In 21st-century business, computing is what makes daily operations, competitive advantage, and strategic growth possible. The foundation that enables this is a hybrid cloud infrastructure that supports business requirements, delivers a suitable user experience, and stays on budget. Mastering the ABCs of infrastructure performance management (IPM) will put you on the road to long-term success.
Networks today span the world and provide many connections between geographically disparate data centers, and public and private clouds. This creates a variety of network management problems. If your network is not working properly, it can be very difficult or even impossible to get the most productive or correct operation of your applications. A sophisticated network requires constant monitoring using the right tools and creating a network performance monitoring strategy.
Migrating to a cloud model would reduce costs and let me focus on consumption pricing; reduce complexity by moving backend software and hardware support to the provider; and increase agility by letting my developers use all those nifty new tools that were emerging daily from cloud providers. The data center was heading the way of the dinosaurs! All was good. Everyone was happy. Well, in theory anyway. Until reality kicked in.
When you send an email or load a website, you probably never think about how the data gets from your computer to the server that needs to process it. But something does have to decide how the data will move across the vast expanse of the Internet – and, in particular, which of the virtually infinite number of potential routes your data will take as it moves from your device to a server and back again.
This post covers how to get started with Home Assistant and Grafana, including setting up InfluxDB and Grafana with Docker, configuring InfluxDB to receive data from Home Assistant, and creating a Grafana dashboard to visualize your data. It provides a comprehensive guide for real-time monitoring and analysis of Home Assistant data. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to integrate Grafana with Home Assistant using InfluxDB.
Selecting a build system is an essential decision when creating a project. Changing is always painful, especially in a mature repository. Therefore the choice should be made carefully. With this article, I will try to describe a few advantages of what Bazel can provide in the context of an embedded repository and show how to set up a build environment with a cross compiler from scratch.
