Time waits for no one, and the years just seem to fly by. For us at ManageEngine, this year was especially memorable as we turned 20. And, as the best birthday gift ever, you helped us hit the most coveted milestone that many can only dream of achieving. Zoho Corporation, the parent company of ManageEngine, hit $1 billion in revenue earlier this year—and we have only YOU to be thankful for. But, that’s not all.

Accessorizing can completely turn around your look. Same way, the apps we make may also feel patchy sometimes, but then, if we bring in third-party resources - such as third-party API integrations, it can drastically enhance our application’s performance. These additional API integrations expand the functionality of your application tremendously, for example, you might add a real-time alerting feature to an analytics tool you built!

One of our favorite things at Grafana Labs is seeing Grafana dashboards in action. Over the past year, members of the Grafana community — from inside and outside of the company — shared the unique ways they have used dashboards to monitor a wide range of projects including an elderly parent’s home, a Tesla, and a python named Pretzel. Let’s take a look back at some of the eye-catching and informative results.

With every new update and feature we introduced to our open source LGTM stack this year, we have also enhanced Grafana Cloud, our hosted offering that is powered by Grafana Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Grafana Tempo for traces, and Grafana Mimir for metrics. With Grafana Cloud, “we have curated the open source experience into an easy-to-use, opinionated, and integrated platform,” Grafana Labs VP of Technology Tom Wilkie said in the ObservabilityCON 2022 keynote.

A clean home is a clean mind. That means it’s time to audit your Uptime.com accounts and start the new year fresh. We know what you’re thinking, cleaning is tedious and boring, and you’d rather eat pie and take a nap. Yes. We understand. But we also know that cleaning up your accounts can save you from security leaks, increase your productivity, and save you the inevitable hassle of decluttering your accounts in the future. But like we said, we understand the reluctance to do it.

Another day starting up your laptop or workstation, logging into programs, and waiting for that first call to come in. As an IT help desk analyst, you love when you can solve people’s problems, but sometimes the number of calls feels overwhelming. Although each analyst tier responds to different customer or employee concerns, you all share the same basic job functions like answering calls, asking questions, and research answers.

A status page is a great way to provide a real-time overview of your services and their uptime. It can also include any planned maintenance or other important updates to your customers. Better yet, a status page can have a massive impact on your internal processes, save you significant time and money, highlight your credibility, and much more.

It's common for "make sure the website's up" to be one of the first tasks we receive that we can classify as "website monitoring." We can do it for a friend's or relative's business, our website or blog, or employment. Additionally, checking the availability of a website is frequently the first monitoring task that calls for the use of a tool rather than a command. According to IT professionals, most "is it running?" questions can simply be checked. PING and its several variations are used for this.

Monitoring tools aid DevOps teams in finding and resolving performance issues more quickly. With the popularity of Kubernetes and Docker continuing to grow, it's critical to establish proper container monitoring and log management practices early on. This is no simple task. Docker container monitoring is quite difficult. Creating a strategy and a suitable monitoring system is not at all easy.

If you’re just getting familiar with full-stack observability and Coralogix and you want to send us your metrics and traces using the new OpenTelemetry Community Demo Application, this blog is here to help you get started. In this simple, step-by-step guide, you will learn how to get telemetry data produced by the OpenTelemetry Demo Webstore into your Coralogix dashboard using Docker on your local machine.

According to Gartner, the ITOM market is divided into “three mini-suite categories — delivery automation, experience management, and performance analysis.” With business growth becoming reliant on the success of IT operations, managing IT operations to ensure optimal performance, uninterrupted service delivery, and an exceptional user experience is critical for organizations.

With native SQL support coming to InfluxDB, we can broaden the scope of developer tools used to analyze and visualize our time series data. One of these tools is Apache Superset. So let’s break down the basics of what Superset is, look at its features and benefits, and run a quick demo of Superset in action.

A business without an application performance monitoring tool runs the risk of losing customers fast. At the core of ensuring the best possible application for their customers is the use of performance tools. The metrics that monitoring tools provide will give an insight into how the web application will behave. With the use of APM tools, DevOps teams know when an issue arises and how to fix it. They also find out what risks are there so they can tackle them before it wreaks havoc in their systems.

