Optimizing PostgreSQL Performance for Large Tables with Boolean Filters

Short Summary: In this guide, we address performance problems that occur when PostgreSQL queries very large tables containing low-cardinality boolean fields. It also demonstrates how composite indexes, created and tested with Devart tools, allow PostgreSQL to locate the required rows directly instead of scanning the entire table.

Build vs Buy Monitoring: The Real Cost Breakdown for IT Teams

Every IT team eventually faces this question: should we build our own monitoring system or buy an existing solution? On the surface, building seems attractive. You get complete control, no vendor lock-in, and the illusion of "free" since you're using internal resources. But the math rarely works out that way. Let's break down what it actually costs to build, when building genuinely makes sense, and how to make the right decision for your team.

Harness Artifact Registry: Your Unified OCI-Compliant Gateway for Secure Artifact Management | Harness Blog

If you've worked with builds and deployments, then you already know how central Docker images, dependencies, and containers are to modern software delivery. The introduction of Docker revolutionised how we package and run software, while the Open Container Initiative (OCI) brought much-needed standardisation to container formats and distribution. Docker made containers mainstream; OCI made them universal.

SquaredUp vs Grafana: The Enterprise IT dashboard showdown

Modern enterprises operate across an increasingly complex mix of hybrid cloud services, and productivity platforms. As environments scale, stakeholders need a single pane of glass (SPoG) to understand what’s happening across IT operations without jumping across dozens of disconnected tools.

Measuring Developer Productivity: Prove Impact | Harness Blog

The best engineering teams rely on data-driven frameworks like DORA metrics and SPACE to measure developer productivity and demonstrate business impact. This guide explores proven measurement approaches that move beyond vanity metrics to capture real engineering value and team performance. Your developer productivity initiative didn't collapse because the data was wrong. It stalled because it couldn't answer the business question. Leadership asked, "So what?".

Regression Testing: What it is, why it matters, and how to automate it with CI/CD

Regression testing is the practice of re-running existing tests after a code change to confirm that previously working functionality hasn’t broken. It answers a single question: did this change break something that used to work? In CI/CD pipelines, regression tests run automatically on every commit, giving teams immediate feedback before code reaches production.

Preventing SLA Breaches With Proactive Monitoring as MSPs Move Toward Autonomous IT

AI-first hybrid observability with proactive monitoring helps MSPs protect SLAs as they move toward autonomous IT by getting engineers the right alerts before issues impact service. Managed services lives and dies on timing. The difference between a minor issue and a customer-facing incident often comes down to how early an engineer gets the right signal and how quickly they can act on it. That timing shows up in SLAs, service credits, escalations, and the trust you earn when customers feel taken care of.
