What You Can Learn About Cyber Security from the Biggest Breaches in History

It feels like cybersecurity is dominating the newsfeeds, doesn’t it? There is a reason. Cyberattacks and cybercrime have risen dramatically in the last five years. 2020 broke all records in terms of data loss and the number of cyberattacks. Between 2019 and 2020 ransomware attacks alone rose by 62%, the same year that the World Economic Forum identified cyberattacks and data theft as two of the biggest risks to the global economy.

Creating a Free Data Lake with Coralogix

Like many cool tools out there, this project started from a request made by a customer of ours. Having recently migrated to our service, this customer had ~30TB of historical logging data. This is a considerable amount of operational data to leave behind when moving from one SaaS platform to another. Unfortunately, most observability solutions are built around the working assumption that data flows are future-facing.

Istio Log Analysis Guide

Istio has quickly become a cornerstone of most Kubernetes clusters. As your container orchestration platform scales, Istio embeds functionality into the fabric of your cluster that makes monitoring, observability, and flexibility much more straightforward. However, it leaves us with our next question – how do we monitor Istio? This Istio log analysis guide will help you get to the bottom of what your Istio platform is doing.

Stay Alert! Building the Coralogix-Nagios Connector

Ask any DevOps engineer, and they will tell you about all the alerts they enable so they can stay informed about their code. These alerts are the first line of defense in the fight for Perfect Uptime SLA. With every good solution out there, you can find plenty of methods for alerting and monitoring events in the code. Each method has its own reasons and logic for how it works and why it’s the best option. But what can you do when you need to connect two opposing methodologies? You innovate!

Limit Coralogix usage per account using Azure Functions

At Payoneer, we use Coralogix to collect logs from all our environments from QA to PROD. Each environment has its own account in Coralogix and thus its own limit. Coralogix price modules are calculated per account. We as a company have our budget per account and we know how much we pay per each one. In case you exceed the number of logs assigned per account you will pay for the “extra” logs. You can see the exact calculation in this link.

Introducing Log Observability for Microservices

Two popular deployment architectures exist in software: the out-of-favor monolithic architecture and the newly popular microservices architecture. Monolithic architectures were quite popular in the past, with almost all companies adopting them. As time went on, the drawbacks of these systems drove companies to rework entire systems to use microservices instead.
