In recent years, it has often been said that the network is a “utility” much like heat or hot water. It’s a necessity to the needs of daily life for much of the world’s population. In fact, the United Nations has called for universal internet access to be accepted as a basic human right by 2030. But as the network becomes more ubiquitous, there’s risk of it being taken for granted. Organizations that do this, however, will be putting themselves at a disadvantage.

Mezmo Edge enables users to deploy telemetry pipelines and process data in their own environment. A significant advancement in Mezmo’s capabilities, Edge is especially useful when working with sensitive medical or financial records. Organizations that need to comply with PCI, GDPR, or CCPA or that generally work with PII will benefit from Edge’s secure approach to data protection. Edge also provides the telemetry data optimization benefits of a pipeline without cloud data egress charges.

Monitoring CPU temperature is crucial for ensuring the smooth and efficient functioning of computer systems. As processors become more powerful, they generate more heat, which can lead to performance issues, system instability, and even hardware damage. Overheating is a common problem faced by many computer users, especially those who engage in resource-intensive tasks like gaming or running complex software.

With the smart home revolution in full swing, choosing the proper hardware for platforms like Home Assistant can be overwhelming. Whether you’re new to home automation or a seasoned pro, the hardware you select can make or break your experience. But fear not! This comprehensive guide will demystify the requirements, delve into the various options, and help you make an informed decision. From the compact Raspberry Pi to the powerful Intel NUC, we’ve got you covered.

Efficient monitoring and visualization of performance metrics are paramount for ensuring seamless user experiences and reliable system operations. Grafana and Graphite, two powerful open-source tools, form an unbeatable combination when it comes to monitoring and analyzing time-series data. Grafana provides a robust and flexible platform for visualizing data, while Graphite acts as a scalable and efficient backend for storing and retrieving metric data.

Who is software for? It’s an interesting question, because there’s an obvious answer. It’s for the users, right? If your job is to write software, then it’s implied that the most important thing you should care about is the experience people have when they use your software.

We release VictoriaMetrics several times a month, including at least one major update. However, because these new releases often introduce new features, they may be less stable. That’s why we also regularly publish Long-term support releases (LTS) alongside our regular releases. These LTS versions focus exclusively on bug fixes without new features and performance improvements. We committed to publishing LTS versions every six months and supporting them for one year.
