It's always an interesting thought that I had meetings about the log aggregation dropping stack traces that would take ~3 3.5" floppies to store. Each.

Zabbix also confuses operators at this point. I recently had to increase a cache. I chose to go from a solid 4MB to a luxurious 256MB.

I know high-performance Java, so just a little jab there, but you don't size JVM parameters like that, except maybe code caches. And before Rust comes in, we also have a Rust application running without good resource control and it wouldn't like those resource constraints.

There is truth to this article.
