On this week we have a video from the Tech Summit Berlin 2017, where Oliver Hardt shares how The New York Times went from a mix of logging and monitoring products in its infrastructure to Prometheus, a modern open-source monitoring solution for metrics and alerting.

Then on the articles section, we have the easy way to learn regex, follow by how to calculate availability, a Dockerfile for Maven-Based projects and how to make Ubuntu backups using Duplicity and Google Cloud Storage.

To close we have Petit, a free and open source command line based log analysis tool for Unix-like and designed to analyze log files in enterprise environments rapidly.

Please, send us links, events, comic strip, DevOps job related, etc., via @devopsweeknews.
