The latest News and Information on Log Management, Log Analytics and related technologies.
OpenTelemetry is more than just becoming the open ingestion standard for observability. As one of the major Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) projects, with as many commits as Kubernetes, it is gaining support from major ISVs and cloud providers delivering support for the framework. Many global companies from finance, insurance, tech, and other industries are starting to standardize on OpenTelemetry.
Node.js logging is an important part of supporting the complete application life cycle. From creation to debugging to planning new features, logs support us all the way. By analyzing the data in the logs, we can glean insights, resolve bugs much quicker, and detect problems early and as they happen. In this post, we will talk about the who, what, when, where, how, and why of Node.js logging. Later in this post, the “how” section will give insights into using code.
Observability dashboards are powerful tools that enable teams to visualize and monitor the performance, health, and behavior of their applications and infrastructure. However, building observability dashboards is not a straightforward task, and many organizations make common mistakes hindering their ability to gain meaningful insights and respond to issues effectively.
The rapid software development process that exists today requires an expanding and complex infrastructure and application components, and the job of operations and development teams is ever growing and multifaceted. Observability, which helps manage and analyze telemetry data, is the key to ensuring the performance and reliability of your applications and infrastructure.
In recent years, microservices have emerged as a popular architectural pattern. Although these self-contained services offer greater flexibility, scalability, and maintainability compared to monolithic applications, they can be difficult to manage without dedicated tools. Kubernetes, a scalable platform for orchestrating containerized applications, can help navigate your microservices.
If you’re thinking of running OpenSearch on Kubernetes, you have to check out the OpenSearch Kubernetes Operator. It’s by far the easiest way to get going, you can configure pretty much everything and it has nice functionality, such as rolling upgrades and draining nodes before shutting them down. Let’s get going 🙂
