Airflow is a popular open source platform that enables users to author, schedule, and monitor workflows programmatically. Airflow helps teams run complex pipelines that require task orchestration, dependency management, and efficient scheduling across many different tools. It’s particularly useful for creating data processing pipelines, orchestrating task-based workflows such as machine learning (ML) training, and running cloud services.

Microsoft Outlook.com (which includes hotmail.com, live.com, and outlook.com) is implementing new email authentication procedures in an attempt to improve email security and preserve customer confidence. These modifications, which came into effect on May 5, 2025, are intended especially for high-volume senders, or those who send more than 5,000 emails every day.

If you’ve ever found yourself staring at a dashboard dropdown, wondering, “What metrics am I even sending to my observability tool?”, you’re not alone. For most engineering teams, answering even the most basic telemetry questions is about as hard as catching a Mewtwo. Frustratingly elusive and way more complicated than it should be, like: We built Metrics Explorer to finally answer all of these questions instantly, and in one place.

Amazon RDS simplifies database management, however disk I/O bottlenecks can affect performance, especially as workloads grow. Let's learn how to identify and fix I/O issues using AWS best practices and about Site24x7's monitoring tools for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

The cloud storage market is currently worth an estimated $124.57 billion and is expected to grow to $425.76 billion by 2030, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 24%. As a result, businesses are looking for ways to expand their services and gain a slice of this highly profitable industry by becoming cloud storage resellers. Cloud storage reselling is a means for IT suppliers to create their own cloud platform for customers by partnering with existing cloud providers and reselling their product.

Why should you monitor PowerShell?…. PowerShell is a powerful automation tool, however its capabilities also make it a prime target for exploitation by cyber attackers. Implementing a robust, automated PowerShell monitoring solution is now essential to detect and prevent exploitation attacks before they compromise your systems. PowerShell is a powerful scripting tool that can automate tasks and manage systems, but its flexibility also makes it a target for abuse.

Database performance can make or break your Elixir application. While Ecto provides a powerful toolkit for database interactions, understanding how these operations perform in production is critical. Whether you're dealing with slow queries, connection pool issues, or mysterious N+1 problems, the ability to effectively monitor and optimize your database operations can be the difference between a sluggish application and one that delights your users.

InfluxDB 3 is our latest time series database built for real-time analytics and high-volume data. Its Python Processing Engine lets developers run custom scripts known as plugins to process data, trigger alerts, or integrate with external systems via HTTP web requests. To demonstrate what’s possible, we’ve developed several plugins, all of which are available in the influxdb3_plugins GitHub repository. This public repo is open for anyone to use, modify, and contribute to.

For a while, tracing in Sentry was... fine. You could open up a slow transaction, poke around, find the N+1, and feel like a hero. But if you wanted to answer more complex questions - like why your payment API was getting slower in Europe, or which CDN was silently tanking your image loads - things got harder. We didn't really build it to help with answering broad questions.

In a world where AI and automation are redefining enterprise IT, there’s one harsh truth that often gets overlooked: most automation initiatives fail before they begin. Not because the technology isn’t ready, but because the strategy isn’t. Too often, teams fall into well-worn traps—automation anti-patterns—that stall progress, waste resources, and fail to deliver meaningful impact. Let’s call them what they are: automation mistakes.
