Now that we have discussed the networking part , the next step is placing the application into a host. Robin.io’s cloud platform has the concept of master, compute, and storage nodes. Typically, the hardware servers would have multiple NUMA nodes. In order to achieve the best performance, the platform should utilize the resources from the same NUMA node. Failing this – if users are consuming a resource from another NUMA node – then their performance would degrade.
Asset auditing is usually a long procedure especially when an organization has lots of assets. It becomes more hectic when you know some assets such as vehicles are in different locations and some vehicles are out making deliveries to clients. That is why it is important to plan asset audits in a way so that you have assets available at the time of audit. However, it is not simple as it seems that is why auditing is a complicated procedure!
For DevOps teams looking for insights on how to improve, it’s invaluable to leverage the learnings of others. At the same time, given the wide range of DevOps teams’ expertise, tenure, and organizational dynamics, it’s also clear that one size does not fit all. That’s why efforts like this year’s “Accelerate State of DevOps Report” are so important. We’re proud to be a sponsor of this 2022 edition.
Businesses and communities are experiencing a growing number of disruptions from threats like severe weather, civil unrest, theft and vandalism, pandemics, and cyber-attacks. These disruptions have left many organisations concerned about the safety of their people and operations.
Like most tech companies, we use an on-call rota and various alerting tools. We do this to respond to incidents before they’re reported. Proactively identifying issues and communicating to customers helps us provide great experiences and fosters trust. Internally, we’ve been using these alerting tools in tandem with our auto-create incidents feature. We’ve found that it’s made responding to the pager much smoother - it’s one less thing to do when you get paged at 2am.
More than 16 months ago we provided a solution to integrate HashiCorp Consul with our alerting and on-call management platform by using consul-alerts - a dedicated application that allows for communication between a deployed Consul instance and an existing iLert account. With more code infrastructure being moved to the cloud to ensure better security and availability, we too have ensured that our service integrates with the HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP).
