Are you thinking of using Jaeger as a distributed tracing tool? What if there is a better alternative that does both distributed traces and metrics monitoring so that your engineering team does not have to use multiple tools.

Celery worker is a simple, flexible, and reliable distributed system to process vast amounts of messages while providing operations with the tools required to maintain such a system. In this tutorial, we will learn how to implement Celery with Flask and Redis. Before we deep dive into the tutorial, let’s have a brief overview of Celery workers.

GraphQL is a query language and server-side runtime for APIs developed by Facebook in 2012. In this guide, we will implement an Angular Apollo GraphQL client with the help of a sample To-Do app. Before we demonstrate how to implement the Angular GraphQL client, let’s have a brief overview of the Angular framework and GraphQL.

Ruby on Rails is a popular MVC framework for creating web applications. It is necessary to monitor your Ruby applications for performance issues. In today’s cloud-native and microservices-based architecture, it is difficult for engineering teams to troubleshoot performance issues. Tracing your application can give the much needed context required to troubleshoot performance issues.

OpenTelemetry can be used to instrument your Elixir applications to generate telemetry data. The telemetry data can then be visualized using an observability tool to monitor your Elixir application performance. In this tutorial, we will use OpenTelemetry Elixir libraries to instrument an Elixir application and then visualize it using SigNoz. Somewhere during the lifetime of an application, it's inevitable that it will have some performance issues.

This is our 12th monthly product newsletter, and every month our team has shipped code to make SigNoz better for our users. Our latest release is special! It is not only packed with much-awaited user-requested features, but it is also the first time our team met in person to ship a release together. Yes, after 12 months of seeing each other on Zoom, we finally got a chance to see each other in person during our week-long workation.

Our dashboards enable engineering teams to take quick decisions. So, a good design is critical. We have been busy fine-tuning our dashboards to make them more user-friendly. Welcome to SigNal 11 - our monthly product updates where we update you on what we’ve been up to. Last month, we crossed 6,000+ GitHub stars, 700+ slack community members, jazzed up our graphs, and much more. Let’s see what humans at SigNoz have been up to in the month of March 2022.

If you're looking for an open-source alternative to AppDynamics, then you're at the right place. SigNoz is a perfect open-source alternative to AppDynamics. SigNoz provides a unified UI for both metrics and traces with advanced tagging and filtering capabilities. In today's digital economy, more and more companies are shifting to cloud-native and microservice architecture to support global scale and distributed teams.
