At Monitorama 2018, I shared some of the cool process and knowledge I’ve learned from developing a product for people other than myself to consume. After spending six years on call, I now build software that wakes people up in the night — AKA, infrastructure and tooling for systems monitoring and performance analysis. As someone who’s been there, I’m conscientious about building quality software that people delight in using.

We live a busy life and as a result, we all forget to get some tasks done on time. The fact is that some things should not be delayed and a good example of this renewing your SSL / TLS certificates. What an SSL certificate does is to allow a person, a computer or an organization to exchange information in a secure way.

I am very excited to announce that we closed our $68.5M Series D financing round last month, bringing our total funding to $121.5M. We look forward to partnering with our new investors, Insight Venture Partners, who led this round alongside existing investors, Bain Capital Ventures, and Accel. Our mission is to enable enterprises to run reliable and secure containers and microservices.

At Google, we believe strongly in an open cloud. We’re continually working to bring you tools for understanding how your applications are performing, whether they run in different projects, organizations, clouds, or even on prem. Monitoring tools like Stackdriver Kubernetes Monitoring, OpenCensus, and Stackdriver APM are designed to help you get visibility into your workloads wherever they run—on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), on-premises or on another cloud platform.

You have no doubt heard about Application Performance Management (APM) and how internal IT teams are using APM to stay relevant in the face of competition brought about by shadow IT. So, let us take a look at three business benefits which APM will deliver to your organisation.

Hi! My name is Mattias Geniar and together with my partner Freek Van der Herten we founded Oh Dear!, a new tool focused on monitoring websites. We both got fed up with existing tools that didn't fit our needs precisely. Most came close, but there was always something — whether settings or design choices — that we just didn't like. Being engineers, the obvious next step was to just build it ourselves!

I am very excited to share our brand new Sysdig documentation website. Our documentation team has been working very hard for the past few months. They have rewritten the majority of our product and support content and introduced an intuitive navigation structure to help you quickly find what you need. Sysdig Docs are now organized into Platform, Monitor and Secure sections.
