• Send the logs of your Shuttle-powered backend to Datadog

  Ideally, if we had access to the underlying infrastructure, we could probably install the Datadog Agent and configure it to send our logs directly to Datadog, or even use AWS Lambda functions or Azure Event Hub + Azure Functions in case we were facing some specific cloud scenarios. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• I wanted a self hosted alternative to Atlassian status page so I build my own application !

  Currently supported : Datadog, Jenkins, DNS, HTTP. Source: over 1 year ago

• Datadog on Kubernetes: Avoiding Common Pitfalls

  Datadog is a powerful monitoring and security platform that gives you visibility into end-to-end traces, application metrics, logs, and infrastructure. While Datadog has great documentation on their Kubernetes integration, we've observed that there's some missed nuance that leads to common pitfalls. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• Post-DockerCon spam

  .. Is to see you email address being silently distributed to every single company that I've watched a talk from. And now suddenly get several promotional spam emails per day from some 4-5 different domains like instana.com, datadoghq.com, snyk.io, cockroachlabs.com (some of them send even multiple emails per day!).

• Never write a UserService again

  We're commonly doing this with logging, using services such as Loggly or DataDog. We're using managed databases, be it on AWS, Heroku or database-vendor-specific solutions. We're storing binaries on S3. Externalising user authentication and authorization might be a good candidate as well. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago

• What do you use to visualize your topology?

  Two manually updated svg maps on nagvis that integrate with our icinga checks, one for the transport system nodes and one for the routers. Source: 12 months ago

• SSLPing permanently goes out of service

  Might be a bit of an overkill if you just want to check the certificates, but I'm using Icinga (formerly known as Nagios) to keep track of all of the systems - including webpage certificates. Source: about 2 years ago

• What "legacy" software are you still forced to use in 2022 that you wish would die?

  Some of it can be migrated rather easily to Icinga https://icinga.com/. Icinga forked from Nagios many years ago, they rewrote the engine and have done a nice WebUI. It is able to support e.g. Business branches using "satellites" that act as proxy to the main server/ server cluster. I was one of the two guys doing the setup for a company with multiple branch offices/ factories and during the time I was there it... Source: over 2 years ago

• Is there any program that can alert you of a stalled Plex Server?

  Personally I run https://icinga.com/ (to all my services, including Plex) and it polls every 5sec and after 5 fails in a row it sends me an email. Source: over 2 years ago

• Linux is dead, long-live Docker monoculture

  Fast forward 12 years and I have Icinga2 collectors in each datacenter using check_by_ssh to run check_systemd, all front-ended by Thruk. The TIG stack is something on my list of things to look into at some point, but with Dynatrace available to do all the fancy application monitoring, there's no rush. Source: over 2 years ago
