FreeRTOS 11 introduced symmetric multi-processing (SMP) support in the mainline kernel, meaning a single FreeRTOS kernel is managing multiple processor cores. This allows for high performance but also makes the runtime system more complex, meaning higher risk of issues and more difficult debugging. System tracing with Percepio Tracealyzer can offer an effective remedy by providing insight into the system execution.

We’ve been talking about observability 2.0 a lot lately; what it means for telemetry and instrumentation, its practices and sociotechnical implications, and the dramatically different shape of its cost model. With all of these details swimming about, I’m afraid we’re already starting to lose sight of what matters.

You may have encountered a situation where you must do some backend job without user intervention. For example, in an IOT application, your application needs to receive frequently published data from devices or send scheduler values to devices. .NET provides background job libraries for such tasks. I will discuss one of the background libraries, Quartz.NET, with a coding example. I will break down Quartz for you with simple, practical examples.

Synthetic website monitoring (also known as synthetic testing) involves simulating the actions that visitors perform on a website and the journeys they take, in order to evaluate performance and proactively spot any issues or problems. For example, synthetic testing can help answer critical questions like: However, not all synthetic testing solutions or strategies are equal.
