The global march towards delivering operational resilience across the financial sector steadily continues.

In this k6 series I have covered HTTP request testing with k6 and performance testing with k6. I designed these tutorials to introduce you to k6 and to show you how to use k6 for performance testing of microservices. As the third tutorial in the k6 series, this will cover how you can store your k6 test results locally and also how to schedule your load tests using CircleCI’s scheduled pipelines feature.

In this article you will learn about Node-RED, a popular tool for rapidly gluing together different types of hardware and software. You’ll learn about some of the core concepts of Node-RED and then learn how to make some workflows like storing data from a sensor using an MQTT broker and InfluxDB.

Large applications can produce very large symbol files when debug information is enabled (especially at the higher, more verbose levels of debug info!). This article describes some techniques for reducing debug symbol file sizes! Like Interrupt? Subscribe to get our latest posts straight to your mailbox.

Atri Mandal, HEAL’s AI/ML expert, has written a second blog about the 4P strategy, this time primarily focusing on solution recommendation which gives useful suggestions to the SREs on how to fix problems pro-actively.

Network monitoring is a set of automatic processes that help to detect the status of each element of your network infrastructure. We are talking about routers, switches, access points, specific servers, intermediate network elements, and other related systems or applications (such as web servers, web applications, or database servers).In other words, network monitoring can be understood as taking a look at all the connected elements that are relevant to you or your organization.

Nowadays, microservice architecture is a pattern that helps to innovate quicker by enabling easier scalability, giving language flexibility, improving fault isolation, etc. Systems built this way also bring some downsides. Moving parts, concurrent invocations, and different retries policies can make operating and troubleshooting such systems challenging. Without proper tools, correlating logs with metrics may be difficult. To overcome these challenges, you need observability.
