Is your AWS bill spiraling out of control? Learn battle-tested strategies to slash infrastructure costs, optimize Linux performance, and leverage Norwegian data sovereignty without sacrificing speed.
Latency isn't just network lag; it's a revenue killer. We dissect the nuances of Linux performance monitoring, from enabling detailed Nginx upstream logging to identifying the dreaded CPU steal time on oversold hosts.
Nagios says the server is up. Your customers say the site is broken. In this deep dive, we explore the emerging shift from basic monitoring to deep system observability using ELK and Prometheus, specifically tailored for the Norwegian hosting landscape in 2017.
Is your monthly AWS bill spiraling out of control? Learn how to audit zombie processes, tune MySQL for density, and leverage Norwegian KVM instances to cut infrastructure overhead by 40%.
Why your '100% Uptime' status page is a lie, and how to use the ELK Stack and Prometheus to actually see what your servers are doing. A guide for Norwegian DevOps professionals in 2017.
Stop guessing why your application is slow. From analyzing CPU steal time to configuring the ELK stack, this guide cuts through the marketing fluff and shows you how to monitor Linux systems properly.
Your API Gateway is likely the bottleneck in your microservices stack. We dive deep into Linux kernel tuning, NGINX worker configurations, and the hardware reality of low-latency serving in 2016.
It is August 2016, and the old way of monitoring servers is dead. 'Is it up?' is the wrong question. We dive into the shift towards whitebox monitoring, ELK stacks, and Prometheus 1.0 to debug the 'unknown unknowns' on your VPS.
Stop relying on basic ping checks. Learn how to monitor I/O wait, steal time, and Nginx metrics to ensure your Norwegian VPS infrastructure survives high loads without melting down.
Downtime is a choice. Learn how to monitor CPU steal, debug disk latency with iostat, and configure Zabbix 3.0 to catch failures before your Norwegian customers notice.
Cloud elasticity often masks inefficient architecture. Learn how to cut hosting costs by 40% using KVM rightsizing, Nginx tuning, and leveraging Norwegian connectivity for lower latency.
