This week in DevOps shows big data and and DevOps are two of the latest IT trends to intersect–and just as with BI and big data, they unlock new potential for organizations when leveraged together.

XpoLog continues to build log analytics software for applications on a variety of infrastructures in DevOps and production support using Hadoop. GigaSpaces Technologies continues to innovate around platform-as-a-service offering by combining full application lifecycle. Moogsoft is expanding technological innovation around its collaborative DevOps products with a new round of funding.

This and more below in this DevOps Weekly.

XpoLog augmented search

XpoLog, the log data analysis platform for  log data, applications and cloud infrastructure, is developing log analytics software for applications to quickly collect, parse and index massive volume of log data. The company called it as “augmented search” and you can create your own saved searches on the data, can tag those searches for later, and when other users search, you will be made aware that those searches coincide with the context of your search.

The new system helps DevOps teams continuously deploy new services, triage system anomalies and diagnose and address problems. The company is also started providing DevOps the option to collect data sources from Hadoop and also for running the semantic analytical capabilities on the Hadoop logs.

Moogsoft gets new funding for continuous availability

Moogsoft, the Collaborative Situation Management for web-scale IT operations, last week closed an $11.3 million Series B funding round led by new investor, Wing Venture Capital to build DevOps solution for continuous availability of services. The new funding will be used to expand technological innovation around its collaborative DevOps products as well as fuel geographic expansion.

The company’s flagship product Incident.MOOG detects incidents as they unfold, reduces the noise without preset rules or models, creates contextualized situations and then orchestrates rapid restoral of business services. Moogsoft intends to expand its products for delivery of continuous availability to web-scale environments and making IT and DevOps more agile.

GigaSpaces updates Cloudify for full application lifecycle

GigaSpaces Technologies last week updated its Cloudify orchestration platform to help automate management of applications. The Cloudify 3.0 version emphases on app deployment, scaling, and management on a range of cloud environments, including the SoftLayer public cloud and public and private clouds based on the open source OpenStack cloud controller and the VMware vSphere and vCloud alternative.

The product has been re-architect to make use of Python so that DevOps has the ability on managing the full application lifecycle and less on application installation, in an attempt to reduce the complexity of cloud application management and ensures that managed applications meet their desired service-level agreement. Cloudify 3.0 also ships with a centralized dashboard to provide transparency into service health as well as progress on deploying new services, updates and resource usage.

EnterpriseDB extends PostgreSQL for developer reach

EnterpriseDB (EDB) has released an updated PostgreSQL’s ability for MongoDB to the open source PostgreSQL community and is planning to release one for Hadoop in coming months. The release called Foreign Data Wrapper (FDW) take advantage of expanded capabilities of PostgreSQL that allows users to pull in data from their analytic clusters utilizing familiar SQL syntax.

FDWs enable developers to integrate structured and unstructured data within their Postgres databases with data from outside sources. The update supports MongoDB, CouchDB, Informix, MySQL, Neo4j, Oracle, Redis and others. Developer can map to the JDBC, LDAP and ODBC interfaces and work with such non-traditional data sources as files, HTTP, Amazon’s S3 and Twitter.
