The latest News and Information on Cloud monitoring, security and related technologies.
Monitoring is not a goal, but a path. Depending on the maturity of your project, it can be labeled in one of these six steps of the cloud monitoring journey. You will find best practices for all of them and examine what companies get from each one. From classic virtual machines to large Kubernetes clusters or even serverless architectures, companies have adopted the cloud as a mainstream way to provide their online services.
You can use CircleCI’s cloud resources to run your CI/CD jobs, but there may be times you want to run them on your infrastructure. If your team imposes privileged access and control requirements, a self-hosted infrastructure might be best for running your jobs. CircleCI’s self-hosted runners lets you do exactly that. It is easy to get started and start using self-hosted runners.
Managing your clusters has become a complex and confusing task. With scattered tools and the requirement to learn specific tools from cloud providers, many companies have trouble making the most of the cloud. That's where OpenCP comes in. Join us as we explore the benefits of simplifying management across cloud platforms with OpenCP. We’ll dive into the benefits of using OpenCP, how it works, and how it is built on the best practices of kubectl and kubeapi.
Cloud computing has become an essential tool for businesses looking to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve reliability. Among the most popular cloud providers, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are two of the leading players in the industry. Both AWS and Azure offer Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solutions that allow businesses to host and manage virtual machines in the cloud.
For the past couple of years, no one has been able to escape the effects of supply chain problems throughout their personal and professional lives. According to our recent State of Hybrid Cloud Storage survey, storage and the IT equipment that supports storage systems were no exception, and disruptions created extra work and headaches for those teams.
An Azure Load Balancer is a Layer-4 (TCP, UDP) load balancer that provides high availability by distributing incoming traffic among healthy VMs. A load balancer health probe monitors a given port on each VM and only distributes traffic to an operational VM. Azure Load Balancers are frequently used in Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) deployments. From our work with Azure Load Balancer, we think there are 4 key metrics and events you should proactively monitor and alert on.
