   Just works out of the box.

   Before using Lumigo I worked with clients on all sorts of hacks to debug Serverless Apps. This involved cluttering the code base with logs and deciphering the output on CloudWatch. A fellow consultant told us about his success with Lumigo. We decided to give it a go. Within minutes, our customers started to enjoy meaningful, actionable insights. All our clients now probably enjoy a reduction of about 60 percent in our time-to-response has been cut by about 60 percent.

   Reduces the clutter when debugging Serverless applications

   I've been using Lumigo in the past year. It's been helping me find underline issues that are much harder to find compared to cloudwatch, it puts everything in a unified view and reduces the need to move between a list of logs in CloudWatch. I like the alerts that come out of the box and especially the integration with external tools, noo need for me to write any Lambda to interact with my Slack channel.

   👍 Pros:    Instant alerts|Easy to use|Easy log correlation

   👎 Cons:    Missing cli

   APM + dist-tracing for serverless

   Best onboarding of an APM I've seen. No code changes and literally 5 clicks. Really helps the team spot production glitches and understand root cause immediately.

   I love the idea of presenting distributed system flow via visual maps !

   🏁 Competitors: Datadog, AWS X-Ray, NewRelic, Amazon CloudWatch, AppDynamics

   👍 Pros:    Seamless onboarding|Pre-configured serverless alerts|100% automated distributed tracing

   👎 Cons:    Does not support on premise servers

• Tracing On Kubernetes

  You can do so at this link: https://lumigo.io/. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• The biggest problem with EventBridge Scheduler and how to fix it

  Luckily, we just need to make sure the target Lambda function (for the schedule) receives the name of the schedule as part of its invocation event. Because the onSuccess function would receive this as requestPayload when it’s invoked by the Lambda service, as you can see from the trace collected in Lumigo:. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• The Risks of Moving Too Quickly with Serverless Development

  No Indicators of Success - As much as we'd all like it, observability tools don't automatically track your business metrics. You can add APM vendors like BaseLime, Lumigo, and DataDog to your account, but unless you intentionally add meaningful metrics to track your KPIs, you're left in the dark. Metrics tend to fall by the wayside in many scenarios where speed is the primary objective. No business metrics mean... - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• Serverless takeaways

  Lumigo: Lumigo is similar to Datadog, but the main different is that lumigo focuses on traceability. The more incredible feature it is the graphs and the following to the transaction to the time of live. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• How to see the event that triggered a lambda?

  We’re using https://lumigo.io/ to trace our lambda functions and it’s a great deal in terms of what you’re paying and what you’re getting. Source: over 1 year ago

• 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 !

• 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
