Metrics are closely associated with cloud infrastructure monitoring or application performance monitoring – we monitor metrics like infrastructure CPU and request latency to understand how our services are responding to changes in the system, which is a good way to surface new production issues. As many teams transition to observability, collecting metric data isn’t enough.

Predictive maintenance is a maintenance strategy that uses machine learning algorithms trained with Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) data to make predictions about future outcomes, such as determining the likelihood of equipment and machinery breaking down. Using a combination of data, statistics, machine learning and modeling, predictive maintenance is able to optimize when and how to execute maintenance on industrial machine assets.

Capital expenditures (CapEx) and operational expenditures (OpEx) are two ways organizations categorize their business expenses. Every organization has a variety of expenses, from office rent to IT infrastructure costs to wages for their employees. To simplify accounting, they organize these costs into different categories, two of the most common being CapEx and OpEx.

Container orchestration is the process of managing containers using automation. It allows organizations to automatically deploy, manage, scale and network containers and hosts, freeing engineers from having to complete these processes manually. As software development has evolved from monolithic applications, containers have become the choice for developing new applications and migrating old ones.

An easy way to communicate with Elasticsearch and Elastic Cloud using Arduino IoT devices At Elastic®, we are constantly looking for new ways to simplify search experience, and we started to look at the IoT world. The collection of data coming from IoT can be quite challenging, especially when we have thousands of devices. Elasticsearch® can be very useful to collect, explore, visualize, and discover data — for all the data coming from multiple devices.

In the world of monitoring and observability, Prometheus has grown into the de-facto standard for monitoring in cloud-native environments because of its robust data collection mechanism, flexible querying capabilities, and integration with other tools for rich dashboarding and visualization.
