Monitoring Software-Defined, Cloud, and ISP Networks

For decades, the data center has been the core hub for applications, routing, firewalls, processing, and more. Now, the enterprise is highly reliant upon distributed workplaces, cloud-based resources, and third-party-operated networks. In this context, modern networks encompass more diverse infrastructures, requiring IT organizations to contend with the added demands of managing and maintaining these expanding environments.

What do quality engineers do?

Quality engineering (QE), or software quality engineering (SQE), is a discipline within software development focused on ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of software products. With an increase in development environment complexity in recent years, the focus has shifted back from detecting defects in later stages, as QA has typically done, to proactively ensuring quality throughout the entire development lifecycle.

Receive Cribl Notifications on a Distribution List or Group Email Alias

IT and security teams have several products they use and in turn, have many admins. Some have wide privileges, while others have focused responsibilities for the various tools and touch points in an IT and security data path. Not all admins are members of all tools. But they are all typically part of a larger group bound by an email alias (aka a distribution list).

MSP innovation requires a flexible toolkit

In a recent meeting, long-time N-able partner Wade Weppler of WW Works mentioned that one of his customers requires high availability for a business-critical application. “High availability,” in this case, meaning two fully replicated servers set up for nearly instant failover. Weppler solved this using Hyper-V’s native replication. “There’s no extra cost, other than the second server, but Hyper-V replication is complex to set up and manage,” he said.
