As businesses scale across hybrid and multi-cloud environments and integrate AI-powered technologies, complexity grows — and with it, the risk of performance degradation and cost of downtime. To avoid facing customer-impacting IT issues, organizations need better ways to correlate data across environments, detect anomalies before they escalate, and resolve incidents more efficiently. That’s where Splunk and Cisco come in.

There are several big barriers to an effective tracing strategy. Modern applications require complex code instrumentation, and legacy applications might not be so easy to alter, and that’s assuming every engineering team can be engaged to make the necessary changes. eBPF & OpenTelemetry flip this entire problem on its head, and Coralogix is one of the first major observability platforms to leverage this exciting functionality, to provide an unobtrusive, low risk overview of your system.

If you’re considering OpenSearch for your search and analytics infrastructure, the first question that likely comes to mind is: what will it cost? OpenSearch, the powerful, open-source search engine and analytics platform, provides a highly scalable solution for businesses. However, while the software itself is free to use, there are still costs associated with hosting, maintaining, and scaling OpenSearch clusters.

The demand for seamless user experiences and robust system reliability is at an all-time high, and businesses are racing to meet these expectations. But as system complexity increases, traditional monitoring tools are falling short. Observability offers a paradigm shift. It goes beyond tracking metrics and provides deep insights to understand the “why” behind system behavior by parsing and contextualizing unstructured data.

For system admins and developers, being able to track error logs in real time is crucial. It’s not just about fixing problems; it’s about keeping everything running smoothly, ensuring systems perform at their best, and catching issues before they snowball into bigger ones. This guide breaks down the tools and commands that make real-time log monitoring easier and more effective, offering more than just the basics.

Ensuring that your web applications run smoothly and securely is essential. NGINX, known for its high performance and scalability, plays a key role in delivering web content. But to keep everything running efficiently, you need to monitor and analyze its logs properly. This guide will walk you through how to configure, analyze, and make the most of NGINX logs to stay on top of your server’s health.
