AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that can run code in response to predetermined events or conditions and automatically manage all the computing resources required for those processes. But with the benefits also come concerns about observability, and how to monitor and manage ever-expanding cloud software stacks.

Complementing the hardware is the software on the RAE and in the cloud, and bridging the software on both ends is a bi-directional control plane. The challenge, then, is to be able to ingest and process these events in a scalable manner, i.e., scaling with the number of devices, which will be the focus of this blog post.

In modern cloud environments, every piece of hardware, software, cloud infrastructure component, container, open-source tool, and microservice generates records of every activity. Many organisations adopt an observability solution to analyse the significance of events to their operations, making it ideally suited to APRA CPS 230 compliance.

The purpose of infrastructure as code is to enable developers or operations teams to automatically manage, monitor, and provision resources, rather than manually configure discrete hardware devices and operating systems. In response, Dynatrace introduced Monaco (Monitoring-as-code). Register now!

In the context of IT (Information Technology), an incident is simply an event or issue that disrupts normal operation or quality of service. Now that we have talked about what an incident is, incident management is the process by which teams resolve these events and bring systems and services back to normal operation. Asset Management.

To make things worse, they’re also usually unsure whose responsibility performance measuring and monitoring is. Reactive testing is usually done in response to an event in the development lifecycle, such as a build or a release, and measures the cumulative effect of all of your engineers’ changes. When: Constantly in live environments.
