The latest News and Information on Log Management, Log Analytics and related technologies.
Today we’re happy to announce our new open source, scalable logging solution, VictoriaLogs, which helps users and enterprises expand their current monitoring of applications into a more strategic ‘state of all systems’ enterprise-wide observability. Many existing logging solutions on the market today offer IT professionals a limited window into live operations of databases and clusters.
Over the last decade, log management has been largely dominated by the ELK Stack – a once-open source tool set that collects, processes, stores and analyzes log data. The ‘k’ in the ELK Stack represents Kibana, which is the component engineers use to query and visualize their log data stored in Elasticsearch. Sadly, in January 2021, Elastic decided to close source the ELK Stack, and as a result, OpenSearch was launched by AWS as an open source replacement.
Easy to implement, effective data management tools that provide fast time to value are the exception rather than the rule, and top-notch support for those tools is also hard to come by. That’s why Cribl prioritizes creating products that make the lives of engineers and systems admins as easy as possible. The reviews on Gartner Peer Insights give us a glimpse into how well we’re holding up our end of the bargain.
AWS Fargate is a serverless pay-as-you-go engine used for Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) to run Docker containers without having to manage servers or clusters. The goal of Fargate is to containerize your application and specify the OS, CPU and memory, networking, and IAM policies needed for launch. Additionally, AWS Fargate can be used with Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) in a similar manner.
