While JavaScript frameworks come and go, a change has been brewing over the last several years that will permanently change what it means to be a modern developer: how our code goes from our laptops to the wild.

And just like that – welcome to the last part in our “Well-Architected and Serverless” series. We hope it’s been informative, insightful, and fun for you, to explore the five pillars of the AWS Well-Architected Framework (WAF) with us! Read the previous posts: Part 1: Security Pillar Part 2: Operational Excellence Pillar Part 3: Reliability Pillar Part 4: Cost Optimization Pillar So let’s look into the last – Performance Efficiency (PERF) – pillar.

Distributed tracing allows you to track the execution of your user's transactions by following them between applications’ microservices. It provides easy to understand visualizations of transactional lifespan with the ability to pinpoint any slowdowns and errors in response to microservices. During my presentation at Illuminate, I shared that we extended the Sumo Logic platform to cover application performance use cases.

As a company’s IT systems develop and overlap in function, it becomes increasingly important that they be carefully monitored at all times. Active network monitoring helps to ensure central servers and systems are functioning as intended, while also allowing business management staff to keep an eye on employee activity in the process.

Inspecting complicated network issues shouldn’t require you to switch between multiple tabs and network records. Solving these issues often boils down to finding the IP addresses of a network entity. Be it a desktop, server, port, or some other entity, its IP address gives you much-needed insight into details like its asset tag, interface specifics, user, and device type. This information helps you get to the bottom of network issues, aiding in effective troubleshooting.

Integrations bring your favorite tools together, making them more useful, easier to incorporate into your existing operations, saves time, and prevents confusion. That’s why Uptrends continues to add more Integrations to your alerting options.

To enhance and automate your vulnerability analysis, we’re excited to launch the Datadog Vulnerability Analysis GitHub Action. The action enables easy integration between your application, Datadog Continuous Profiler, and Snyk’s vulnerability database to provide actionable security heuristics. The action can be installed directly from the GitHub Marketplace, and does not require you to manage any additional scripts or infrastructure.

At Grafana Labs, we believe that our culture is one of the differentiators that make us an extraordinary company. In the middle of a pandemic, we’ve been in the very fortunate position to be in a high-growth phase: We’ve expanded the team by 118% this year, and our headcount just tipped over 250 global Grafanistas.

Opsgenie is a powerful alert management service that allows you to flexibly set up teams for different alerting groups. Our development team have been working hard to deliver new features and integrations, and now you are able to integrate Opsgenie with RapidSpike to help with your website monitoring.

IT Infrastructure Monitoring has evolved beyond imagination over the last decade and continues to, courtesy of new technology. It’s not focused on IT elements anymore, as Infrastructure & Operations (I&O) is becoming more business-centric. That also gives rise to challenges for IT leaders who need to adapt at a quick pace. It’s not news that infrastructure monitoring is extremely important for the health of any enterprise.
