Little bit about monitoring, serverless and system understability. Have no silver bullet or clear algorithms but provide right approach to build and maintain systems.

Monitoring: Back to the Roots
Far far away... 2 type of monitoring

​​Pro tip: setup integration for your monitoring and deploying systems. It's get visualization of "what release break all" and simplify debug.

Requirements: Grafana 4.6+

For example, you have ~Zabbix~ Prometheus (monitoring), Teamcity (deploy), Grafana and some App.

1. Prometheus get some metrics from app and store to DB. We can visualize it in Grafana.
2. Teamcity successfully build and deploy new version of App.

NOW add new step after deploy which create Grafana Annotation about deploy to Prometheus.
It's add red line on your graphics so you can see which build fully of love.

P.S. On picture how can it look like.

​​Yet another #monitoring post :)
Now with little Docker EE ad, but if skip it, you find more good ideas then you can realize in nearest future.

Good blog post about how to write a status page update from yet another monitoring company.

Also, they have useful engineering blog and pretty status page

So cool monitoring solution in Grafana for Prom users, but we still using Zabbix ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

​​KRS: A new tool for gathering Kubernetes resource statistics

What it lacks in a clever name, it makes up for in utility. KRS (short for Kubernetes Resource Stats) is a zero-configuration tool that makes it easy to collect resource stats, like how many pods are running in a certain namespace.

​​Google have perfect blog-post about SRE & Devops

They explain complicated things in simple words:
1. The difference between DevOps and SRE
2. SLIs, SLOs, and SLAs
3. Risk and error budgets
4. Toil and toil budgets
5. Customer Reliability Engineering (CRE)

​​Cool grafana panel plugin to visualize status of multiple objects over time

https://github.com/flant/grafana-statusmap

Can be used as Status page or for investigation problems and their root case etc. Works with Prometheus and Grafana 5.
