Reliability engineering — its significance and key principles

Choosing a product or a service to buy is a complex process. Your own tastes play an important role, of course, but very often product reliability is what impacts your decision most of all. It is especially important when you are looking at something that can potentially serve you for many years to come. Nobody likes spending a ton of money on a device that works right now but will fail in a couple of months. However, we can all agree that nothing lasts forever. Any product or system can fail, which is why warranties exist.

Enhancing the user experience with end user experience monitoring (EUEM)

In today's digital landscape, where user satisfaction is paramount, organizations strive to deliver seamless and optimized experiences to their end users. End user experience monitoring (EUEM) plays a pivotal role in achieving this goal. Unlike application performance monitoring or network performance monitoring, EUEM focuses specifically on measuring and improving the user experience. In this article, we will explore the concept of EUEM, discuss its advantages, highlight the potential long-term benefits, and delve into the specific metrics, visualization, and tools used in EUEM.

Essential monitoring metrics for better decision-making

Any company dealing with software development knows the importance of reliable infrastructure. Whether you have multiple environments for testing and production which are needed to allow your own teams to work without interruptions or you provide mobile or web services to customers, you will have to keep an eye on your systems. So it goes without saying, you will need a good monitoring system to make sure your systems and infrastructure keep performing as they should. But modern monitoring systems provide tons of raw data when the performance metrics are collected.

[interview] How to use data to navigate complex systems better? Talking about monitoring and observability.

In today's constantly developing technological landscape, businesses are looking for solutions that help them manage complex systems and ensure optimal performance. However, although 90% of IT professionals believe observability is important and strategic to their business, only 26% said their observability practice was mature. Why this difference? What are the reasons why businesses don’t manage to implement monitoring and observability at a high level? In this interview, we explore the significance of monitoring and observability - our guests Edyta Kałka, Senior Engineering Manager, and Maciej Manturewicz, Director of Engineering, will share their insights, real-world experiences, and opinions on how to create effective monitoring and observability solutions.
