Migrating Workloads and Performance Issues in Public Cloud

When on-premises capacity runs short, public cloud tends to be the first option infrastructure teams reach for. It is quick to provision, removes the hardware procurement problem, and sidesteps the question of what to do with an ageing estate. What it does not settle is whether migrated workloads will perform as the business requires once they are live in production, or whether the recovery design has kept pace with where services now sit.

Multi-Datacenter Active ActiveMQ Deployment: Network of Brokers & AMQP

A single-datacenter ActiveMQ deployment, even with full HA, has a fundamental limitation: all message processing is bound to one physical location.

The secure path should be the default path - nothing more

Asking developers to take extra steps to pull securely is a policy that won't hold. The only approach that scales is making the private registry the default – a buffer between the developer and public registries that applies policy automatically at the global level. No extra steps, no security theater, no cognitive overhead at the point of pull. Automation and global policy configuration are what turn good intentions into a default secure posture.

How To Build An MSP Team That Truly Relies On Data-Driven Decision-Making

Managed Service Providers (MSPs) aren’t short on data. Most of them have dashboards, KPIs, and utilization reports running across multiple screens. But having data and using it to make better decisions are two different things, and the gap between them is wider than you might think, with one study finding that only 32% of companies effectively use data to drive business value. For the other 68%, the numbers exist, they just… don’t do much.
