The goal of OKRs is for every member of the organisation – from the key stakeholders and leaders down to the team members – understand the objectives of the company through a set of defined, specific and measurable actions. With today’s complex nature of organisations, team members often find themselves feeling lost amidst the rapid changes that they deal with every day.

Without the right tools to aggregate and parse your log data, finding and understanding the information you’re looking for is nearly impossible. There are endless uses for logs because the logs themselves are endless. Application logs, security logs, BI logs, Lincoln logs (Ok, maybe not)… Setting aside security, BI and childhood fun for a moment, even looking specifically at uses for application logs alone, there are countless uses.

When a headline screams something like “worst DDoS ever,” it’s often accurate. Distributed denial-of-service attacks, which deluge targeted sites or services with traffic to force them offline, have been growing in strength and scope for decades. And although organizations can do certain things to mitigate the impact of an attack, our seemingly ever-increasing usage of Internet-connected devices is likely only inviting more DDoS trouble.

Ok, so I have to first preface this whole blog post by a few things: I really struggle with the term microservices. I can’t put my finger on exactly why. Maybe because the term is hopelessly ill-defined, maybe because it’s gotten picked up by the hype train. Whatever. But I have to stick to some type of terminology so let’s just roll with it. This blog post might be mildly controversial, but I’m throwing it out there because I’ve had this itchy feeling for so long and I can’t get rid of it.

More frequent deployments are great, but maintaining high-quality code while implementing them is a whole different story. Everyone is talking about moving towards an automated workflow, and there’s no wonder. We all want to deploy more features and capabilities to our products and applications, and we want to do it as quickly as we can. However, automation is not something that we should take lightly as it comes with some risks that shouldn’t be ignored.

Israel has chosen to heed their warning by creating a health care cyber emergency response yeam, or CERT, to lay out how administrators and doctors should respond to the next destructive cyberattack.

It’s interesting that a lot of IT projects are considered as failures even though the development teams were able to submit the output on time and within budget. As it turns out, these projects were not considered as successes since they didn’t meet the demands or standards of the stakeholders.
