PC applications that interact with MCUs are used by developers for a number of reasons, such as data visualization, monitoring during testing campaigns, and command and control via a GUI. In this article, we’ll explore mapping an MCU’s peripherals to your personal computer to simplify development of PC applications built for embedded systems. Like Interrupt?

Developing and deploying database changes can be a complex task, made more challenging by the fact that development teams need to move fast, while also protecting an organization’s crown jewels: its data. Speed of delivery and protecting data can often feel incompatible, but there are industry-proven database DevOps practices that bring them together in harmony.

An easy way to communicate with Elasticsearch and Elastic Cloud using Arduino IoT devices At Elastic®, we are constantly looking for new ways to simplify search experience, and we started to look at the IoT world. The collection of data coming from IoT can be quite challenging, especially when we have thousands of devices. Elasticsearch® can be very useful to collect, explore, visualize, and discover data — for all the data coming from multiple devices.

Just after midnight on October 1, 2023, the remote island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic began passing internet traffic over its long-awaited, first-ever submarine cable connection. In this blog post, we cover how Kentik’s measurements captured this historic activation, as well as the epic story of the advocacy work it took to make this development possible.

Are you looking for an OpenTelemetry alternative? Then you've come to the right place. There are no good alternatives to OpenTelemetry if your use case involves generating different types of telemetry signals like logs, metrics, and traces and their collection. In certain use cases, like monitoring only metrics or time-series data, you can use a tool like Prometheus. If you’re sure you want an OpenTelemetry alternative, then let me point you to these three here.

Aiven for Apache Kafka® improves stability and lowers latency.

In the previous article I covered how to set up auto-instrumented tracing for a Node.js app using OpenTelemetry (OTEL). We then sent the spans directly to the open source tracing tool Jaeger. I recommend you give that a read first before walking through this guide because we're going to re-use the instrumentation we set up last time. Today we're going to take things a step further by introducing the OpenTelemetry Collector.

As an engineer, engineering supervisor, or CTO, you are responsible for making architectural decisions that help your team create innovative products and optimize technology costs. The type of architecture you select affects how much control you have over data, infrastructure, and customization options. The Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model is one of the major architectures you can use to deliver services to customers — anytime and anywhere.

Learn how collaboration fueled by business risk observability can help your teams protect what matters most. According to IDC, 750 million cloud native applications will be created globally by 2025, underscoring the seismic shift to cloud native application environments to harness the scalability and agility of the cloud.

The field of endpoint management has undergone a remarkable transformation over the years, driven by the rapid evolution of technology and changing work dynamics. IT professionals have always played a pivotal role in ensuring the security and functionality of their organization's network. However, as the number of endpoints has proliferated, so too has the complexity of their responsibilities.
