During the AWS summit in London, Renee Hunt, the CTO of Compare the Market, shared their journey of migrating from EC2 to EKS and the obstacles they faced along the way.

AWS Systems Manager (SSM), an end-to-end management solution for AWS resources, provides a marketplace of pre-packaged software scripts for SSM-managed Windows and Linux instances, enabling AWS users to automatically install custom software on large groups of instances.

One of the first considerations for FinOps teams trying to lower their public cloud spend is investing in long-term savings vehicles available from their Cloud Service Provider. These programs can provide customers with upwards of 72% savings off on-demand prices, in return for a 1-to-3-year usage commitment, so it’s pretty common that we see them in use by our customers.

Cloud infrastructure and the applications it hosts generate millions of rows of raw data in short periods. Viewed in the context of everyday business activities, most of the data makes little sense. So many companies amass mountains of this type of data in data lakes and data warehouses, hoping to figure out how to use it later but end up never tapping into it.

In today’s fast-paced business world, organizations rely heavily on data to make wise decisions and streamline operations.

Managing permissions is not just about controlling access; it’s about maintaining the integrity of data, ensuring compliance, and optimizing operational efficiency.

Application performance monitoring (APM) is much more than capturing and tracking errors and stack traces. Today’s cloud-based businesses deploy applications across various regions and even cloud providers. So, harnessing the power of metadata provided by the Elastic APM agents becomes more critical. Leveraging the metadata, including crucial information like cloud region, provider, and machine type, allows us to track costs across the application stack.

In the multifaceted world of cloud computing, managing and safeguarding data becomes paramount. Azure Blob Storage Versioning serves as a pivotal feature within the Microsoft Azure platform, providing the essential capacity to control and maintain various versions of data.
