Suppose you are a user of the Microsoft integration stack, and your organization also uses SAP. In that case, you will likely have use cases where an IDOC triggers integration processes in SAP being published. One of the good things about Logic Apps on Azure is that a connector for SAP allows you to register to receive IDOCS published by SAP, and you can then use them in your integration processes.

DevOps is an IT delivery concept that combines people, practices and tools with the shared goal of accelerating the development of applications and services. Adopting DevOps at enterprise level typically requires: The continuous development of DevOps practices, as well as other factors like the rapid pace of modern code changes, facilitates a need for DevOps monitoring: a set of tools and processes to support the entire software development lifecycle.

GitOps modernizes software management and operations by allowing developers to declaratively manage infrastructure and code using a single source of truth, usually a Git repository. Many development teams and organizations have adopted GitOps procedures to improve the creation and delivery of software applications. For a GitOps initiative to work, an orchestration system like Kubernetes is crucial.

Redis is designed to be fast. In most cases, it is. However, there are times when Redis may be slow, due to network issues, disk latency, or other factors. When this happens, it is important to be able to detect the slow down and investigate the cause. Latency is the maximum delay between the time a client issues a command and the time the reply to the command is received by the client. Redis has strict requirements on average and worst case latency.

The life of a sysadmin or SRE is often difficult, but occasionally very simple things can make a huge difference. Basic monitoring of your systemd services is one of those simple things, which we sometimes overlook. The simplest question one would want to know is if the thing that’s supposed to be running is actually running at all. If you use systemd services, you can guarantee an answer to that question within minutes using Netdata.
