The latest News and Information on Cloud monitoring, security and related technologies.
As a developer, I love the versatility of Python. Over the years I have used Python for so many different use cases: game development, APIs, IoT, machine learning, and web development. It can scale tall applications in a single bound and take on any challenge faster than you can pip install flask. Something you learn very quickly in the world of app development is to build everything for scale.
Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) offer an ever-expanding array of instance types, ensuring that for any given workload there exists the perfect hosting option that matches the exact needs of that app or business service. But with this expansion comes an ever-increasing challenge to match the workloads to the offerings – there are many things to consider.
There’s more to running a cloud service provider (CSP) business than simply offering an excellent service. Chances are, in time, you will want to grow and scale. However, for many, this is intimidating. Where do you start? How can you create sustainable profit? Even the most progressive CSPs face challenges; they haven’t just built a high-quality customer base out of thin air.
Flexera’s State of the Cloud Report 2022 pointed out that significant cloud spending is wasted, a major issue that is getting more critical as cloud costs continue to rise. In the current macroeconomic conditions, companies focus on identifying ways to reduce spending. To effectively do that, we need to understand the pricing model. We can then work towards the challenges of cost monitoring, optimization, and forecasting.
Companies are increasingly adopting managed Kubernetes services, such as Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), to build container-based applications. Leveraging a managed Kubernetes service is a quick and easy way to deploy an enterprise-grade Kubernetes cluster, offload mundane operations such as provisioning new nodes, upgrading the OS/Kubernetes, and scaling resources according to business needs.
Cloud automation can do a lot for your organization, making it possible to automate resource creation, management, and housekeeping tasks. If you’ve thought that cloud automation is out of reach, or you’re curious to learn what it can do, we’re excited to announce a brand new webinar that can help! Discover cloud automation in action and walk away with code that you can get up and running within an hour.
Due to its complex nature compared to the on-prem architecture, the cloud presents several challenges to maintaining observability in your apps. This is why you need a robust cloud monitoring solution to care for your cloud-based apps and your cloud. As more and more companies move their operations to the cloud, the need for cloud monitoring solutions continues to grow. Understanding the various aspects of cloud monitoring and how it affects your application is essential.
