Password 1.0 was your cat’s name and your birth year and you used it across every endpoint for a decade. We see you, Sprinkles1979. Password 2.0 was SSO and MFA and WTF because literally everyone used Facebook for authentication. We all saw how well that went. It’s time for Password 3.0 We’ve always operated at the leading edge of innovation, and this is no exception. While the industry gets bogged down in sending texts to confirm authorization, we’re moving forward.
IT professionals are now adapting to remote environments and learning to manage a distributed, homebound workforce. In recent conversations with IT pros, many have cited that connectivity/VPN and home network issues are their top challenges but they lack the visibility to diagnose and troubleshoot these problems. Catchpoint for employee experience monitoring gives IT teams what they need: visibility from remote users’ devices to any business-critical application across any network.
Here at Lumigo, we are focused on helping customers succeed with serverless and make it easier for them to build and run serverless applications in production. We love serverless and operate one of the largest serverless systems out there as we ingest and process billions of events from our customers. One thing many customers have asked us for help with is to identify misconfigured resources or places where they can improve by following best practices.
A year ago, we wrote about our experiences as early adopters of Graviton2, and how we were able to see 30% price-performance improvements on one dogfood workload from switching to the arm64 architecture. In those initial experiments, we validated running 20% fewer shepherd ingest workers, using the m6g instance type, which cost 10% less per instance compared to c5 instances.
Does your Elastic Enterprise Search Cloud deployment follow a predictable usage pattern? You can automatically scale up and down your deployment on a schedule to achieve optimal performance and reduce operating costs. In this article we show you how to use the Elastic Cloud API to change how many Enterprise Search nodes you’re running. We call these APIs from a cron job to achieve hands-free, time-triggered autoscaling.
With Elastic 7.12, Discover now uses the fields API by default. Reading from _source is still supported through a switch in the Advanced Settings. This change stems from updates made to Elasticsearch in 7.11 with the extension of the Search API to include the new fields parameter. When using the new search parameter, both a document’s raw source and the index mappings to load and return values are used.
2020 was a difficult year for all of us, and it was no different for engineering teams. Many software releases were postponed, and the industry slowed its development speed quite a bit. But at least at AWS, some teams released updates out of the door at the end of the year. AWS Lambda received two significant improvements: With these two new features and Lambda Layers, we now have three ways to add code to Lambda that isn’t directly part of our Lambda function.
In our latest tools guide, we wanted to gather insights from a number of real users of these two giants in the Git & version control space to help you decide between using Github or Gitlab for your latest software development project. “GitHub is a common and easy-to-use website to host code in a way that's shareable with a large number of people”, states Melanie, Content Director at KitelyTech.
