SQL and NoSQL are two database technologies widely adopted by many organizations for different use cases. Both technologies share the common goal of efficiently processing and managing data. Still, there are some significant differences. This article compares SQL and NoSQL, exploring their key differences in terms of language, structure, scalability, properties and support. We’ll also discuss examples, pros and cons and the most suitable application areas for each database type.

While more observability vendors are providing tracing ingestion and visualization as part of their core service, only Coralogix, the leading in-stream observability platform, supports a set of data optimization features that drive down cost, maximize insights and create a scalable tracing strategy unlike others.

Monitoring applications that you’ve deployed to production is non-negotiable if you want to be confident in your code quality. One of the best ways to monitor application behavior is by emitting, saving, and indexing log data. Logs can be sent to a variety of applications for indexing, and you can then refer to them when problems arise.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern tech, system reliability has become a critical factor for businesses to succeed. To ensure the stability and performance of complex distributed systems, companies are relying on observability—a concept that isn’t synonymous, but instead goes beyond traditional monitoring approaches.
