It’s been a great couple of months at Stackery. Since coming on as CEO earlier this year, I’ve been impressed with how much our team gets done and their contributions to making the serverless development experience easier and more reliable. I want to take a moment to recognize two of our amazing Stackerinos who were recognized by AWS recently with the AWS Serverless Hero distinction.
If your work in IT, especially in the software field, then you’re almost certainly aware of logs. An application that doesn’t generate any type of logging would be unheard of, to say the least. What about “log analytics?” Do you know this term?
Managing a cloud system properly entails numerous tasks (performance monitoring, response times, latency, uptime management, security, compliance, and disaster recovery). Together, these tasks form a comprehensive holistic strategy that embraces and accounts for all potential scenarios. Especially in today’s intensive business landscape, running cloud operations (NOC) 24/7 has become mandatory together with maintaining a high availability of network services.
AWS re:Invent is an annual gathering of tens of thousands of AWS staff, partners, and users for a full week of keynote sessions, feature announcements, customer case studies, hands-on workshops, and more.

By using the existing payment terms they have with Microsoft, Azure customers can click through a simple workflow to purchase an ISV solution without needing to negotiate new terms or speak directly with an Azure or ISV representative.
Before diving into Git, it’s important to understand the concept of version control at a high level. While not all software developers utilize version control, nor is software development the only industry that does, it is becoming more mainstream every year. And you can bet you will be confronted with version control as a developer if you ever collaborate with others on a workplace team or on open source projects.
We’re on a mission to make responding to incidents a bit less chaotic. One of the best features we offer (we’re definitely not biased, no way) is a simple way to define how a severity gets determined when you open an incident. We call it the severity matrix, and today it has a new look. Previously, we had a preset list of conditions and impact that allowed you to pick a severity that matched them.
