One of the things I really love about working for Cribl is the ability to help our customers optimize their data. Microsoft Windows Event Logs are something I have always looked to as a proverbial Rosetta Stone to help translate semi-structured, classic-style events into something more efficient and less resource-intensive to search.

Webinar: The Top 5 Use Cases for Internal Developer Portals
Internal developer portals (IDPs) have received a lot of attention lately. Internal Developer Portals serve as the engineering system of record—providing developers with the context and tools they need to ensure services and resources they own align with best practices for deployment readiness, operational maturity, security compliance, and more. But they do more than just act as a system of record for your whole stack. They also help drive alignment, improve MTTR, and can even reduce cloud spend.
Kafka Monitoring Using Prometheus
In this article, we are going to discuss how to set up Kafka monitoring using Prometheus. Kafka is one of the most widely used streaming platforms, and Prometheus is a popular way to monitor Kafka.
