Data generation today is at an unprecedented level, and we are generating an inexhaustible amount of data. As a matter of fact, more data has been created over the past two years than ever before in the history of mankind. This throws a big complexity in front of us. How do we even manage such a huge amount of data? Where do we store them? Can they be segregated to fit into our needs, who would do that for us, and so on! The questions are endless, and so is the rate of generation of new data.

Do you want to confidently move workloads to the cloud without dropping or losing data? Of course, everyone does. But easier said than done. Cloud migration is tricky. There’s so much to think through and so much to worry about — how can you reconfigure architectures and data flows to ensure parity and visibility? How do you know the data in transit is safe and secure? How can you get your job done without getting in trouble with procurement?

This guide explores the benefits of embedded caching for ISPs and discusses deployment optimization strategies and future trends in CDN technology. Embedded CDNs help reduce network congestion, save costs, and improve user experiences. ISPs must carefully plan their deployment strategies by considering how each of the CDNs distributes content and directs end-users to the caches. They need to know both the CDNs and their network architecture in detail to build a successful solution.

Cloud cost optimization is a topic that comes up frequently in client interactions. Read on to learn how to cut your infrastructure costs with Aiven.

For the third time, we initiated the Icinga Feedback Week. Why? Because your opinion matters to us, a lot.

Blob storage is a cloud-based service offered by various cloud providers, designed to store vast amounts of unstructured data such as images, videos, documents, and other types of files. It is highly scalable, cost-effective, and durable, making it an ideal choice for organizations that need to store and manage large data sets for applications like websites, mobile apps, and data analytics.

Today, GitHub announced the public beta of Deployment Protection Rules for GitHub Actions for GitHub Enterprise users. In support of that launch, we’ve partnered with GitHub to create the Honeycomb Deployment Protection Rule (available as a GitHub App). This rule lets you run Honeycomb queries so that you can get real-time performance feedback from your services before deciding whether to prevent deployment of your code to a specific environment.

Our status page product started last year as an experiment. We built a status page product in a hurry over weekends, and to our surprise, it gained a lot of traction.

The new revemped dashboard is part of a larger plan for our status page product. Here's a quick gist of the multiple releases.
