As part of our work to surface logs as additional context in LogicMonitor, we developed an initial integration to bring Unomaly logs into the LogicMonitor platform. This integration uses LogicMonitor EventSources and DataSources to display the log anomalies and known events collected by Unomaly and Monitor the frequency of these events over time.
The majority of IT issues can be found in log data. They can show what happened, when and where. They are incredibly versatile and hold a lot of value when it comes to investigating and getting to the root cause of a problem. Log data can provide a detailed overview of your microservices architecture and enable you to drill down into the behaviour of that application or server.
Happy New Year! We’re starting 2020 with some exciting news. We are pleased to announce that as of today, Unomaly has become part of LogicMonitor, the leading global provider of infrastructure monitoring and intelligence across both on-premises and cloud.
Software used to be simple enough so that one could monitor its state in order to know if something was wrong and to immediately know why it was broken. One could create a set of alerts based on some known errors or known metrics and immediately react appropriately when one of those alerts were triggered. But in today’s systems, there are hundreds or thousands of potential causes. They are unknown. No amount of dashboards nor alerts can solve this fundamental problem. We need to change our approach and have the ability to ask any questions to our systems to observe them while they’re running.
We’ve tripled our key feature set to give you exponentially greater context when investigating incidents using your log data and understanding your software’s running state to discover unknown aspects of your infrastructure.
For the past few months, we have quietly tested a new way to run Unomaly on any platform that supports DockerCE with a few of our customers. Now we are opening our alpha program, codenamed Amelia, to anyone who is interested, whether you are a Unomaly veteran or trying us for the first time.
The causes of many IT issues are usually found in your log data. It can show you what happened, when and where. They are extremely versatile and hold a lot of value when it comes to investigating and getting to the root cause of a problem.
ESL, a long time customer of Unomaly has been evolving alongside us. We interviewed them back in 2018 and decided to check in again. Thomas Pohler (VP of IT) and Felix Fienhals (Site Reliability Engineer) sat down with us and took us through how they are using Unomaly now and how they see the company continuing to use Unomaly in future.
Google Cloud Platform offers a basic set of monitoring capabilities baked into the platform. Virtually anything that runs on top of GCP will get basic monitoring through health checks, basic alerting and basic log management.
WebAssembly is a low-level compilation target for many languages like Go, C and C++. It is since 2017 supported in all major browsers and enables performance critical code to run in the client or other JavaScript environments.
