Austin, TX, 12 September 2023: Canonical is thrilled to announce the listing of Ubuntu Pro 22.04 LTS with real-time kernel in AWS Marketplace, a digital catalog with thousands of software listings from independent software vendors that make it easy to find, test, buy, and deploy software that runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The costs of lackluster incident management are truly far-reaching. We’ve learned they go beyond explicit costs, like lost revenue and labor expenses. And that they go beyond the opportunity cost of engineers being diverted from building revenue-building features. The final area of incident cost that’s often overlooked is cultural drain.

A leading provider of advanced network communications and technology solutions for consumers, small businesses, enterprise organizations, and carrier partners across the U.S. wanted to become more powerful, using automation, as to better understand the customer impact of bad weather and proactively improve their customer experience.

With the huge growth in volume and complexity, data management has become a key priority in most Enterprises. But for this data to be utilised in a meaningful way, how do you tackle the added complexity of controlling access across both technical and business departments? Our CPO, David Gummer recently interviewed the CEO of the popular Universal Database management tool, DBeaver, Tatiana Krupenya, to discuss the often-feared topic of sharing access to the database.

Autoscaling the resources and services in your Kubernetes cluster is essential if your system is going to meet variable workloads. You can’t rely on manual scaling to help the cluster handle unexpected load changes. While cluster autoscaling certainly allows for faster and more efficient deployment, the practice also reduces resource waste and helps decrease overall costs.

Getting your applications running on Kubernetes is one thing: keeping them up and running is another thing entirely. While the goal is to deploy applications that never fail, the reality is that applications often crash, terminate, or restart with little warning. Even before that point, applications can have less visible problems like memory leaks, network latency, and disconnections. To prevent applications from behaving unexpectedly, we need a way of continually monitoring them.

CloudWatch and Sentry are two powerful tools that play crucial roles in monitoring and error tracking, making them essential for any organization that wants to ensure the smooth operation of its applications and systems. CloudWatch, developed by Amazon Web Services (AWS), offers comprehensive monitoring capabilities for AWS resources and applications, providing real-time insights into system performance and resource utilization.

Kubernetes has become the backbone of modern container orchestration, enabling seamless deployment and management of containerized applications. However, as applications grow in complexity, so do the challenges of managing their Kubernetes infrastructure. Enter cdk8s, a revolutionary toolset that transforms Kubernetes configuration into a developer-friendly experience.
