Dan Toomey, Senior Integration Architect at Deloitte Australia, kicked off the session by highlighting the essential role of business rules in software development. He emphasized the significance of managing evolving and complex business rules, advocating for the use of effective tools like Business Rules Management Systems (BRMS) to safeguard code and services.

When deploying Docker containers to AWS ECS, you can encounter a situation where you want to run an image that requires some configuration. For example, let's say you wanted to run Vector1 as a sidecar to your main application so you can ship your application's metrics to a service like Honeybadger Insights. To run Vector, you only need to provide one configuration file (/etc/vector/vector.yaml) to the image available on Docker Hub.

As organizations scale, technology adoption also increases across industries to meet major performance and security requirements. This raises the need to support different networks and growing volumes of traffic and manage the bandwidth so that every application is accessible around the clock. Enterprises also need to ensure they leave no room for attacks or downtime. But is digitization that easy?

Today, we’re excited to roll out 6 new endpoints for the Raygun API, making it simpler than ever to query Sessions, Pages, and Customers. Raygun’s Real User Monitoring helps you track and enhance your front-end and mobile page speed performance. It analyzes user sessions and page views to calculate your overall page speed. Previously, this required someone to log into Raygun, find the right application, and manually inspect sessions and page views in Real User Monitoring.

Our perception of the cloud is underpinned by three terms: scalable, flexible, and efficient. These adjectives, however, are only the capabilities of the cloud—not the benefits. Turning the cloud’s capabilities into benefits involves understanding the nature of the cloud and optimizing how you use it based on that. From choosing your cloud vendor to rewriting your code for the cloud, our cloud cost efficiency checklist spans a wide spectrum of planning and actions.

Even if you’ve only been a digital business owner for a short time, you likely already understand the importance of metrics like click-through rates, engagement, and follower demographics. What you may not be aware of, however, is how much of an impact proactive website monitoring can have on catalyzing your business growth. Just as your marketing metrics should inform your next campaign, you should rely on website monitoring metrics to prioritize strategic improvements.

Many organizations use incident response setups that enable them to page on-call personnel via calling or sending a message to a phone number. In this guide, you will learn how to configure such a system by using Grafana OnCall. For practical purposes, we’ll pair it with Twilio, though the same basic workflow should be applicable to other platforms. We will start with a basic setup that uses a phone number in Twilio to both call and send SMS messages to a webhook integration in Grafana OnCall.
