Kubernetes has emerged as a cornerstone of modern infrastructure orchestration in the ever-evolving landscape of containerized applications and dynamic workloads. One of the critical challenges Kubernetes addresses is efficient resource management – ensuring that applications receive the right amount of compute resources while preventing resource contention that can degrade performance and stability.
AWS API Gateway is a powerful service that redefines API management. It serves as a gateway for creating, deploying, and managing APIs, enabling businesses to establish seamless connections between different applications and services. With features like authentication, authorization, and traffic control, API Gateway ensures the security and reliability of API interactions.
ClickHouse database has been used as a remote storage server for Jaeger traces for quite some time, thanks to a gRPC storage plugin built by the community. Lately, we have decided to make ClickHouse one of the core storage backends for Jaeger, besides Cassandra and Elasticsearch. The first step for this integration was figuring out an optimal schema design. Also, since ClickHouse is designed for batch inserts, we also needed to consider how to support that in Jaeger.
Organizations today must embrace a modern observability approach to develop user-centric and reliable software. This isn’t just about tools; it’s about processes, mentality, and having developers actively involved throughout the software development lifecycle up to production release. In recent years, the concept of observability has gained prominence in the world of software development and operations.
Tracealyzer. You can’t stay in the wonderful world of debugging and profiling code without hearing the name. If you look at Percepio’s website, it is compared to the oscilloscopes of embedded code. Use it to peek deep inside your code and see what it does. Of course, the code receives an interrupt and checks a CRC before sending the data through SPI, but how does it do it? And how long does it take?
A server, undeniably, is one of the most crucial components in a network. Every critical activity in a hybrid network architecture is somehow related to server operations. Servers don’t just serve as the spine of modern computing operations—they are also pivotal for network communications. From sending emails to accessing databases and hosting applications, a server’s reliability and performance have a direct impact on the organization’s growth.
If you’re a front end developer, there’s a high probability you’ve built (or will build) an image-heavy page. And you’ll need to make it look great by serving high-quality image files. But you’ll also need to prioritize building a high-quality user experience by making sure your Core Web Vitals such as Cumulative Layout Shift and Largest Contentful Paint aren’t negatively affected, which also help with your search engine rankings.
