Observability engineering: Getting Prometheus metrics right for Kubernetes with Dynatrace and Kepler

Dynatrace

To get a more granular look into telemetry data, many analysts rely on custom metrics using Prometheus. Named after the Greek god who brought fire down from Mount Olympus, Prometheus metrics have been transforming observability since the project’s inception in 2012. What is Prometheus?

Performance Testing with Open Source Tools – Myths and Reality

Alex Podelko

Some time ago Federico Toledo published Performance Testing with Open Source Tools- Busting The Myths. Otherwise we wouldn’t see so many commercial tools built on the top of open source including BlazeMeter (it is ironic that the article is posted on the BlazeMeter site), Flood, and OctoPerf.

Protecting critical infrastructure and services: Ensure efficient, accurate information delivery this election year

Dynatrace

These components include schools; transportation; energy; water; and communications such as the accuracy, timeliness, and transparency of election reporting. In contrast, observability enables teams to understand a system’s internal state by analyzing the data it generates, including logs, metrics, and traces.

Boosted race trees for low energy classification

The Morning Paper

Boosted race trees for low energy classification Tzimpragos et al., We don’t talk about energy as often as we probably should on this blog, but it’s certainly true that our data centres and various IT systems consume an awful lot of it. So it’s interesting to see a paper using nano-Joules per prediction as an evaluation metric.
