AppScope is a new approach to black-box instrumentation delivering ubiquitous, unified telemetry from any Linux executable by simply prepending scope to the command. Talk to any customer using Application Performance Management, and they’ll tell you how much they love their solution, but they wish they could extend it to more of their applications. Most have 10% or fewer of their apps instrumented for APM, and are supplementing what they can with basic metrics. Where does this leave the other 80%? Enter AppScope. No language-specific instrumentation. No application developers required. AppScope is language agnostic and completely userland; works with any application; scales from the CLI to production. Send AppScope data to any existing monitoring tool, time series database, or log tool. AppScope allows SREs and Ops teams to interrogate running applications to discover how they work and their behavior in any deployment context, from on-prem to cloud to containers.

Reduce risk, ship products faster, and resolve issues proactively by upgrading your Android and MCU-based devices with Memfault. By integrating Memfault into smart device infrastructure, developers and IoT device manufacturers can monitor and manage the entire device lifecycle, from development to feature updates, with ease and speed. Monitor hardware and firmware performance, remotely investigate issues, and incrementally rollout targeted updates to devices without disrupting customers. Go beyond application monitoring with device and fleet-level metrics, like battery health and connectivity with crash analytics for firmware. Resolve issues more efficiently with automatic detection, alerts, deduplication, and actionable insights sent via the cloud. Keep customers happy by fixing bugs quickly and shipping features more frequently with staged rollouts and specific device groups (cohorts).

Cilium is open-source software for providing, securing and observing network connectivity between container workloads, cloud native, and fueled by the revolutionary Kernel technology eBPF. Kubernetes doesn't come with an implementation of Load Balancing. This is usually left as an exercise for your cloud provider or in private cloud environments an exercise for your networking team. Cilium can attract this traffic with BGP and accelerate leveraging XDP and eBPF. Together these technologies provide a very robust and secure implementation of load balancing. Cilium and eBPF operate at the kernel layer. With this level of context, we can make intelligent decisions about how to connect different workloads whether on the same node or between clusters. With eBPF and XDP Cilium enables significant improvements in latency and performance and eliminates the need for Kube-proxy entirely.

DX Unified Infrastructure Management is the only solution that provides an open architecture, full-stack observability, and zero-touch configuration for monitoring traditional data center, public cloud, and hybrid infrastructure environments. Designed to ensure an optimal end-user experience, this solution provides a modern HTML5 operations console that makes it easy and fast for today’s IT teams to implement, use, and scale, leading to faster time to value. DX Unified Infrastructure Management provides actionable insights for cloud environments, such as AWS and Azure, and the modern architectures associated with cloud services, such as Nutanix, Hadoop, Mongo, Apache, etc. It combines deep domain knowledge across hybrid cloud infrastructure elements to help drive digital transformation, automation, and innovation. Automatically discover devices based on properties, then automatically set policies for each device type and deploy configurations and alarm policies as needed.

CtrlStack manages a wide variety of operational activities and sources of changes to reduce risks, track change impact, and find root causes of production issues fast. Relationship mapping in observability is finding meaningful connections and interactions between the data – metrics, events, logs, and traces. We use a native graph database to represent this “data between the data” at speed and scale. Get an end-to-end visibility of all changes across commits, configuration files, and feature flags in one click. Capture all the context of an incident at the moment it occurs, and at any time during diagnosis and resolution, to avoid reverting each other’s changes. Get insights into what, when, and who made the change, and how it impacts operations. Collaborate across teams with shared data knowledge through a DevOps graph.
