Monolithic and microservices architectures represent two fundamentally different approaches to software design. By understanding the benefits and drawbacks of each architectural style, developers can make informed decisions about which approach best fits their application needs. While monolithic architecture bundles all application functionality into a single deployable unit, microservices architecture breaks the application into smaller, independently deployable services.

Cloud adoption is at an all-time high but unified network views haven’t kept up. With 98% of organizations using cloud infrastructure and 95% supporting remote workers, what once lived in a controlled environment is now scattered across public clouds, hybrid setups, personal devices, and remote endpoints. The result? A visibility crisis and it’s hitting IP address management (IPAM) hard.

Logs play a crucial role in DevOps and software development, especially when troubleshooting issues. However, raw, unformatted logs can quickly become overwhelming and difficult to navigate. This is where logging formatters help by turning messy log entries into clear, structured data, making it easier to pinpoint problems. In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about logging formatters—how they work, why they matter, and tips for implementing them effectively in your workflow.

Learn how to reduce cloud costs without sacrificing performance by integrating Latitude.sh's compute, Wasabi's storage, and Megaport's private network into your multicloud architecture. IT teams are under increasing pressure to reduce costs without sacrificing performance or scalability in their cloud infrastructure. I’ve had several customers bring up a need for reducing compute cost and storage costs, the need for custom hardware specs, and the like.

Time is running out to be in full compliance with the EU Cyber Resilience Act, and we’re helping developers and manufacturers understand how to do just that. Here’s what we’ve been up to since March in helping the wider community understand how to meet the CRA head-on.

To manage today’s complex and distributed data center environments, data center professionals need more than spreadsheets, static diagrams, and siloed monitoring tools. They need a real-time and interactive view of their infrastructure, a data center digital twin. Modern Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software makes this possible. Far beyond basic monitoring or asset tracking, DCIM software delivers a true digital twin.

Enterprise Policy Management (EPM) is a programmable policy-as-code layer that controls the security, compliance, and flow of artifacts across the software supply chain. Teams can codify rules once and apply them continuously across repositories. With Cloudsmith’s platform, organizations extend policy enforcement across teams, environments, and geographies without introducing friction, including the open source packages that the chain depends on.
