A few days ago, I challenged myself: Could I create a CPU throttling monitor without using StackState's docs page? I'll go a bit deeper into CPU throttling later, but first: Why this mission? At StackState, we believe that every software developer should be able to observe the health and reliability of their own application — quickly and easily.

In recent years, hybrid cloud environments have emerged as a popular, if not de facto, choice for many organizations seeking flexibility, scalability, and security in their IT infrastructure. Industry research firm Mordor Intelligence pegs hybrid cloud as a nearly $130bn market in 2024, growing at a better than 22% clip over the next five years.

Late last year we announced ScienceLogic’s Hollywood release, aimed at accelerating AIOps adoption through its human-friendly platform. By integrating generative AI insights with observability and automation, we took a big step forward in simplifying the work of IT teams. A key component of this goal was upgrading SL1’s features, specifically our now fully integrated hybrid cloud monitoring for faster troubleshooting.

Imagine a scenario in which you take a call from a customer who tells you that a customer service agent promised them a full refund. This confuses you because the reasons do not meet the criteria for a refund. However, you have no evidence to prove the customer is telling the truth. Now, if only you could check what had been said on the call. Enter call monitoring. The global call center market alone is expected to reach $741.7 billion by 2030.

Based on our experience working with thousands of mobile developer teams, we developed a mobile monitoring maturity curve here at Sentry. We hypothesized that once teams achieved stability and were no longer firefighting and fixing crashes, they’d shift to streamlining workflows and eventually focus more on optimizing mobile app performance. In a recent workshop, we asked mobile devs where they fell on the curve. The results were surprising.

K-12 school districts may use 40+ different K-12 software and platforms – from communication tools like Zoom to learning management systems (LMS) such as Instructure or Clever. K-12 software is designed to alleviate a strain on typically small IT departments. Thus, some software was even built by ex-K12 system administrators, such as One To One Plus, to help schools deal with their unique challenges.
