Early Ransomware Detection and Response

The inability to access critical digital assets can be catastrophic to your operations. Ransomware is therefore one the scariest, but also most common online assaults. Join this webinar and learn how Flowmon, a leading network detection and response tool, helps to cover visibility gaps, detect ransomware and respond even prior to locking down digital assets. We will go through Flowmon's features via live demo and show you how to trace attackers’ footprints across the system.

Data Security and Privacy Techniques for Everyone

Everyone on the internet should follow good data security and privacy practices. And when I say everyone, I mean everyone. IT pros aren’t the only people who need to protect their data. If you’re online in any capacity, there are some basic techniques you should use. I’m not talking about things like encryption and data masking; if I tried to tell my mother about those, she would stare blankly at me.

Monitoring Hybrid IT Environments With AppOptics

Over the past decade, organizations have been moving to a hybrid cloud model. A hybrid cloud is a form of cloud computing where applications are deployed on a combination of public clouds and private infrastructure. With a hybrid cloud, organizations can choose the most optimal deployment strategy for their applications while maintaining control over certain aspects, such as running user-facing services from a public cloud while storing sensitive data on-premise.

Accelerate Observability with Catchpoint and Wavefront

Web applications have evolved from static pages with minimal user interaction to a dynamic intuitive interface that delivers advanced functionality. the complex architecture of these applications makes it necessary to monitor and maintain application health, performance, and end-user experience. Catchpoint’s monitoring platform provides all the tools you need to track application performance.

Telecommunications observability with the Elastic Stack: Monitoring voice traffic data

Applying an observability strategy to core telecommunication data processing enables operators to answer questions that were not possible to answer before. As this approach has gained prominence, the Elastic Stack has become increasingly popular in the telecommunications space, with companies like Deutsche Telekom — their data transformation effort championed by Hans-Konrad Roth — adopting Elastic as their solution of choice for international traffic monitoring.

Combining AIOps Methods with New Approaches to Distributed Tracing

Humans are naturally visual creatures. Several of us are visual learners, meaning, we learn by seeing things in action. Tracing is seeing things in action. Troubleshooting where and why something is slow or flat out broken, with clear visual indication, is incredibly powerful.

Using API Gateway to Decouple and Scale Serverless Architectures

One of the benefits of Serverless architectures is the possibility of scaling applications without worrying about load balancers and clusters of servers. While services like AWS Lambda hold their promises on this area, there are usually misconceptions about how they work. It is common for developers to assume that Lambda functions can scale infinitely, at any speed, in any circumstances. Reality is quite different from that.

A Million Dollar Knob: S3 Object Lifecycle Optimization

At Sumo Logic, we manage petabytes of unstructured log data as part of our core log search and analytics offering. Multiple terabytes of data are indexed every day and stored persistently in AWS S3. When a query is executed against this data via UI, API, scheduled search or pre-installed apps, the indexed files are retrieved from S3 and cached in a custom read-through cache for these AWS S3 objects. For the most part, the caching scheme for S3 objects works reasonably well.
