The software monitoring world is broken because of a TSDB. We deserve a TSDW

Ths single most important thing to get better at your software monitoring journey

A wishlist of things that need to change in the world of software monitoring

Dissecting the RCA of Alerting - Reliability, Correlations, Actionability

Modern monitoring systems depend heavily on ‘Alerting’ to reduce the Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) faulty systems. But, alerting hasn’t evolved to meet the demands of modern architectures. We’re changing that with Alert Studio.

Chasing shiny new toys, as always ;)

A short history of software monitoring, from the 00s. What has changed? Why are things so arcane?

A detailed checklist of points you should consider before choosing a monitoring system

If you want to bring down your monitoring costs, you need to shake up a decision paralysis in engineering

Deep diving into the 'Normal accident' theory by Charles Perrow, and what it means for SREs

If all companies are software companies, all companies need better Observability to understand how performative their software is

Take back control of your Monitoring with Levitate - a managed time series data warehouse

Engineering organizations that ship fast have Observability as part of their core DNA.

Whoever owns Reliability should define its parameters. But who owns the Reliability of a Product? Engineering? Product Management? Or the Customer success team?

From Robocars to Reliability — SRE with self-driving cars; mapping out where the Observability space is in conjunction with self-driving cars

The Reliability industry needs a managed, non-vendor lock-in answer to spiraling costs, high cardinality and the toil of managing a tsdb

The current tech winter reveals a hard truth: spending on internal tools for tech infrastructure is bloated—and this isn't just a passing cycle.

How does a DevOps/Site Reliability Engineer plan for "Cricket scale"? How do you warm systems' about to witness 30+ million concurrent users?
