We’ve been talking about it for more than a year now, but the last few months have only affirmed the fact: hybrid work is here to stay. The myriad research that’s been conducted so far proves that not only do employees want the flexibility of hybrid work, but also that hybrid work has a huge potential to drive better business results.

We’re thrilled to announce the release of a new update to the Cloud Logging Library for Node.js with the key new features of improved error handling and writing structured logging to standard output which becomes handy if you run applications in serverless environments like Google Functions!

While network and application performance grow increasingly business critical, IT’s ability to track and control service levels continues to be diminished. The shift to hybrid and remote work means users are now highly reliant upon public internet connections, which require additional security at the network edge. Plus, the majority of apps, internal or external, are now cloud hosted.

AppNeta by Broadcom Software is a SaaS platform that enables large enterprises to gain visibility into their business-critical applications as experienced from remote offices and to understand how the networks that drive them operate. Because of our network focus we often get compared to traditional monitoring solutions, but with a quick overview it should be easy to explain to others in your organization how we differentiate.

IT silos, which originated from operational processes that made sense in an on-premise world are still a fact today. It’s easy to understand how these silos, which segregate and isolate IT data and operations from other points in the infrastructure came about.

Today, we are thrilled to share that the macOS integration has finally arrived for Grafana Cloud! Thanks to the joint efforts of Grafana Labs’ multiple teams, you can monitor your Mac and gather and visualize metrics and logs with ease. The integration is available in Grafana Cloud, our platform that brings together all your metrics, logs, and traces with Grafana for full-stack observability.

Network monitoring is vital for operating an IT environment at optimal performance. As a result, organizations can improve operational efficiencies with a well-managed network while proactively maintaining a secure network. While remote work has made the network monitoring process more challenging, new cloud-based tools have extended IT teams' reach into home and remote offices to ensure employees are secure and productive.
