How to Use Quarkus Live Coding in Docker

Here at LogicMonitor, we like to experiment and try new things. In fact, one of our core tenets is “better every day”. This means that we’re always hungry to learn new things, experiment, innovate, and take chances. One thing we’ve been experimenting with lately (and loving!) is the Quarkus framework.

It’s a fact of life: as the Kubernetes API evolves, it’s periodically reorganized or upgraded. This means some Kubernetes resources can be deprecated and later removed. We deserve to keep track of those deprecations and removals easily. For that, we have just released the new deprecated-api-versions policy for Kubewarden, our efficient Kubernetes policy engine that runs policies compiled to Wasm.

Sumo Logic's investment in OTel

When teams collect data without full observability of what others on the team can see, it becomes clear that no one’s picture is truly accurate. In this picture, all of the people are wearing blindfolds and feeling around to see what is in front of them.

Monitoring Windows 365 Cloud PCs

A new era is here, where cloud computing is taking a growing share of the digital workspace market.
