According to Roman Khavronenko, co-founder of monitoring specialist VictoriaMetrics, monitoring Kubernetes and Kubernetes applications is the most popular use case for most monitoring solutions.
If your current approach to data monitoring was not born with scalability in mind, you will not be able to maintain uptime during high-traffic times.
The company’s core use case is in the disconnect between business growth and the events triggered by that growth. Metrics, for example, where VictoriaMetrics focuses, are the numerical representatives of system performance of data.
Sustainable data monitoring can cut corporate energy usage by up to 90 per cent, according to VictoriaMetrics.
The US-based Ukrainian founded scale-up, founded by ex-Google, Cloudflare and Lyftengineers to address flaws with existing open source monitoring solutions, has been designed to strike a careful balance between high performance and environmentally friendly engineering.
VictoriaMetrics has been specifically engineered to offer environmental and operational effectiveness, providing users with valuable insights into energy efficiency to optimize CPU, RAM and storage space – and from there cost.
With Kubernetes becoming a key gateway for container software development, efficient monitoring and management of the platform is critical. Antony Savvas considers some of the best tools to help do it.
VictoriaMetrics also made an impact at the cutting edge science, assisting the monitoring tasks of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the European laboratory for particle physics, CERN.
The company’s downloads reached 100 million in 2022, including one million on GitHub. Its enterprise offering grew by 289% over the last year, and Grammarly, Wix, and Adidas are among its customers.
In our always-on world of continuous computing (and continuous integration and continuous deployment) there is (arguably) a more pressing need for time-series databases.
