An example we've just recently seen in a blog post showed how you can use Dynatrace data to monitor your entire application landscape across a server farm. However, potential usage scenarios are not limited to simplify the monitoring of existing applications, and one of our technology partners, the Performance Management Group (PMG)... (more)

Instant Log Gratification By @TrevParsons | @DevOpsSummit [#DevOps]

Sometimes you just don't want to wait. For example, most DevOps teams don't want to talk to a sales guy before they try out a new product, and don't want to go through a lengthy or painful sign-up process. In fact I get frustrated if I even have to install or configure something in order to get an understanding for the value of a given tool or solution. This is especially true when you want to try something out for evaluation purposes, or want an immediate answer / insight into what is happening in your system! Maybe you've got a log file that you think is full of errors or that ... (more)

Redefining the Data Center By @Automic | @CloudExpo [#Cloud]

Infrastructure Service Clouds: Redefining the Data Center By Michael Schmidt Infrastructure service cloud technology is proving as popular as flowers in the Spring. Recent research reveals that the Global Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Market will post a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.9% from 2015-2019. Indeed, many believe the shift induced by IaaS is so seismic it can be compared to the introduction of an independent power grid, which led to the detachment of power production from its location of use and replaced co-located power generators with central power plant...

"Vormetric is a data security company. We secure information at rest and our customers are some of the largest organizations in the world. The threats that are coming around today are either from state-sponsored activities and organized crime, and the intent is to steal information," explained Derek Tumulak, Vice President of Product Management at Vormetric, in this SYS-CON.tv interview at Cloud Expo, held Nov 4–6, 2014, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.
As enterprises look to take advantage of the cloud, they need to understand the importance of safeguarding their confidential and sensitive data in cloud environments. Enterprises must protect their data from (i) system administrators who don't need to see the data in the clear and (ii) adversaries who become system administrators from stolen credentials. In short, enterprises must take control of their data: The best way to do this is by using advanced encryption, centralized key management and...
NuoDB just introduced the Swifts 2.1 Release. In this demo at 15th Cloud Expo, Seth Proctor, CTO of NuoDB, Inc., discussed why scaling databases in the cloud is challenging, why building your application on top of the infrastructure that is designed with this in mind makes a difference, and what you can do with NuoDB that simplifies your programming model, your operations model.
When it comes to building applications, one database definitely does not fit all. Traditional SQL databases are great for storing highly structured, normalized data and performing analytics and reporting. NoSQL has attracted developers with its awesome flexibility, and JSON-centric document stores like Cloudant make web developers incredibly productive by offering a JavaScript environment from end-to-end. Recent Big Data challenges have driven the need for a distributed approach to analytics e...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp.

In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series dat...
