When the world transitioned to a remote workspace, one of the things that most of us figured out quickly was that some applications just don’t work well with corporate VPN. Video and voice applications, like Microsoft Teams, are essential to business operations. I wouldn’t want to add another point of failure that I’d need to troubleshoot if I didn’t have to.
FortiGate, a next-generation firewall from IT Cyber Security leaders Fortinet, provides the ultimate threat protection for businesses of all sizes. FortiGate helps you understand what is happening on your network, and informs you about certain network activities, such as the detection of a virus, a visit to an invalid website, an intrusion, a failed login attempt, and myriad others. This post will show you how Coralogix can provide analytics and insights for your FortiGate logs.
“Smart” is the buzzword for strategic industries operating in Energy, Utilities, and Transportation. We are also starting to see this “Smart” nomenclature used in local authorities, defense and public services.
One of the greatest strengths of containers is the ability to spin more of them up quickly. As the volume of traffic to your application increases, you can create more application containers on the fly to handle it, in almost no time at all. Kubernetes ships with autoscaling baked in, giving you the power to scale out when the system detects an increase in traffic—automatically!
Enterprises are using Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) solutions like Microsoft Teams and Zoom, and Contact Center as a Service Solutions (CCaaS) like Five9 and Genesys to improve communications, simplify operations, and accelerate IT agility. As the COVID-19 outbreak clearly demonstrated, UCaaS and CCaaS solutions are ideal for delivering enterprise communications services to remote workers, mobile users, and small/home offices.

Our journey with Elastic began with a search for a single monitoring platform service for all kinds of applications and infrastructure across geographies and in the cloud. Like many other organizations who use Elastic, our story does not end there.
We set out with a plan this year to nurture and grow our developer ecosystem. In 2020, we launched our Template Library to empower joint users of LogDNA and our partners to have an out-of-the-box logging experience from every layer of their stack. As the use of these templates has grown, users have told us that they save them time from manually creating Views, Boards, and Screens, and helps them gain insight from their logs much quicker.
In today’s complex IT infrastructures, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers play an indispensable role in automating IP allocation and configuration. A DHCP server’s capacity to allocate IPs to the requesting clients in real-time is one of the factors that ensures constant uptime of dynamic networks. However, even though a network’s availability depends on them, DHCP servers are often not closely monitored by IT teams.
Many of you use HashiCorp Consul for service discovery. It makes connecting one backend application or service to another easy: Your Consul servers store a catalog of addresses to all of your services; when an application within the network wants to discover where a service is listening, it asks Consul, which gives it the address.
This blog article will cover how to monitor your nginx web server with Bleemeo, what is monitored and graphed by default and how to go further by configuring custom dashboards to have a global overview of your infrastructure.
For the first time, a software load balancer exceeds 2-million RPS on a single Arm instance. A few weeks ago, while I was working on an HAProxy issue related to thread locking contention, I found myself running some tests on a server with an 8-core, 16-thread Intel Xeon W2145 processor that we have in our lab. Although my intention wasn’t to benchmark the proxy, I observed HAProxy reach 1.03 million HTTP requests per second.
All networks, no matter how sophisticated, are vulnerable to attack from outsiders. They can also face compromise from poor program integration, outdated software, lagging connections, and insufficient bandwidth. These issues impede the efficiency of your workforce and can frustrate clients who depend on reaching you through reliable communication methods. A technologically advanced network needs constant attention to run at peak efficiency.
In this post, we are going to look at different tools and strategies for Network Performance Monitoring. To follow along with this blog article, make sure to book a demo and sign up for MetricFire's free trial where a lot of our customers are doing network performance monitoring using Hosted Graphite and Prometheus service. These tools are part of MetricFire’s offering.
With expectations around digital experience never higher, organizations should seriously consider implementing a network monitoring solution to support optimal business performance.
A big topic of interest nowadays is web application monitoring. Application performance monitoring and log analytics are required by businesses of all sizes to ensure their web applications’ smooth operation. If your application serves as the backend for your business processes, it is critical for your organization. You need to know, in real-time, when and why it breaks. To answer these questions, we will use Logz.io products to monitor a simple web application served by Nginx.
IT professionals are now adapting to remote environments and learning to manage a distributed, homebound workforce. In recent conversations with IT pros, many have cited that connectivity/VPN and home network issues are their top challenges but they lack the visibility to diagnose and troubleshoot these problems. Catchpoint for employee experience monitoring gives IT teams what they need: visibility from remote users’ devices to any business-critical application across any network.
