Managing a Dynatrace Platform Subscription (DPS) budget requires balancing your organization’s usage of Dynatrace capabilities against a pre-defined annual budget commitment. Without adequate flexibility in the subscription model, your organization might fail to benefit from capabilities that could transform your observability and security processes.

In the ever-evolving landscape of modern software development, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) have emerged as crucial building blocks that enable seamless communication between different software systems, applications, and services. APIs act as intermediaries, allowing developers to access the functionality and data of existing software components, making it easier to build new applications and integrate various services into a unified ecosystem.

By Arthur Gonigberg , Argha C Plaintext Past When Zuul was designed and developed , there was an inherent assumption that connections were effectively free, given we weren’t using mutual TLS (mTLS). It’s built on top of Netty , using event loops for non-blocking execution of requests, one loop per core. To reduce contention among event loops, we created connection pools for each, keeping them completely independent.

This week I’ve been reading through the recent judgment from the Swedish FSA on the Swedbank outage. If you’re unfamiliar with this story, Swedbank had a major outage in April 2022 that was caused by an unapproved change to their IT systems. It temporarily left nearly a million customers with incorrect balances, many of whom were unable to meet payments.

Some years ago, I worked closely with the Spring Framework team as a product manager at Pivotal Software. In 2015, the Spring folks already regarded Dynatrace as the gold standard for performance monitoring. With PurePath® distributed tracing, method hotspots, service flows, memory, and GC analysis, Dynatrace earned its reputation.Since then, Spring and Dynatrace have matured and improved, especially for containers, cloud integrations, and Kubernetes.

Caching is the process of storing frequently accessed data or resources in a temporary storage location, such as memory or disk, to improve retrieval speed and reduce the need for repetitive processing. Benefits of Caching Improved performance: Caching eliminates the need to retrieve data from the original source every time, resulting in faster response times and reduced latency.

By: Hamid Shahid , Laura Johnson , Tiffany Low Synopsis At Netflix, we have created millions of artwork to represent our titles. Each artwork tells a story about the title it represents. From our testing on promotional assets , we know which of these assets have performed well and which ones haven’t. Through this, our teams have developed an intuition of what visual and thematic artwork characteristics work well for what genres of titles.

As user experiences become increasingly important to bottom-line growth, organizations are turning to behavior analytics tools to understand the user experience across their digital properties. In doing so, organizations are maximizing the strategic value of their customer data and gaining a competitive advantage. According to McKinsey , organizations that leverage customer behavioral insights outperform peers by 85% in sales growth and more than 25% in gross margin.

Service mesh emerged as a response to the growing popularity of cloud-native environments, microservices architecture, and Kubernetes. It has its roots in the three-tiered model of application architecture. While Kubernetes helped resolve deployment challenges, the communication between microservices remained a source of unreliability. Under a heavy load, the application could break if the traffic routing, load balancing, etc., were not optimized.

To follow up on our previous survey about low-code and no-code tools, we decided to run another short survey about tools specifically for software developers—including, but not limited to, GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT. We’re interested in how “developer enablement” tools of all sorts are changing the workplace. Our survey 1 showed that while these tools increased productivity, they aren’t without their costs.

This blog post will cover the basic setup of the InnoDB ClusterSet environment, which provides disaster tolerance for InnoDB Cluster deployments by associating a primary InnoDB Cluster with one or more replicas in alternate locations/different data centers. InnoDB ClusterSet automatically manages replication from the primary cluster to the replica clusters via a specific ClusterSet Async replication channel.

User experience monitoring is critical for organizations that want to keep their end users happy, whether they are customers, admins, or employees. Many organizations’ IT teams address digital experience in the latter half of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). But with the rise of DevSecOps and the “ shift left ” of development practices, more organizations are beginning to see the benefits of building user experience earlier into the SDLC.

Last week, yet another company — HashiCorp — announced they are changing the license for the majority of their software from an Open Source License (Mozilla Public License 2.0) to a Business Source License ( BSL ). It is worth noting that, unlike licenses like GPL or even SSPL, BSL is not a specific license but more of a template, allowing for some wording to change.

The observability landscape is witnessing a radical transformation today. The central driver of this shift is eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter), a technology that is revolutionizing how we observe and monitor systems.

In this article, we will compare eBPF-based instrumentation with other instrumentation methods like code agents and sidecars and see which best suits the needs of obs

Itamar Marom suggests that Catan as a good board game, which takes a lot of time, super annoying when you lose, but generally a lot of fun. So highly suggested! Other members like Hugh Lashbrooke and Robert Hodges prefer Monopoly, where you must reach a higher level of monopoly awareness to enjoy it fully.

Caution : It is important to verify that you are not using any specific MariaDB features before migrating to MySQL 8.0.x. Recently, we had a client wanting to move from MariaDB 10.4 to MySQL 8.0, and this transition presented several challenges.
