OpenTofu support comes to JFrog Artifactory
If you deploy container-based services in Kubernetes, chances are you’re also using infrastructure-as-code to help automate the provisioning and maintenance of the cloud environments where your applications will run. Up until recently, Terraform was “the name” in infrastructure-as-code.
Avoid Observability Failure
The public Internet is now a core component of every company’s digital architecture. Given its nature as a shared resource, the Internet is also the biggest variable in digital experience today. Therefore, application performance management solutions, which typically monitor application transactions and the cloud infrastructure that applications reside upon, can only offer IT operations teams a partial view of the overall health and performance of digital services. IT organizations must modernize their observability toolsets with Internet Performance Monitoring solutions.

Unlock the Potential of Digital Government: How Agencies Can Improve Citizen Access to Digital Services
Government agencies are embracing digital modernization to transform the delivery of public services and reimagine the constituent experience. Recent research shows that citizens have a clear preference for engaging with government through websites and mobile applications over in-person or telephone interactions, just as the experience in their everyday life as commercial consumers – creating a win-win for governments and constituents.
What are the differences between artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning and generative AI?
While deep learning, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) may seem to be used synonymously, there are clear differences. One school of thought is that artificial intelligence is a larger umbrella category under which machine learning falls and deep learning falls under machine learning. Therefore, while everything that is categorized as deep learning or machine learning is part of the artificial intelligence field, not everything that is machine learning will be deep learning.

Finding the answers is a time-consuming and manual process. You first have to identify similar incidents, then review historical data for insights and details on how previous teams resolved them. There’s no time to waste when SLAs are at stake. Yet that’s how many operators spend their time.
