Architecture d'observabilité: Exemple de calculs financiers

L’architecture d’observabilité permet de calculer des données financières avec précision et efficacité. Découvrez un exemple de calculs financiers à travers cet article.

Technologies Cloud-Native : Comment les services de paiement sont-ils architecturés ? En 2020, j’ai présenté une série avec des insights issus de mises en œuvre réelles adoptant des technologies open-source et cloud-native pour moderniser les services de paiement. Les architectures présentées étaient basées sur des technologies cloud-native open-source, telles que des conteneurs, des microservices et une plateforme de conteneurs basée sur Kubernetes. La principale omission dans cette série était d’éviter de discuter de tout aspect de l’observabilité cloud-native. Cette série examinera comment corriger cette omission avec une plateforme d’observabilité cloud-native open-source basée sur des normes qui aide les équipes DevOps à contrôler la vitesse, l’échelle et la complexité d’un monde cloud-native pour leur architecture de paiements financiers.

Les données sont le moteur de l’observabilité cloud-native. Les données peuvent être collectées à partir de sources telles que les journaux, les métriques et les traces. Ces données peuvent être utilisées pour comprendre le comportement des applications et des services, identifier les problèmes et prendre des décisions informées. Une plateforme d’observabilité cloud-native open-source peut fournir des outils pour collecter, stocker, analyser et visualiser ces données.

L’utilisation d’une plateforme d’observabilité cloud-native open-source peut aider les équipes DevOps à gérer la vitesse, l’échelle et la complexité de leur architecture de paiement financier. Les outils de cette plateforme peuvent être utilisés pour surveiller les performances des applications et des services, déboguer les problèmes et comprendre le comportement des utilisateurs. Les données collectées peuvent également être utilisées pour optimiser les performances et améliorer la qualité du service. Enfin, cette plateforme peut être utilisée pour alimenter des applications d’intelligence artificielle et d’apprentissage automatique afin d’améliorer encore plus le service.

Misconfigurations are the leading cause behind security incidents in Kubernetes-orchestrated or otherwise containerized environments. Without proper configuration in place, applications would run into problems ranging from noncompliance and inconsistencies to performance bottlenecks, security vulnerabilities, and functionality failure. Therefore, configuration management is a critical component in a software development lifecycle for maintaining systems in a desired, consistent state.

According to Red Hat’s State of Kubernetes Security report, misconfigurations were the leading cause behind security incidents in Kubernetes-orchestrated or otherwise containerized environments. Without proper configuration in place, applications would run into problems ranging from noncompliance and inconsistencies to performance bottlenecks, security vulnerabilities, and functionality failure. This would make cloud-native systems unstable and cause them to become a liability to businesses. For this reason, configuration management is a critical component in a software development lifecycle for maintaining systems in a desired, consistent state. However, the way configuration management is done has been evolving over the years. This post traces the history of configuration management, focusing on how GitOps handles this critical aspect of running cloud-native applications today.

With microservices architecture becoming the de facto standard for web applications now, effective debugging and anomaly detection calls for a system that is observable — which means, the internal state of an application can be inferred by observing and tracking the metrics, traces, and logs.

Observability is all about data exposure and easy access to information required to find issues when the communications fail, internal events do not occur as expected or events occur when they shouldn’t. Here, you’ll learn and know about different microservices monitoring tools and how to monitor microservices. Let’s take a look!

Symbolization is a technique that allows you to translate machine memory addresses to human-readable symbol information (symbols).

Why do we need to read what programs do anyways? We usually do not need to translate everything to a human-readable format when things run smoothly. But when things go south, we need to understand what is going on under the hood. Symbolization is needed by introspection tools like debuggers, profilers, core dumps, or any other program that needs to trace the execution of another program. While a target program is executing on a machine, these types of programs capture the stack traces of the program that is being executed.

We’re well on our way to Hallowe’en already, and it’s time for another collection of websites that have caught our eye.

It’s a mixed bag of candy this month, but nothing that should make you scream with fright. Enjoy!

Tether

This single-page site for forthcoming cycle safety system Tether uses a balanced combination of hero video and illustration to explain its features.

Wayfinder 

Wayfinder is a game about our connection to nature that uses generative code, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data mining to create a new experience each time it is played.

Beechhouse

Beechhouse has a clean, airy feel, with subtle scrolling animation. For a tattoo studio, the overall feel is refreshingly light, without a rose-filled skull to be seen.

edenspiekermann_ 

This is how you do a portfolio site with absolute confidence.

Forward Festival 

Forward Festival is a series of creative conferences run by Forward Creatives design agency. This is an excellent example of a classic magazine site with enough individuality to pull the user in and keep them engaged.

Danmarks Motionsuge 

Denmark’s Exercise Week focuses on a national campaign (in Denmark) to get Danish people to be more active. A fresh color scheme, offset grid, and strong photography all create a dynamic feel. And it is somehow reassuring to the rest of us that even the second happiest population in the world needs to exercise more.

Franco Maria Ricci 

Because we have come to expect load times to be almost nothing, loading screens are not something too many sites bother with. However, this site for publisher Franco Maria Ricci is a pleasing exception.

Pierre Yovanovitch 

Stylishly curated portfolio and catalog site for interior and furniture designer Pierre Yovanovitch.

Gir

Silicone spatulas are probably not the first subject most of us fantasize about designing a site for, but that’s what makes this site for Gir extra good. The ‘add to cart’ footer widget on individual product pages is done well, making sure a buy button is always present but without being over pushy.

Gastronomical 

Bright, bold, and in your face, this site for Gastronomical pancake and waffle mix is about as far from Betty Crocker as it could get, bringing ‘cool’ to home baking.

FC XV

Marking 15 years of Dutch fashion brand Fabienne Chapot, this microsite makes a feature of the illustration style used by the brand for its prints.

Websmith Studio

This is a good, simple portfolio site with good use of color to highlight, and the background noise effect adds subtle interest. Good name too.

Van Gogh Museum

This is definitely one of the better museum websites around. The use of color creates warmth without detracting from the sense of space. The ability to search the collection visually is a welcome feature.

Chérie Healey 

Life coach Chérie Healey’s site manages to stay on the right side of positive and uplifting without tipping over into hippy meme territory.

Kalso 

To mark the launch of the new Earth Shoes website, this microsite traces the history of the original Kalso Earth shoes, starting with their inventor Anne Kalsø herself.

The Order of the Good Death 

The Order of the Good Death is aimed at changing attitudes around a subject that most of us find extremely difficult, in a way that is informative and at the same time appealing. The tone of the content is as essential here as the visual style.

Air Company 

The use of split-screen works well here for Air Company, to show now and future, along with some great photography and video.

Wild Fi 

Wild Fi design agency’s site manages to be colorful but clean at the same time. Bold type and a balance between black on white and white on black make an impact.

Firefly 

This site for Firefly digital design agency has some great little details, notably a glow around the cursor.

StudioBand 

Dark neutral colors provide a calm, muted background for video and photography of work in StudioBand’s portfolio site redesign.

When I first started following Charity on Twitter back in early 2019, I was quickly overwhelmed by the new words and concepts she was discussing. I liked the results she described: faster debugging, less alert fatigue, happier users. Those are all things I wanted for my team! But I was hung up on these big polysyllabic words, which stopped me from taking those first steps toward improving our own observability.

This post is my attempt to help orient folks who want to learn more about observability but maybe feel overwhelmed or intimidated by the vocabulary list, like I did. My goal is to get everyone on the same page about what these words mean so that we can focus on leveraging the tools and ideas to build better software and deliver more value!
