With data being the cornerstone of organizational growth, your data management strategy is integral to your business's success. Data is valued as much as human capital in today's business world: both are key factors contributing to the overall productivity of a company's strategy. Companies have to take simple steps to collect, manage, and analyze various data to run their operations successfully and efficiently.

OpenTelemetry (also abbreviated as OTEL) is an increasingly popular open-source observability platform under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), which is currently the most active project in the CNCF after Kubernetes. It was created to establish a unified and vendor-agnostic way for instrumenting, collecting, and exporting telemetry data for your system and application across traces, logs, and metrics.

Drawing synergy from ManageEngine, Zoho Corporation's business IT division, Site24x7 grew steadily to cover all geographies and sectors. We extended observability to cover the entire gamut of the rapidly changing IT infrastructure landscape. Today, Site24x7 is an AI-powered, comprehensive IT monitoring solution with a keen eye on privacy and security.

Welcome to the forefront of virtualization technology, where innovation meets practicality, and the quest for optimal performance is a constant journey. If you’ve been keeping a close eye on developments in this space, you’ll know that Microsoft’s Hyper-V has been making significant strides.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and IT Process Automation (ITPA) are today’s big drivers of revolutionizing the way businesses operate – and they’re nowhere near finished. While RPA and ITPA have their significant differences, they share just enough similarities to have successfully helped organizations in multiple industries automate processes, reduce costs, improve accuracy, and deliver better customer experiences.

In today's dynamic banking environment, effective management of technology risk is paramount. The rapid adoption of new digital tools and solutions is exposing banks to a battery of technology threats that can bring down their operations. These growing risks range from cyberattacks and fraud to internal software failures and system misconfigurations—and they have CEOs on alert.

While developing the "new" canonical check feature for elmah.io Uptime Monitoring, I had to parse a website from C# and inspect the DOM. I have been using Html Agility Pack in the past so this was an obvious choice. I also looked at what happened in the space and found that AngleSharp is an excellent alternative. In this blog post, I'll showcase both frameworks to help you get started.

Organizations implementing observability in their digital services architecture should be familiar with OpenTelemetry (OTEL) framework. While our OTEL guide provides an in-depth examination of the benefits of this open-source framework, the potential security challenges with OpenTelemetry warrant a separate guide.

The latest Aiven for Apache Flink service comes with integration for multiple versions of Apache Kafka® and a CDC connector for PostgreSQL®.

Testing is still the most arduous, painful, and expensive task within a DevOps practice, regardless of framework or approach. Why? Because the current approaches to testing and development are not focused on production. Production-Driven Development (PDD), allows for rapid iteration without sacrificing stability or confidence. Following PDD, a small team or single developer can launch an application in weeks that used to take multiple teams months or a year.
