and operationalize this information for ITOps?
Logz.io was born out of a frustration with the realities of managing an open source monitoring and troubleshooting stack across distributed systems at cloud scale. Today, we introduce another tool to streamline log mamagement: Log Patterns.
BYOD stands for bring your own device, whereby your organization lets employees use personal devices for day-to-day work. Sounds simple, right? Unlike corporate devices where the enterprise has complete freedom to choose users’ device types and platforms, BYOD is a different case altogether.
