Agent vs. Agentless Monitoring

Network monitoring is a critical aspect of managing and maintaining the performance and security of a network. It includes monitoring and analyzing network traffic, devices, and systems to identify potential issues and ensure that the network operates efficiently and effectively. Network monitoring can help organizations identify and prevent security breaches, identify and troubleshoot performance issues, and ensure compliance with industry regulations and standards.

IoT Management with JFrog Connect (5-Minute Demo)

JFrog Connect is a modern Linux-first IoT platform designed to efficiently monitor, manage and update edge and IoT devices at scale. You can quickly register thousands of devices, organize them into logical groups, automate software updates for entire device fleets, and leverage secure tools to remotely troubleshoot devices from the comfort of your laptop.

Open source security: best practices for early detection & risk mitigation

What knowledge, tools, and processes do you need to keep your open-source software free from vulnerabilities and threats? Many open-source projects are well-maintained by software vendors or individuals. Yet, studies show that 80% of codebases used by enterprises contain vulnerabilities (half of which are high-risk vulnerabilities that can be exploited). Hackers scan for outdated systems that contain vulnerabilities, which they then exploit by deploying targeted malware. In this webinar, we will discuss best practices for keeping your systems up to date.

Monitor code quality in Datadog with SonarQube

SonarQube is a tool for static code analysis that integrates with your existing CI pipelines to run quality checks on your codebase as it changes. As you develop and release new code, constant monitoring of code quality is crucial to ensure compliance, stability, and security. SonarQube’s Clean-As-You-Code philosophy helps to avoid technical debt by running regular code checks and alerting you to any problems early on.

Why Migrate Azure VMs to VMware: The Benefits

As organizations transition to the cloud, they are faced with the question of which platform is best suited to their needs. While Microsoft Azure has been a popular choice for cloud computing, many organizations are finding that VMware is a better fit for their virtualized infrastructure needs. This article will explore the reasons why you should consider migrating your Azure VMs to VMware and the benefits that come with making this transition.

Exploring Azure Kubernetes Service and its monitoring capabilities

What is Azure Kubernetes Service? Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is a fully managed open-source container orchestration service offered by Azure. Provisioning, scaling, and upgrading resources can be done without causing downtime with Azure Kubernetes Service. Container orchestration in Kubernetes enables deployed application components to be isolated in distinct containers that can scale independently. A cluster made up of these containers functions as a microservices-based software product.

Cloud repatriation drivers

With the looming macroeconomic uncertainties that are affecting growth, companies are trying to control their costs by downsizing their staff and reducing their infrastructure costs. One way to reduce infrastructure costs is repatriating workloads from public clouds, which we refer to by “cloud repatriation”. According to a 2021 survey by 451 Research, 48% of respondents repatriated some of their workloads from cloud providers.

Monitor your Argo CD clusters with Datadog

Argo CD is a declarative continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes developed by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Argo CD automates your application deployment by continuously monitoring the live state of your containers and comparing it against the desired state in your Kubernetes manifest files, then pulling changes into your Kubernetes clusters as needed.
