We’re proud to announce that we have received ISO 27001 certification. This certification is another significant milestone for Mezmo this year.

People often ask us, “What is the best query language to use with InfluxDB?” The answer to this question has evolved a bit over the years – and the current answer might surprise you.

Profiling is an important tool in every developer’s toolkit because it provides a granular view into the execution of your program from your production environment. This is an important concept, as performance bottlenecks can often be very hard or even impossible to reproduce locally due to external constraints or loads only seen in a production environment.

Here at Cribl, we’re big on GoatFooding. We not only prepare but consume our own products, in our own products. Today we’ll pull back the curtains to shine a light on how we use Cribl products within our Cribl.Cloud service. Cribl is a pioneer in the observability space, so what better way to use our products than by observing Cribl.Cloud?

We talk to a lot of the top research firms about our business and the evolving space of observability so we are honored to be awarded the Fall 2022 Intellyx Digital Innovator Award. Intellyx focuses on enterprise digital transformation and the leading edge innovators helping to drive change in the enterprise IT marketplace. They give this award to vendors who make it through its rigorous selection process and deliver a successful briefing. The award is not based on being a client.

Automation is a smart investment in efficiency, productivity, and profitability. According to VentureBeat, companies that invested in automation technologies began to see results almost immediately, including an average 7% increase in revenues. In total, U.S. companies that adopted automation in 2021 generated an extra $195 billion in revenue per month, adding 7.1 million jobs to the economy.

A well-designed cloud architecture is essential to ensure that the underlying infrastructure stays operational, within budget, and compliant over time. These days, organizations are rapidly spreading their infrastructure across a broad, complex mesh of interconnected resources and services. It can be difficult to make high-level decisions about the design and management of these systems. This is why many organizations are now turning to cloud infrastructure modeling tools.

How can you judge Grafana vs. Chronograf and InfluxDB? Monitoring various systems is a crucial component of continuous maintenance. You can look at different parameters of the monitored system and take corresponding actions for certain conditions. For example, engineers can prevent server failure when they see the load on the server approaching its critical point. If the numbers of processed transactions (or registered users) exceed the expected level, you can celebrate your success.
