Looking for a straightforward way to collect NGINX metrics with OpenTelemetry and send them to your Graphite-based monitoring setup? Unlike Prometheus, which requires configuring scrape jobs and query language nuances, Carbon/Graphite offers a simpler setup with minimal overhead—just send metrics as plain text and query them easily with familiar tools like Grafana. Whether you're setting up dashboards, alerts, or just keeping an eye on traffic, this guide will get you actionable insights in no time!

In recent years, many businesses have begun a process known as cloud repatriation. Cloud repatriation is when companies migrate their applications, data, and workloads from the public cloud to on-premises infrastructure. According to IDC, 70-80% of companies are repatriating at least some of their data each year.

In bridging traditional enterprise environments with modern GPU resources, we're helping organizations build AI infrastructure that's truly ready for production workloads. Co-authored by Duncan Ng, Vice President Solutions Engineering, Vultr As enterprises move from AI experimentation to production deployment, most are realizing a fundamental truth: Successful AI adoption requires more than just access to GPU computing power.

Engineering’s gotten really complicated. The rush to “innovate or die” created more code, more tools, and more teams—without a single, unifying way to keep it all healthy and moving. The result? Orphaned services, slow releases, and endless overhead... just to name a few.

We here at JFrog have long advocated for promoting – never rebuilding – release candidates as they advance across the stages of your SDLC. For many JFrog customers, that meant using JFrog’s “Build Promotion” capabilities. Now you can level up your CI/CD game with promotions using Release Lifecycle Management (RLM)! In this article we’ll show you why promotions with RLM are more simple, secure, and scalable than our legacy build promotion API.

As systems grow more distributed and complex, having a reliable way to monitor and understand what's happening across your infrastructure becomes essential. Telemetry data provides the visibility needed to keep everything running smoothly, whether you're managing microservices, cloud environments, or sophisticated AI systems. In this guide, we’ll break down what a telemetry data platform is, why it’s so important, and how you can choose the right one to meet your needs.

When working with Kubernetes, pods are the fundamental building blocks of deployment. But not all pods are created equal. Understanding the different types of pods and their use cases is crucial for optimizing workloads, ensuring reliability, and maintaining efficiency in your cluster. Let's break it all down.