Back in the day, before I was a father, before I was a husband, back when I was more of an adrenaline ‘junkie’, one of my ongoing adventures was skydiving. I wouldn’t necessarily call it a hobby as I never followed through with a certification, but I took my fair share of jumps. When I first started I would go with either a ‘static line’, where a cord hanging from the plane would pull my chute, or go on what is called ‘tandem’.

At Grafana Labs, we’re all about open source, and this year we took it to a whole new level. Many of you are familiar with the acronym “LGTM,” which is shorthand for “Looks good to me” and commonly used in code reviews. At Grafana Labs, LGTM has also been a guiding rubric in developing our observability stack.

Even though 2022 hasn’t even ended, Gartner has already charted its top technology trends for 2023. In this blog, we’ll look at how Applied Observability for networks — which Gartner lists as one of the top three trending technology topics in the “optimization” category — helps the organization translate network performance into business performance.

Every Citrix engineer knows it is quite a burden to install, configure and update monitoring agent software on Citrix VDA machines as this requires you to create and deploy new master images every time you need to deploy a new agent version. While it requires some manual actions, the SCOM platform does natively support monitoring through agentless managed devices which you can onboard with the SCOM discovery wizard.

OpenTelemetry (OTel), the emerging industry standard for application observability and distributed tracing across cloud-native and distributed architectures, is becoming an essential tool for Go developers. However, implementing OTel with Go to send data to observability platforms is hardly a straightforward process. At Helios, we’re on a mission to help as many teams as possible adopt distributed tracing.

Real User Monitoring (RUM) is passive website monitoring that has already been used widely for two decades. Large enterprises adopted it first because they had the capital to deploy their own system. But with RUM solutions, like Uptime.com provides, it is affordable for even small businesses. While this is not a new technology, it is new to those businesses that haven’t used it before.

When the world went remote in March 2020, cloud technologies made work possible. Rapid digital transformation changed everyone’s jobs, whether in-office, remote, or hybrid. Today, your business relies on network speed for everything from productivity to customer service. Keeping your company’s services running means you need to make sure you have low-latency connectivity across data centers, users, and cloud.

There are more than a million reasons (and Grafana instances!) that have made 2022 a standout year at Grafana Labs. But here are the top 10 releases, products, company milestones, and major announcements that were off the charts.

One tool for all your Python performance tracking needs We're building this neat service in Python to ingest data in Elasticsearch from various sources (MySQL, Network Drive, AWS, etc.) for Enterprise Search. Sucking data from a third-party service to Elasticsearch is usually an I/O-bound activity. Your code sits on opened sockets and passes data from one end to the other. That's a great use case for an asynchronous application in Python, but it needs to be carefully crafted.

In the world of observability, there are several distinct problems to solve. Fast queries, intuitive visualizations, scalable storage, and more. The technical problems receive the most attention; however, there is another, more subtle problem. How do observability platforms facilitate collaboration on the scale needed by organizations?

How you communicate helps build your 9s. In the world of Site Reliability Engineering, this is crucial. How do you do it?

The Java Management Extensions (JMX) framework is a Java technology that includes tools for managing and monitoring applications, system objects, and service-oriented networks. The JMX framework is designed to simplify the management of local and remote Java applications. The JMX framework introduces the concept of MBeans for real-time management of applications, whereby resources are represented by objects called MBeans (Managed Beans).

The rise of modern applications has kicked basic monitoring tools to the curb. With observability, teams can proactively know, in real-time, what’s happening across the entire stack. Observability allows us to take a holistic view of our IT systems and learn about the current state based on the environment and the data it generates. But how do you properly implement observability? Here are 6 guiding principles to make sure your IT and DevOps teams are set up for success.

Businesses around the world are increasingly turning to container technology to streamline the process of deploying and managing complex, cloud native applications. Containers bundle all necessary dependencies into a single package, offering portability, speed, security, scalability, and ease of management, making them the preferred choice over traditional virtual machines (VMs).

As we reach the end of the year, many of us are looking back to see how our resolutions for the year 2022 went. Well we don’t know about you, but at Applications Manager, we kept to our resolution to work to deliver the best possible version of our tool. Here’s a look back at 2022 and every milestone we crossed this year.

