Extending InfluxDB with Serverless Functions

Data ingestion and data analysis are the yin and yang of a time series platform. There are many resources to help you ingest data. Typical ingestions are agent-based, imports via CSVs, using client libraries, or via third-party technologies. Once your time series data arrives, analysis completes the circle and often leads to additional data collection, and so on and so forth.

Securing Azure Active Directory from PowerShell abuse

Malware attacks are evolving and once common tactics are becoming a thing of the past. Attack strategies, like using a third-party hacking program or injecting viruses from external sources, are almost obsolete as they leave a distinct footprint.

Diagnose slow page requests with the latest addition to RUM

Earlier in the year, we launched the request details page in Raygun Real User Monitoring. This update brought the instance-level insights into page performance to help you understand exactly what caused poor performance and how to improve it. To complement instance-level insights, this latest launch brings the Latest slowest requests module to Real User Monitoring. Now, when viewing performance data for a specific URI, you can easily jump into the instance-level diagnostics for a specific slow request.

Complement your network monitoring with SNMP traps

Network device monitoring with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) gives you complete visibility into the health and availability of your network devices. Monitoring tools conduct periodic checks to gather device status and performance metrics. The device's status is updated only when a check is initiated by the monitoring system in the defined time interval. Any fault that happens in between polls is only captured when the next check is initiated.

The Post-Cloud Evolution: Europe Moves to the Edge

Current cloud investments have been a boost for flexibility and productivity. The challenge is that there is a single point of failure with these platforms, requiring diversity of providers to reduce dependencies. The future of cloud computing will see effects from the ambitions and expansion of cloud providers themselves, as well as potential competition. This is especially true with Amazon, Google, and to a lesser extent Microsoft.
