There are many ways in which you can save money from using our Trackimo GPS fleet tracking. In a recent study, for a fleet of 50 vehicles: 1. You will be able to cut down fuel usage by up to 44 gallons a month which are equivalent to more or less $1,213. 2. It can also lower vehicle downtime by up to 87 hours a month or $306. 3. When you use GPS fleet tracking, you will see an improvement in employee productivity, saving you up to $1,575 on unnecessary overtime cost or about 175 man hours. 4. The GPS system can also help you reduce on vehicle maintenance by about $4,462 a month. That’s about an estimated total monthly savings of $7,556 while our GPS fleet tracking software will only cost you $4,462 per month! That means a return on investment is guaranteed within just the first month of using our Trackimo fleet tracking system. But more than money, the GPS tracking system can help you protect not just your business interest but the safety of your employees as well.

At VMware, we define Continuous Verification as: “A process of querying external systems and using information from the response to make decisions to improve the development and deployment process.” At #OSSDay, I got a chance to not only talk about what that means for serverless apps and how you can build it into your existing pipelines using tools like GitLab, CloudHealth, Wavefront, and Gotling.

DEV209 A Field Guide to Monitoring in the Cloud: From Lift and Shift to AWS L...

New Relic

Presented by Kevin Downs, Senior AWS Technical Partner Manager of New Relic, at Amazon Web Services re:Invent 2017. Static applications living on long running servers are becoming history in the cloud along with the monitoring assumptions we used to make. Now, we routinely deploy a range of services from autoscaling compute to decoupled message queues to serverless. These dynamic services, along with microservice architectures both break and need to co-exist with traditional monitoring and instrumentation approaches. Whether you are building new apps, were told to migrate yesterday, are currently migrating, or are already scaling your apps on AWS, this session will dive into the how, where, and when to monitor your applications and infrastructure, no matter where your apps run. You’ll hear best practices we've learned from our customers and running our own service (1.5 Billion+ metrics per minute) too. Join us for a little bit of history and a whole lot of now as we show you how and what you need to scale and prove your success in the cloud.
