Today’s enterprises are embracing digital transformation and modernizing their infrastructure to deliver products faster and stay ahead of the competition. Here at LogicMonitor, we usually see the result of this modernization as a distributed and hybrid IT infrastructure that allows enterprises to optimize factors like cost and security while still realizing the benefits of being able to scale and deploy faster.
IT Ops teams are under nonstop pressure to work faster and deliver better results—at less cost. This isn’t easy, as IT organizations must support infrastructure in multiple clouds, on-premises, the connections in between, and SaaS applications to enable business advantages and keep up with stakeholder expectations.
Out-of-the-box integrations are great, and they help organizations see an immediate return on investment when the technologies they have invested in work together seamlessly. However, a little customization to these integrations can dramatically increase productivity and reduce mean time to resolution.

Released in 2009, MariaDB is a popular open-source fork of the MySQL relational database management system. MariaDB is intended as a drop-in replacement for MySQL, so data and table definitions, protocols, structures, and connectors require little to no modification in order to migrate. MariaDB also contains several enhancements, including faster indexes and cache, increased connection thread pools, and support for more storage engines.
Amazon FSx is a fast, highly available cloud file system service. Compared to traditional file systems, AWS FSx offers improved performance along with simplified management and security. The use of this service removes the headaches of provisioning hardware and maintaining backups, and combines the familiarity of your preferred filesystems with the reliability of AWS.
As discussed in a previous blog, here at LogicMonitor, we are in the process of rolling out a new user interface (UI) which is designed to streamline workflows, reduce clicks, and include powerful new features. So what’s new in the alerts page?
LogicMonitor dashboards are powerful tools for viewing, troubleshooting, and drawing insights from your monitoring data in a variety of ways. Using LogicMonitor, you’ll likely interface with dashboards more than most other functionalities, so it’s important to optimize your workflow as much as possible.
