As the trend toward microservices-based architectures continues to gain momentum, it’s becoming increasingly clear that distributed tracing will be a crucial tool for monitoring and debugging these complex systems in the future. When designing a microservices-based architecture, breaking extensive services into smaller, more manageable components is standard practice. Communication between these components becomes crucial, but finding the root cause can be challenging when issues arise.

Custom metrics is a key component for many companies. Stock available in warehouses, shopping cart status, number of products sold, and operational status for industrial machines are some of the many KPIs that companies need for their own business tracking purposes.

The pressure on today’s development teams is real: innovate, release quickly, and then do it all again, only faster. Is it any surprise that studies are showing 83% of software developers are feeling burnout? We’re here to remind you that it doesn’t have to be this way.

It is an old cliche adage, but there is no better statement than “a picture is worth a thousand words” that explains the effectiveness of visuals to deliver a message. Especially, in the data domain where a raw message often exists in numbers, visualizing graphs and charts is the best way to share information. When it comes to visualizing metrics from Graphite, there is no solution that can beat Grafana.

Exponential smoothing is a time series forecasting method that uses an exponentially weighted average of past observations to predict future values. This method assigns more weight to recent observations and less to older observations, allowing the forecast to adapt to changing trends in the data. The resulting forecast is a smoothed version of the original time series less affected by random fluctuations or noise in the data.