OpsRamp has enhanced its hybrid observability capabilities by adding an integrated log management solution to unify log, event and alert data within customers’ monitoring and event management command center. Presenting this log data as part of a unified view of IT performance data and integrating it with remediation capabilities will allow enterprises and service providers to expedite the process of identifying and resolving potential issues before they impact their business operations.

In Parts 1 and 2, we looked at how you can build and maintain effective test suites. These steps are a key part of ensuring that application workflows function as expected. But how you run your tests is another important point to consider, so in this post, we’ll walk through best practices for executing your tests across every stage of development. Along the way, we’ll also look at how Datadog supports these practices for the applications that you are already monitoring.

In November 2022, our team here at Helios attended and sponsored KubeCon North America. Our motivations for being there were related to getting out the word about what Helios is doing to accelerate development velocity through microservices troubleshooting. Here we are at our booth: While there we also caught up with a number of the other folks attending the event. Here are a few of the key takeaways and trends we noticed.

The holidays are here. It’s the happiest time of year but also the most dangerous time for your website. This season usually means sales and events, which bring in a surge of website traffic and strains to your systems. If you are not prepared for these changes, your website could pay the price and ultimately damage your business’s reputation and revenue. We want to avoid these catastrophes.

Outlier Detection is now available as part of the Grafana Machine Learning toolkit in Grafana Cloud for Pro and Advanced users. With this feature, you can monitor a group of similar things, such as load-balanced pods in Kubernetes, and get alerted when some of them start behaving differently than their peers. There’s supposed to be a video here, but for some reason there isn’t. Either we entered the id wrong (oops!), or Vimeo is down.

As a continuation of our series for monitoring web servers with NGINX and APACHE, let us find out how to effectively and easily monitor and troubleshoot NGINXPlus using Netdata!

Moving towards a Kubernetes platform might seem a simple move. You’ll ask your smartest engineers to get started. They will love a move towards cloud and container technology. However, if you want to realize maximum benefit as you start using a platform like Kubernetes, there is more to it.

If you’ve been in the software business for some time, you’ve probably noticed that creating software isn’t only about adding features. There are usually many different tasks involved. You have to test your system, fix bugs, and ensure it keeps working over its lifetime.

On November 16, 2022, I sat down with analyst KellyAnn Fitzpatrick from RedMonk to discuss my favorite topic: observability. This time, we looked at observability in a context of what to do and what to avoid doing as you’re starting and going on an observability journey. Click the image below (or here) for a replay of the session. A machine-generated transcript is available at the end of the post.

At this year’s InfluxDays event, the capabilities of InfluxDB took center stage. It’s not enough to simply deploy a technology platform and hope people will use it. This isn’t a Kevin Costner movie. That’s why it’s helpful to talk about specific use cases, their typical challenges, and how InfluxDB can address those challenges. Fortunately, that’s just what Influxer Charles Mahler did for network monitoring.

Technology is everywhere in today's world; every company has its application or website to run its business. Everyone company wants to make sure that their application runs well in all the cases and handles edge cases, but manually it is not that easy. Application performance monitoring tool helps in automating the monitoring process. These APM tools help monitor the application 24x7 and can send alerts regularly if anything fails or crashes in the application.

A logging framework is a software tool that helps developers output diagnostic information during the execution of a program. This information is used to debug the program or monitor its performance. There are many different logging frameworks available, starting with simple logging libraries to full-fledged logging and observability platforms.

We always say we’ll stick by them, and then once early February rolls around we’ve probably long forgotten the promises we had made in the cold light of the new year. But, if you want to make your business’ Microsoft Teams service quality the best it can be – you need to make some changes (and stick to them).

Data processing involves collecting, organizing, and manipulating data in a systematic manner in order to extract useful information from it. It involves a series of steps that are performed on a set of data to transform it into a more meaningful and functional form for a specific purpose. Starting from collecting the data to the end part of processing it, data undergoes several layers of checks and balances before it is let out as we see it.

The tire sales industry is a fractured collection of hundreds of point of sales systems and thousands of auto shops and retailers. As a result, manufacturers and distributors lack critical visibility into how these products are sold. SaaS startup Torqata aims to fix that.

