We are pleased to announce our newly launched dashboard design which we have created to assist cross team collaboration for users that prefer to use multiple Stacks per account. We understand that Cybersecurity specialists, Sysadmins, Product owners, developers and CTOs may all have different requirements for using our platform for logs and metrics analysis.
Developers of any skill set find it frustrating when we don’t have access to the information we need. We want easy and complete access to application logs so that we can troubleshoot application problems. Quickly resolving issues requires a complete picture of what’s going on. Using the wrong tools limits our ability to determine what’s wrong, slowing the repair process.
Generating and collecting logs is one thing. Generating and collecting actionable logs can be quite another. That's a problem because logs that are not actionable – meaning they can be easily used to derive valuable insights or resolve issues – are not very valuable. If you don't generate actionable logs, you might as well not log at all. Fortunately, ensuring that you generate useful logs is not tricky. Keep reading for seven tips on making your logs actionable and valuable.
Developers must have access to the information that they need. Accessing this information, however, can be time-consuming. With the wrong tools or workflow, it’s frustrating and challenging to filter logs by source. Tags are an easy solution from LogDNA that helps developers get a more granular view of what’s going on in our services.
Modern software development teams use CI/CD tools to ship features quickly and rely on best practices like shift-left testing to find application errors before they become user-facing bugs. But you still face the risk that any code you deploy could contain errors that your testing did not surface. To help you deploy with confidence and mitigate the effects of a bad deployment, Datadog APM now provides Automatic Faulty Deployment Detection.
Almost all tasks within a Linux system, whether it’s an application, system daemon, or certain types of user activity, are executed by one or more processes . This means that monitoring processes is key to detecting potentially malicious activity in your systems, such as the creation of unexpected web shells or other utilities.
Many organizations are moving from monolithic to microservices-based architectures. Microservices allow them to improve their agility and provide features more quickly. Although developing a single microservice is simpler, the complexity of the overall system is much greater. Here, we’ll review how to add distributed tracing to C++ with the OpenTelemetry collector and send to Logz.io. One of the biggest challenges is finding efficient tools to quickly debug and solve production problems.
Cloud native API Testing comes with a lot of challenges. In this video see how to overcome these challenges with the novel approach of traffic replay.
