Network downtime can have a significant impact on business operations, leading to lost revenue and diminished customer trust. As a result, network availability monitoring has become increasingly crucial for businesses of all sizes. However, when it comes to monitoring network availability, it is essential to understand the differences between client expectations and service level agreements (SLAs).

Check our February 2023 health report on the top most popular cloud providers. We analyze the health of the cloud providers based on the number of outages and problems during the month. The source of the data is made available by the cloud providers themselves via their status page. We normalize it and use it to generate the report.

There is something unique about how Sumo Logic CTO, Christian Beedgen, presents at events. At Illuminate, he expanded upon ideas he shared at SLOconf, turning reliability management into a logical and fundamentally humane solution. I may not be as entertaining as Christian when he presents, but if you want the summary without the jokes or details, this blog is for you.

You'll notice that monitoring and logging don't appear on the list of core Kubernetes features. However, this is not due to the fact that Kubernetes does not offer any sort of logging or monitoring functionality at all. It does, but it’s complicated.

Debugging errors in your software often requires browsing stack traces (also called as backtraces or tracebacks). A stack trace is a sequence of stack frames which represents the chain of methods calling each other in your software. Rollbar collects your stack trace at the time a crash occurs – this way you will be able to know which pieces of code were active when an issue happened. You can find how to read stack traces in our previous blog post.
