If you need to replicate a user error, you’ll know how difficult it can be to pinpoint the cause. Usually, you’d look at the stack trace or ask the user themselves. However, that’s a lot of guesswork, especially if the stack trace is obfuscated. We’ll show you how to replicate the error faster using Crash Reporting’s Breadcrumbs and the Real User Monitoring Sessions feature.
We are planing with more events and camps in 2018/2019. Please let us know if you are interested in joining us in Washington, D.C., Tel Aviv, Berlin or Stockholm.
Centralized log management lets you decide who can access log data without actually having access to the servers. You can also correlate data from different sources, such as the operating system, your applications, and the firewall. Another benefit is that user do not need to log in to hundreds of devices to find out what is happening. You can also use data normalization and enhancement rules to create value for people who might not be familiar with a specific log type.
With 5,000 engineers, 325,000 customers running its software, 2 data centers fully owned and operated, 200 node sites around the world, and a diverse architecture developed over almost four decades, Bloomberg has that many reasons to be committed to monitoring.
We all like a pretty dashboard. For us data nerds, there’s something extremely enticing about the colors and graphs depicting our environment in real-time. But while Kibana and Grafana bask in glory, there is a lot of heavy lifting being done behind the scenes to actually collect the data.
This morning, though, all of our backlogs were a little harder to sift through thanks to a Slack outage in Europe and the US. To calm down, some of us might have turned to our Google Home or Chromecast to unwind while the outage hours piled up, only to find those were down too! What a morning!Now that Slack is running again, let’s take a moment to reflect on what the outage means and what we can learn from it.
Today we are happy to announce the general availability of CFEngine 3.12.0 LTS!

At Mattermost, we set out to build a platform that supports the world’s largest enterprises. To do that, Mattermost needs to be able to accommodate tens of thousands of simultaneous users, all of whom are using the platform in various ways at the same time.
The other day, a newer Engineering Manager here at PagerDuty, Dileshni Jayasinghe, started a Slack thread expressing joy at how fantastic our engineering team is after attending a conference with engineering folk from other organizations. She explained that she’d shared our practice of owning what we build with someone—who then responded by gazing off into the distance and saying, “That’s my dream.”
With businesses collecting millions of metrics, let’s look at how they can efficiently scale and deal with these amounts. As covered in the previous article (A Spike in Sales Is Not Always Good News), analyzing millions of metrics for changes may result in alert storms, notifying users about EVERY change, not just the most significant ones. To bring order to this situation, Anodot groups correlated anomalies together, in a unified alert.
