Using Logz.io Features to Collaborate While You Work from Home
In this challenging global environment, we realize many of our customers will work from home for the next several weeks. Thankfully, Logz.io is designed to support distributed teams and work environments, and we wanted to highlight some of the ways you can use the platform both for remote monitoring and to collaborate better with your teams over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We've teamed up with Apajove to capture their expertise in SCOM
We’re teaming up with SCOM Experts, Apajove, to bring you a ‘tuning pack’ for our fantastic, but also FREE EasyTune download, allowing you to tune an entire management pack in a matter of minutes. The Apajove tuning pack is live on our community store now and incorporates the tips and trick of the trade, which they use in their own SCOM deployments everyday; many of which have taken root in the work of the notorious Kevin Holman.
HAProxyConf 2019 - From 1.5 into the Future by Christian Platzer
At Willhaben, we run Austria’s largest classified advertising marketplace. We started using HAProxy due to our need to move to an all-HTTPS environment. Since then, we’ve leveraged HAProxy for geo-redundancy, HTTP/2, integration with Kubernetes, and blocking suspicious activity. In this talk, I will explain how we gradually shifted from basic HAProxy functionality to our current deployment, and will also describe where we encountered trouble in our production environment and how we overcame it. We are currently serving 5-6 gigabits per second of peak traffic via HAProxy, with about 20k requests per second.
HAProxyConf 2019 - Fully-Automated Deployment of Anycasted Load Balancers with HAProxy and Python
Keeping your service configuration aligned over hundreds of hosts is never a simple task. This talk will illustrate how the University of Paderborn automated the integration of HAProxy into our infrastructure. As our current generation of load balancer appliances approached the end of life and we thought about improving how we managed our services, our goal was clear: we needed a scalable, consistent, active-active setup of load balancers that could be easily automated with open-source tools. We achieve scalability with Anycast but needed to make sure the configurations could keep up with application changes.
Maintaining consistency in codebases with Go Vet
Maintaining success in a large open source project is one of the key objectives of Mattermost. We have hundreds of contributors and we want to create a project that could serve as a model in the Go community. Having said that, following idiomatic Go principles is the thing that we care most about while maintaining our code consistency. For this specific task, we utilized go vet and with this blog post, I would like to explain how we pushed the limits of this tool by extending it.
How to Efficiently Detect Domain Generation Algorithms (DGA) in Kubernetes with Calico Enterprise
2020 is predicted to be an exciting year with more organizations adopting Kubernetes than ever before. As critical workloads with sensitive data migrate to the cloud, we can expect to encounter various Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) targeting that environment.
Serverless CI/CD: How we added a staging step
Unit tests and integration tests are vitally important, but sometimes even those aren’t sufficient to ensure that critical services in your application will function smoothly in production. In those cases, adding a staging step to our CI/CD process allows us to test a feature with real data in a less supervised environment. For example, here at Lumigo we decided to use it for our Node.js tracer.
How We Use PagerDuty for Emergency Response
PagerDuty is known as the platform for driving real-time work, and with the current global spread of COVID-19, many of our customers have been asking how we leverage PagerDuty internally to intelligently coordinate a response to emergency situations (such as this) as they arise. PagerDuty customers primarily leverage our platform for coordinating an incident response process when technical issues happen, such as a bad deployment, network degradation or failed hardware.
How to get started with Elasticsearch Service on AWS GovCloud
We’re happy to announce the beta availability of our new government region, AWS GovCloud (US East), for the Elasticsearch Service on Elastic Cloud. This new region is our first step in simplifying operations for Elastic users who handle government data as we work toward gaining a Moderate authorization for the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP).
