MySQL is the backbone of many applications, and keeping it running smoothly is essential. But monitoring MySQL isn’t just about tracking CPU usage or checking if the database is up. It’s about understanding queries, indexing, slow queries, and resource utilization to ensure performance never takes a hit. This guide walks through everything you need to know to monitor MySQL effectively.

Data build tool (dbt) is an open source service that cleans, aggregates, and models raw data into organized, analytics-ready formats within a data warehouse. dbt Cloud, a fully managed platform by dbt Labs, extends dbt’s capabilities with advanced features such as scheduling, testing, and monitoring, accessible directly from your browser.

For most organizations, Kubernetes is the preferred containerization platform thanks to its scaling capabilities. Scaling is more than a mere technical endeavor—it helps maintain reliability, efficiency, and smooth user experiences while handling huge data without any business disruptions. It also aids in reducing business expenditures by cutting down on manual labor and avoiding deployment failures.

Kubernetes clusters facilitate the management of containerized applications. Imagine coordinating a seamless flow of workloads across servers, ensuring they operate in harmony, regardless of scale. This is exactly what Kubernetes clusters can do for the smooth deployment of your applications. Read on to learn more about Kubernetes clusters, including how to manage them using our list of critical metrics.

This week, security researchers at Wiz published a report about an internal database at DeepSeek being exposed to the internet. This kind of security risk is surprisingly common and can affect any company. The only way to prevent it is through continuous monitoring. But in modern infrastructures, services can be exposed in many different ways, making detection tricky. At Coroot, we realized that the telemetry data we already collect can help identify these risks — without requiring any extra setup.

OpenTelemetry has emerged as the gold standard fueling o11y and SIEM platforms, but transitioning an existing telemetry stack requires careful planning and execution. This guide outlines a practical approach to evaluating, implementing, and scaling OpenTelemetry in production environments.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, DeepSeek has emerged as a potentially transformative player, challenging conventional approaches to AI development with its innovative open-source model. This breakthrough raises important questions about the future of Agentic AI and AGI development, particularly in terms of accessibility and cost-effectiveness.