The gaming industry delivers specialized software at scale to users who expect a flawless interface. Application performance monitoring (APM) will measure critical software performance parameters using telemetry data. By monitoring this data, teams can ensure their game delivers the best user experience and quickly detect when the software needs updates to fix errors or meet key performance indicators (KPIs).

Microsoft Azure Monitor allows customers to get critical details about their Azure cloud environments and services. The API for Azure Monitor can be a great way for teams to pull this information into their own storage systems for further analysis. However, it can be an overwhelming amount of data to process. Sysdig can help with this problem and eliminate time and effort. Here is how we do it …

Netreo enjoyed another great year, and we’re extremely grateful to our customers and partners for their ongoing loyalty and support. We wish all of our customers, business partners, your employees and ours the happiest of holiday seasons. 2022 began with a monumental shift in sales strategy and the addition of experienced leaders in key disciplines.

Not all Internet outages take a website down. Some may impact a smaller subsection of users or only affect one part of a site’s functionality. Moreover, because of their relative “hidden” nature, organizations may not always know about them immediately since fewer users will be making complaints. However, such incidents can still have serious consequences, thus you want to detect them as soon as possible so you can quickly mitigate and resolve issues.

Pandora FMS blog has a very clear purpose: for you to find out everything there is to know about the largest number of rare words related to computing, technology or monitoring, so you can show off among your peers (with whom the hell may you brag about this). Today it’s “Hyperconvergence“! It may sound like something about spacecrafts going into a state close to the speed of light or psychic-type Pokémon attack, but no, it’s something else!

You may get lucky this holiday season with a new 3D printer, either as a gift or something you give yourself as a reward for all your hard work this year. Household 3D printers have made tremendous strides in ease of use and affordability over the last decade.

At some point if you’re working with data, you’ll probably want to be able to visualize it with different types of charts and organize those charts with dashboards. You’ll also need somewhere to store that data so it can be queried efficiently. One of the most popular combinations for storing and visualizing time series data is Grafana and InfluxDB.

I recently chatted with one of our InfluxDB Cloud customers, Rune Labs, to discuss how they’re using this purpose-built time series platform. Every customer has a unique story — I love sharing their stories as well as their Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Flux tips and tricks. Keep reading to learn about Rune Labs’ approach to precision neurology, and learn from Engineering Manager Carolyn Ranti how they are using InfluxDB to collect sensor data.

Log files and system logs have been a treasure trove of information for administrators and developers for decades. But with more moving parts and ever more options on where to run modern cloud applications, keeping an eye on logs and troubleshooting problems have become increasingly difficult.

Dear Santa, I’ve been an extremely good IT Operations Manager this year (which is saying something considering the state of the world at the moment) and I have a few items on my wish list.

Grafana Agent v0.30 is here! The past couple of Grafana Agent releases have been pretty exciting for us. We introduced Agent Flow as a new way to configure, run, and debug telemetry pipelines. We also announced OpenTelemetry Collector components to expand on our Big Tent philosophy and allow users to switch seamlessly between the Prometheus and OTel ecosystems. This latest release continues that momentum by introducing Loki components for building logging pipelines and marking Flow mode as beta!

Computer marketers and analysts never saw a term they didn’t want to change. Not leaving well enough alone with the tried and true "network monitoring," more folks have taken to using the term "infrastructure monitoring." That term is so general as to have little meaning. Afterall, what infrastructure are we talking about? Bridges, roads, servers and NICs? Very confusing.

Sending change alert(s) is a core feature of ChangeTower. Whether new content is published on a page, a keyphrase is added or removed, or even if the site’s meta description was changed, ChangeTower can detect and more importantly, alert you of those changes before anyone else. Before diving into how to set this up with ChangeTower, let’s talk about Google Analytics first.

Large IoT environments are highly complex and comprise multiple layers of disparate devices that must move data between each other, across potentially unreliable connections. Having visibility into each layer of your IoT environment is critical for quickly identifying problems with your deployment that could negatively impact user experience.

Find out how to effectively and easily monitor and troubleshoot Dovecot using Netdata.

These three IAM security misconfiguration scenarios are rather common. Discover how they can be exploited, but also, how easy it is to detect and correct them. Identity and access management (IAM) misconfigurations are one of the most common concerns in cloud security. Over the last few years, we have seen how these security holes put organizations at increased risk of experiencing serious attacks on their Cloud accounts.

