A guide to implementing effective cloud vulnerability scanning

With the increasing use of cloud computing, securing our cloud systems from potential threats and vulnerabilities has become extremely critical. Data breaches are becoming increasingly common, and they occur because of software bugs, configuration errors, or poor access control management. Due to the growing size of cloud environments, it is becoming almost impossible for humans to oversee and manually scan for system threats in detail.

Accurate log analytics – for the greater good of devs

In today's digital world, businesses generate enormous amounts of machine data from logs and events from different parts of the technology stack. This data can provide crucial analytics and insights into applications, infrastructure, and business performance. Businesses require better log analytics to make sense of the data, which can offer faster troubleshooting, proactive monitoring, and insightful data analysis and reporting.

Nine essential practices for your DevOps

Between 2007 and 08, the IT industry figured out the dysfunction between the Dev and the Ops teams. Everyone realized the cost of it and the potential of the idea of combining Dev & Ops. This is how DevOps started. I know I have told this story before. A Harvard Business Review study shows that 86% of the 654 respondents saw the importance of quickly developing and releasing new software into production.

Integrating Storybook with Zeplin for React components

With the increasing complexity in the front-end arena, from being bound to make UIs responsive and browsers compatible to ease the performance, accessibility, and async states, it is often a hassle to manage it all. In these situations, frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue come to the rescue, helping break down UIs into simple components and improving the situation for developers.

A comprehensive guide to application modernization

Today, efficient software is indispensable to running regular business operations. Legacy applications are outdated systems that can hinder business operations by running on obsolete technology. They can cause inefficiencies and slow progress, leading to underperformance and potential extinction if the organization cannot keep up with competitors.

How to conduct canary deployment using HAProxy

A canary deployment is a deployment strategy that is used to release applications and services to a subset of users incrementally. All the infrastructure in a target environment is updated in small phases (e.g., 5%, 30%, 75%, and 100%). Due to this control, a canary release carries the lowest risk compared to all other deployment strategies. The deployments allow organizations to make staged releases and test applications with real users & use cases, collect feedback, and compare different service versions.

The future of observability – 2023 and beyond

In my previous blog on what is observability and why the buzz, I spoke about its three pillars (logs, metrics, and traces) and highlighted its past & present, along with its benefits. Gartner ranked observability among the top 10 strategic tech trends for 2023. So, it is crucial to understand – what's next for observability.

Steps to set up a time series database (TSDB) cluster on Kubernetes

While DRPs are essential for any system, they're especially critical for time series databases (TSDBs). Unlike traditional databases, TSDBs deal with continuous data streams, making data loss impactful. High data volume, real-time analysis reliance, and historical trend preservation all emphasize the need for robust disaster recovery.
