This is the fifth part of a 7-part series on the salient features that IT professionals should look for in high-performing IT infrastructure orchestration platforms for enterprise use cases.

In this article, we will take a look at what Graphite and Grafana are and what they are used for. Some people might mix these two up, but they do completely different jobs when creating a monitoring system. Let’s take a look these tools in more depth.

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service — or Amazon EKS — is a managed service that enables you to run Kubernetes on AWS without having to manage your own Kubernetes clusters. The JFrog Platform is available on AWS, making it super simple to deploy applications reliably and predictably, scale them quickly, roll out new features easily, and make the most of hardware resources.

The growing popularity of IoT devices has revolutionized the way we interact with technology. From smart homes to industrial automation, these devices have become an integral part of our lives. However, managing and monitoring a large fleet of IoT devices can be a daunting task. With the sheer volume of data being generated by these devices, it becomes crucial to have a robust monitoring system in place.

Collectd is a data collection software that allows you to fetch metrics from a machine being monitored locally and push them to Graphite. Everything is done by plugins. The collectd plugins can collect metrics on CPU, memory, Postgres, JVM, and many more metrics. Plugins can also be used to push these metrics to Graphite, aggregate data, send alerts, and send notifications to email.

The old way we’ve thought about configuration management software has passed — we need a new perspective that takes into account the importance of policy enforcement. Let’s dig deeper into what this means for DevOps, your overall security and compliance strategy, and IT.

OpenTelemetry vs. Prometheus - Difference in architecture, and metrics.

We’re pleased to announce that the Komodor platform has published an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) Blueprints CDK Add-On. Amazon EKS is a managed Kubernetes service that streamlines the deployment and scaling of cloud-based or on-prem K8s clusters.

In the constantly evolving world of technology, managing containerized applications at a scale that can match growing business demands is a challenging task. Microsoft, however, has emerged as a leader in this field, offering the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). AKS is a managed container orchestration service that provides a rich and robust platform for developers to deploy, scale, and manage their applications.

The rise of self-hosting has revolutionized the way businesses operate online. With organizations increasingly moving away from traditional hosting services to manage their own infrastructure, the need for effective monitoring solutions has become paramount. However, self-hosting monitoring poses numerous challenges that can make it a daunting task for many businesses.