Work-life balance is so important to us that 72% of U.S. employees consider it a high priority when choosing a job. It lets you spend time with your family and friends and gives you a much-needed break from work. For those of us in the website monitoring world, it can be hard to find that balance. Bad website monitoring only worsens the issue, leading to more stressed-out, overworked developers who ultimately burn out and even quit.

As companies start their Kubernetes and cloud-native journey, cloud infrastructures and services grow at a rapid pace. This happens all too often as organizations shift left without thorough controls, which can lead to overallocating and overspending on their Kubernetes environments. Organizations running workloads in the cloud can put budgets at risk when they lack information about key facts.

Cribl places high importance on its core values of Customer First, Always; Together; Curious; Irreverent but Serious, and Transparent. We strive to embody these values every day, and a particular customer issue recently enabled us to exemplify them to that customer. Recently, the Cribl Support, Software Engineering, and Product Management teams worked together with our largest Cribl Cloud customer to resolve throughput issues that arose when integrating Cribl.Cloud with Azure Event Hubs (EH).

Given the advanced digital age we are in now, a website's uptime and availability determine the success of businesses of all shapes and sizes. There are numerous challenges that each organization must face and overcome to ensure business continuity. One of the top in this list of challenges is website downtime. Your website must always be up so visitors can access it anytime and anywhere. However, if your website is frequently down, it will be tagged as unreliable, which reflects poorly on you.

Repetitive tasks can be time consuming. In an ideal world, automation would remove all of the grunt work when it comes to solving business problems, freeing us up to execute on more strategic decisions. Luckily, Jira has the capabilities to take a load of tasks off your hands – including tracking your issues, posts, features, and more. This blog will walk you through the options available and offer top tips on how to set this up.

With the release of InfluxDB’s new storage engine for InfluxDB Cloud, InfluxDB Cloud now supports SQL. This is because the updated InfluxDB uses the Apache Arrow DataFusion project as a key building block for its query execution engine. DataFusion’s sophisticated query optimizations support near unlimited cardinality data in InfluxDB Cloud.

The structured nature of Kubernetes enables a repeatable and scalable means of deploying and managing services and applications. This has led to widespread adoption across market verticals for both on-premises and cloud deployment models. The autonomous nature of Kubernetes operation, however, demands comprehensive, fully-converged observability and security. This is uniquely possible today using the Elastic platform.

The community has spoken, six Helm charts is not enough! We agree! In all seriousness though, six charts is simply too many to maintain. And while it might sound counterintuitive, that’s why we are announcing a new Helm chart. By focusing on the “Grafana Labs way" to run Grafana Loki using Helm, we believe this will help us and the community concentrate our Helm efforts into a single chart. This new chart is released under grafana/loki at Helm version 3 or higher.

Having a healthy network is essential for any online business. Downtime can be costly; if you're not monitoring your devices, you could have more downtime than you realize. Routers, in particular, are essential for keeping a network running. Routers are critical equipment for any business that relies on the Internet to communicate with customers or clients. A slow or faulty router can grind business to a halt, which is why keeping an eye on your router's performance is essential.

Continuing in our series of InfluxDays recaps, we turn our attention to Brian Gilmore’s presentation on Industrial IoT. This is an area that uses time series data extensively and has a lot of room to expand the way it uses this data. Here’s a quick breakdown of where things stand today.

We’re pleased to announce that Elastic has been named a Leader in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Insight Engines. This is our second year of inclusion in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for this category, and this year’s evaluation places Elastic as the furthest entry on the "Completeness of Vision" axis.

Observability is a growing practice that provides many benefits to IT and DevOps teams. With greater visibility into their environments, teams can determine the state of the system, predict issues, and mitigate them before end users are impacted. Observability makes data more usable and in turn, businesses reap the benefits of having great insights. Are you on the fence on whether to get started with your own observability practice? Check out these 12 observability benefits and get started today!

If you are a Symfony PHP developer, you will need Symfony monitoring. With the ever-increasing need for web applications to perform at their best, developers require full visibility and observability. This way, they have full control of the performance and its maintenance. Imagine you have created an application. You have deployed it but do not know how it works. This is where an Application Performance Monitoring tool is of great use. It should be on every developer’s toolkit.

