We are noticing that some of our requests are starting to get slow and server load increases. Checking the process list of our server, for example with htop reveals that our FPM workers are taking up all of our CPU time. Checking the health with our basic toolset of lsof to show open network connections and strace to show syscalls does not reveal any activity. This means that the workers are spending time processing data without any externally visible activity.

Data integration logging is the process of recording events and activities during data movement across systems, ensuring accuracy, troubleshooting, and regulatory compliance. In complex environments like those of Netflix and Airbnb, logging is critical for system reliability and performance. However, challenges such as managing large log volumes, inconsistent formats, and compliance requirements make effective logging difficult.

When it comes to handling security breaches, cloud and on-premise environments offer vastly different incident response approaches. Here's what you need to know: Cloud setups prioritize speed and automation. They reduce recovery times by up to 80% with tools like automated playbooks, real-time monitoring, and built-in redundancy. On-premise systems offer full control over hardware and data but rely heavily on manual processes, leading to 25% longer recovery times on average.

Procurement applications sit at the heart of government operations. These systems are prime targets for cyber attacks because they manage critical, high-value data, including: They also connect with core enterprise systems (e.g., ERP, HR, financial management), creating additional risk points. In the wrong hands, this data could allow adversaries to piece together strategic mission capabilities. In this environment, security isn’t optional—it’s foundational.

Production errors are every developer's nightmare. You're enjoying your coffee when suddenly alerts start firing - users are experiencing crashes, and you need to find and fix the issue fast. Today, we'll walk you through how to use AI to diagnose and fix critical errors in an application using Rollbar's MCP (Model Context Protocol) server.
