Embedded World North America 2024 Recap

Last week, a handful of Memfolks had the opportunity to travel to Austin to attend the first ever Embedded World North America1! Embedded World NA welcomed 3,500 visitors and 180 vendors across 3 days2. While it was surely a smaller showing than Nueremburg’s Embedded World, we still wanted to quickly touch on our takeaways from the event. In this post, we will cover what we learned from the first Embedded World North America.

How to quickly configure Grafana Cloud Application Observability with Open Telemetry Operator

Monitoring application health is a lot like monitoring your personal health. Vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, and overall well-being can spot problems before they escalate, helping us maintain good health. Similarly, application health requires constant monitoring of performance indicators like CPU usage, memory consumption, and application response times.

Stronger together: Sumo Logic and AWS partnership expands with five new competencies

Identifying performance bottlenecks in complex applications

Performance bottlenecks can sneak in and slow everything to a crawl regardless of how advanced your application is. These hidden culprits can turn a seamless user experience into a frustrating one. In this blog, we’ll uncover the most common bottlenecks that drag down complex applications and share proven strategies to identify and resolve them. By the end, you'll have the tools to keep your application running at top speed, regardless of the workload.

How to Dig Deeper on the Network When You Don't Have NetFlow

Bro, I ain’t got flow isn’t only heard at your local hip hop mic night. It’s a gripe from many network administrators who have inherited small environments, networks with lower-end gear, or who are in the trenches dealing with a time-sensitive issue and need to dig deep—now. NetFlow is a Layer 3 protocol that, over time, allows administrators to see how much traffic is being generated, by whom, and where that traffic is going.

Introducing SNMP Poller History

Despite everyone’s best efforts, network failures happen. And when downtime means lost productivity, fast troubleshooting becomes an integral part of IT operations. So with the addition of SNMP poller history, Auvik providing users an archive for troubleshooting, analysis, and planning. When it comes to managing network issues, diagnosing the root cause is the first step. And often, there’s a gap between when an incident occurs, and when it’s reported. And herein lies a big problem.

Network Time Synchronization: Why and How It Works

When something goes wrong, you need to look through your log messages and figure out important things like which device saw the problem first. This automatically tells you where to start looking for the root cause. If your clocks aren’t synchronized, it becomes much more difficult to correlate log messages between devices. More generally, you want to know if the similar log messages you’re seeing are related to the same incident or if maybe some of them happened much earlier or later.

Unifying Security and Data Recovery for More Seamless and Robust Cyber Defenses

Cybercriminals are constantly looking for ways to bypass defenses. You need to plan for when attackers will breach your defenses. When attackers exploit a vulnerability, you need a solution that quickly detects activities, mitigates attacks, expels attackers and enables recovery from any damage caused. It’s becoming increasingly clear that having a unified approach to data security is essential.
