Excited to launch our first newsletter. We are delighted to have crossed 1.6k stars on GitHub, growing more than 30% last month. Catch up on what we're upto at SigNoz!

We recently released uptime monitoring, a pretty big addition to our set of features. Our customers have often requested it, and it was a logical next step for us to add uptime monitoring to our app. In today’s post, we’ll explain how we went from considering uptime monitoring impossible to build, to building it in a week. We’ll break down how seemingly over-engineering can really pay off in the end.

Network anomalies vary in nature. While some of them are easy to understand at first sight, there are anomalies that require investigation before a resolution can be made. The MITRE ATT&CK framework introduced in Kemp Flowmon ADS 11.3 streamlines the analysis process and gives security analyst additional insight by leveraging knowledge of adversaries' techniques explaining network anomalies via the ATT&CK framework point of view.

When we talk about metrics in software delivery, a lot of developers think of execution metrics — things like throughput, delivery and number of deploys. But in reality, those metrics don’t motivate anyone — at least not without connecting them to a bigger picture. I’ve worked in software for 23 years. I’m a three-time founder and four-time CTO, responsible for leading a 200+ member distributed engineering organization.

You’re going to run into network issues during normal operations—in part because so many kinds of errors can cause noticeable problems in your network. Identifying the root cause of each issue is critical and to do so successfully, you want to make sure you have the right network troubleshooting solutions in your arsenal before wading in. This helps ensure you have a clear understanding of the scope of the problem before you attempt any network troubleshooting steps.
