What is Container Orchestration

Jun 18, 2025 By Konner Bemis In Cycle
In the simplest of terms, container orchestration is the automated process of deploying, managing, scaling and networking containers. Containers are lightweight, portable self contained units that include an application or the processes needed to run applications. Docker is a great example of a project that helps to containerize or package applications, and was a large reason why containers gained such popularity around 2013. Before Docker there were Linux Containers (LXC).

An open source tool to speed up iOS app launch

Jun 18, 2025 By Noah Martin In Sentry
What do the Snapchat, Airbnb, and Spotify iOS apps have in common? They all use order files to speed up their iOS app launch times. Order files re-order your binary to improve how symbols are loaded into memory. No code changes are necessary, but generating an optimized order file can be cumbersome, so it’s mostly done by larger teams or teams willing to pay for a service like Emerge Tools’ Launch Booster. It just so happens that Emerge Tools is now part of Sentry.

Jun 18, 2025 By Faiz Shaikh In Last9

If you’re investigating an outage, tracking performance issues, or trying to correlate events across services, Kibana’s log exploration tools can speed up the process, assuming they’re configured and used well.

Jun 18, 2025 By Puppet In Puppet
Many IT teams underestimate the true cost of managing infrastructure themselves. At first glance, DIY tools may seem like a cost-effective and flexible solution — but the workflows you build and manage with in-house tooling reveal a host of hidden expenses, inefficiencies, and risks as your IT scales. While it’s not a new problem, it’s one that’s revealing itself more and more clearly as time goes on.

Mastering Global Telemetry: How Cribl Puts You in Control

Jun 18, 2025 By Alexandra Gates In Cribl
Let’s face it: managing global data infrastructure isn’t just hard, it’s “I-just-deployed-the-wrong-config-to-prod-again” hard. If you’re a Cribl Admin or Operator working across clouds, continents, and compliance regimes, your to-do list probably reads like a series of increasingly desperate Post-it notes. Sources. Destinations. Pipelines. TLS settings. Proxies. Dev, staging, prod. Repeat. Forever. But what if we told you there’s a better way?
