Artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI – they may sound similar, but how do they differ? Although these terms are often used interchangeably, generative AI is actually a subtype of AI. At ScienceLogic, we use many different types of AI, from machine learning to generative AI, to analyze IT environments, provide insights to help IT pros take action, automate and streamline workflows, and drive innovation.

In a previously released YouTube video, I explained how and why Playwright fixtures perfectly match with page object models. Combining the two allows you to hide setup instructions and keep your tests clean. Page object models no longer have to be initialized in every test case. To be upfront — I'm a fixture fanboy! But what if you need to pass additional configuration to your page object models? When options are hidden in a fixture, you can't configure how a class is initialized, right? Wrong!

Testing AWS services is an essential step in creating robust cloud applications. However, directly interacting with AWS during testing can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. The AWS SDK Mock is a JavaScript library designed to simplify this process by allowing developers to mock AWS SDK methods, making it easier to simulate AWS service interactions in a controlled environment. Primarily used with AWS SDK v2, AWS SDK Mock integrates with Sinon.js to mock AWS services like S3, SNS, and DynamoDB.

Innovation in automation is transforming what’s possible in operational dynamics at an unprecedented pace. For modern enterprises, this shift is not just a technological evolution; it’s a strategic imperative. C-suite executives and boardrooms increasingly recognize the potential of technologies like GenAI as powerful tools for enhancing productivity, reducing risk, and optimizing costs.

Prometheus has emerged as the de facto standard for monitoring in cloud-native environments based on several key factors. Prometheus offers a highly scalable time-series database, capable of handling millions of metrics and a pull-based architecture that simplifies network configuration and enhances security. In this blog post, we’ll explore the four primary Prometheus metric types: counter, gauge, histogram, and summary.

Kubernetes has transformed how developers build, test, and deploy applications, providing a consistent platform for managing containerized workloads. Setting up efficient Kubernetes clusters is crucial for streamlining the development process, reducing time-to-market, and ensuring that applications run reliably from development to production.
