ITDevCon 2024 Spring Edition: sun and code!
One week has passed since the conclusion of ITDevCon 2024 European Delphi Conference Spring Edition , the conference dedicated to Delphi developers organized by bit Time Group ( bit Time Software and bit Time Professionals ). 😊 I also made my little contribution to the event giving a session dedicated to MongoDB, or rather FerretDB.

Webinar - Monitor your microservices using Prometheus (replay)
This is the replay (in Italian language) of the webinar held last October 19 by Reteinformaticalavoro - a Web portal dedicated to work in the IT field, titled Monitor your microservices using Prometheus.
In this webinar we explored the main features of Prometheus , an opensource tool that most companies adopt for monitoring their software systems, whether they are built with microservices or not.
Furthermore, we went deep on how to install, configure and use it for checking the health status of all the services involved withing a software system, including those we develop ourselves but also thid party ones, like databases, messaging brokers, server machines, hardware devices, operating systems and many more, done through collecting the values of metrics, the data we can collect and analyze with the aim of improving performance and efficienty of the entire system over time, but above all identifying problems in advance before they impact users or even worse… needy customers!
