To drive agility, innovation, and excellence, businesses must continuously re-examine their processes. However, embracing new technologies and implementing fresh applications can be a complex and expensive operation. It can also distract attention from day-to-day business. That’s why more and more global companies turn to a managed service provider like Infosys, so we can take the strain.

Today’s global commerce landscape requires companies to have essential real-time, critical data about how efficiently their networks are functioning. This is especially true for enterprises engaged in e-commerce where having a clear window into the end user experience enables them to compete in an increasingly crowded marketplace. This holds true for the largest international organizations all the way down to locally based start-ups.

In this post, we will discuss some key considerations and strategies to collect and analyze your AWS Lambda logs.

Global Site Load Balancing (GSLB) is an important part of your application infrastructure, but many people don’t understand its benefits. In this post we’ll explain how GSLB works and how LoadMaster GEO can bring big benefits in availability and performance at a fraction of the cost of alternatives.

By implementing these vulnerability assessment and vulnerability management best practices you will reduce the attack surface of your infrastructure. We’re human, and many things we build aren’t perfect. That’s why we take our cars for a periodic inspection, or why we have organizations certifying that products are safe to use. Software is no different.

Bugs are more likely to enter the equation as applications grow larger and more complicated, resulting in poor user experience. We tend to abandon applications when they don't load as quickly as we expect. Developers need code-level performance insights to deliver the optimal user experience. They also need to know which users are affected by issues so that they can reproduce the issue and work on a solution more quickly.

Writing code might be complex but it is easier to control with the right support tool. How do you know a new build of your software has shipped successfully? How do you know a single feature added to your website is working as you want it to? To ease the pain of tracking down all the issues, version control systems are useful tools that help you keep monitoring the changes that you make to your code.
