We are proud to announce our recent decision to become Premier Members of the Academy Software Foundation (ASWF). This association aims to bring together members across the media and entertainment industry to improve collaborations involving open-source software.
The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) is a powerful tool that allows you to manage your AWS resources from the command line. Whether you are a developer, system administrator, or DevOps engineer, the AWS CLI can help you automate and streamline your workflows, increase productivity, and improve the security of your AWS infrastructure. In this article, we’ll cover the basics of installing and configuring the AWS CLI on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Modern business of any direction requires the introduction of IT technologies. Large companies can afford to hire a team of specialists who support customers and company employees in information technology. At the same time, specialists manage to implement new solutions in their platforms simultaneously. Small and medium businesses need help to afford such a solution.
As the movement to the cloud has grown, so has the use of containers as an effective way to package, distribute, and deploy applications. As surveys show, Kubernetes is the most widely used orchestration engine for managing cloud-native containers. Kubernetes automates deployment, auto-scaling, resource optimization, backup and recovery, and enables containers to run across different environments, eliminating the need to develop separate versions for each operating environment.
When security incidents happen, it’s crucial for software providers and users alike to take swift and effective action. In response to our recent security incident, we witnessed firsthand how an open and collaborative effort between our customers, technology partners, and engineering teams helped to contain the threat and mitigate risk of unauthorized access to customer systems.
With a standard model for monitoring data across the organization, different teams can use a common infrastructure and extract maximum value from it. Monitoring (also sometimes referred to as observability) involves collecting and analyzing data from a source over time to track its health and/or performance. Because change occurs over time, virtually all monitoring data is time series data, meaning it has a timestamp.
Historically, software development and SRE have worked in silos with different cultural perspectives and priorities. The goal of DevOps is to establish common and complementary practices across software development and operations. Sadly, in some organizations true collaboration is rare and we still have a way to go to build effective DevOps partnerships.
We completely reworked our custom-made, time series database (dbengine), resulting in stunning improvements to performance, scalability, and stability, while at the same time significantly reducing the agent memory requirements. On production-grade hardware (e.g. 48 threads, 32GB ram) Netdata Agent Parents can easily collect 2 million points/second while servicing data queries for 10 million points / second, and running ML training and Health querying 1 million points / second each!
IT tools are similar to romantic relationships. Over time, you tend to fall into the same old dull routines, like Rupert Holme’s song Escape (The Piña Colada Song). That routine — collect dataset, route, ingest ($$) and then search, collect dataset, route, ingest, then search, … this approach is not only breaking your heart but your budget too.
