In this technical paper, we'll compare the performance and features of InfluxDB 1.4.2 vs. Elasticsearch 5.6.3 for common time series workloads, specifically looking at the rates of data ingestion, on-disk data compression, and query performance. This data should prove valuable to developers and architects evaluating the suitability of these technologies for their use case.

The world is embracing high speed networks slow and steady.

Organizations today are increasingly the targets of sophisticated threats developed by a shadowy and well-financed cybercrime industry that has demonstrated it can often outsmart even the most robust security defenses. Worse yet, cybercriminals are aided by the fact that security teams often lack the human and financial resources necessary to keep pace with evolving threats, so they often cannot defend against every attack coming their way.

IT teams know that strong escalation policies are like the net under an acrobat. They ensure that if an alert is not heard or cannot be handled by the recipient, the alert won't fall out of view and suffer a quick demise.

Operational intelligence, derived from the collection and analysis of machine-generated data, has often been used purely for the monitoring and management of IT infrastructure, applications and security. However, such data can also provide invaluable insight across the rest of the business.

This white paper describes the technologies and processes used by Sumo Logic to secure customer data, and provides background on the company's deeply ingrained security culture.

An inside look at shifting container usage trends.

This white paper will provide best practices for alert tuning to ensure the following outcomes: monitoring is in place to catch critical conditions, the right people are alerted, the amount of noise is reduced, and people are not needlessly woken up.
