Cisco is further advancing this system by replacing analog with IP cameras and exploring video analysis technologies.
Network cameras have been around for a number of years; the first one was released back in 1996. In
the early years, network camera technology was not on a par with that of professional level analog
cameras. Initially designed to take advantage of digital imaging, networking, and the Internet in new
application areas, these cameras were not used for surveillance applications. That has certainly changed.
Now, network cameras have caught up with analog camera technology and meet the same requirements
and specifications and, as we’ll see below, in several important areas, network cameras surpass analog
camera performance.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
