If you’re going to move assets to Azure – or any public cloud, you’re going to need some help. As a cloud consulting firm with a top-notch infrastructure performance monitoring application, we help enterprises navigate obstacles on the path to the cloud all the time. We’ve also felt the pain of sizing and pricing in our cloud journey, too. That’s why we created Galileo Cloud Compass (or GCC as we sometimes call it).

We silently launched a new beta feature on elmah.io a couple of weeks ago: Lighthouse results. Let me spend a couple of minutes of your time introducing the new feature and how to use it.

In December, information security researchers discovered a serious vulnerability in the popular open-source logging library, Log4j. If exploited, this vulnerability, known as Log4Shell, could allow malicious attackers to execute code remotely on any targeted computer. Millions of computers use Log4j. According to one study, 93% of all cloud environments are affected by the vulnerability.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I said a lot of inflammatory things about metrics. “Metrics are shit salad.” “Metrics are simply nerfed dimensions.” “Metrics suck,” “metrics are legacy,” “metrics and time series aggregates will fucking kneecap you.” I cannot tell a lie; Twitter will testify that I’ve spent the past six years ragging on metrics.

We know customers and users today demand new features to be frequently released to their favorite apps. Plus they expect any bugs or issues hindering a great user experience to be fixed—and fast. Here we're going to cover new capabilities built to help you keep up with the business by measuring how well your team works in small batches and identifying previously invisible cross-team dependencies in your development and delivery processes.

Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) is a software overlay that decouples WAN configuration and management from the underlying network transport medium (5G/LTE, MPLS, xDSL, etc) and dynamically routes WAN traffic. To the uninitiated, that’s a mouthful. But it’s one of the most interesting trends of the last few years. Let’s jump on the bandwagon! Time for a primer on SD-WAN, why it matters, and where it’s heading now and into the future.