As organizations strive to meet the challenges of digital transformation, they are adopting newer technologies to build more robust software systems. Next generation observability solutions are paving the way to help them meander this maze to deliver better customer experiences and drive business results.

Configuration Management and Change Tracking are well known key tenets of project management. Change tracking and controlled change ensure that there is a record of the state of a system and if issues arise the cause can be linked to effects. In this blog, I will use a real-world example to demonstrate the importance of configuration and change tracking when it comes to IT observability.

Network and IT infrastructure monitoring is something necessary for all connected organizations today. However, choosing the right network monitoring tool and software is not easy as there is a huge diversity of these tools on the market now. Comprehensive network and IT monitoring tools help you manage your devices and ensure that they are available when you need them. These tools and software offer a wide variety of benefits for companies of all sizes.

Enterprises are increasingly adopting Kubernetes. In fact, Gartner estimates that by 2026 more than 90% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production, an increase from fewer than 40% in 2020. And IDC reports that 80% of new workloads are being developed in containers.

Observability tools have traditionally focused on capturing and analyzing log data to improve application performance monitoring and security. Data observability turns the focus back on the data to improve data quality, tune data infrastructure and identify problems in data engineering pipelines and processes. “Data analysts and business users are the primary consumers of this data,” said Steven Zhang, director of engineering at Hippo Insurance.

Welcome back! In the previous blog, we discussed with our panelists Carlos Casanova, Forrester principal analyst, and Gowrisankar Chinnayan, who heads product management at ManageEngine, why organizations should adopt AIOps, and the challenges they face. Let’s start by acknowledging the increasing interest in AI. More enterprises are adopting AI-based solutions as they discover how AI can help manage IT operations.

As an observability provider, we are always confronted with our clients’ goal for faster resolution of problems and better overall performance of their systems. By working on large-scale projects at Logz.io, I see the same main challenge coming up for all: extracting valuable insights from huge volumes of data generated by modern systems and applications.

We’re excited to announce significant improvements to our Archive+Restore capabilities – which enables low-cost long term log storage in AWS S3 or Azure Blob, while providing access to ingest those logs into Logz.io at any time. The first enhancement is Power Search, which will make it faster to restore logs from archived log data in AWS S3 (and soon for Azure Blob) in our Open 360™ platform.

A good website monitoring tool provides plenty of features and is easy to use. But what happens when you find out the tool you were so excited about doesn’t allow you to send information to your existing status dashboard? Now you have to manage two separate tools and even duplicate work. This is not ideal. Integration capabilities of a website monitoring tool make your life easier by seamlessly merging with external tools and dashboards of your business.

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) are becoming the norm for many web-based applications, but too often the benefits of CDNs go unnoticed. If you're looking to increase speed and reduce bandwidth, a CDN can be your solution. This comprehensive guide will provide you with all the information you need to get started using a CDN, including when it makes sense to use one and how they compare to other options.

In this blog post I will introduce you to filtering, based on deep custom variables in Icinga DB Web. In Icinga Web 2 monitoring module, it is not possible to filter deep custom variables. Example of deep custom variables involving dictionaries and arrays: This is because in the database (IDO) the suitable structure for the custom variables is not available. The dictionaries and arrays in the custom variables are saved in json format as shown below.

Monitoring the status of external services connected to your business is essential for providing reliable and efficient customer service. An effective way to stay ahead of any issues is by monitoring all of the services connected to your business so that you can address any potential problems before they have a chance to have a negative impact on operations. In this article, we will be discussing how to monitor external services’ status and the importance of having access to accurate data.

Most Internet-centric organizations today use some form of APM tools, as they should. But they are insufficient. Over the last ten years, the world has completely changed. If you think about it, in the first decade of this millennium, most businesses had an Exchange server, maybe Siebel CRM, a file share, and a range of other business apps, usually hosted in the same building. Everything was on the LAN. Today, it is the exact opposite. Everything is distributed.

We are excited to announce that Elastic has been recognized as a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave™: Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps), Q4 2022 in our first year participating! As organizations modernize their infrastructure and applications, operations and development teams are faced with an exponential growth in data.
