Monitoring GPU utilization in AI workloads is critical for understanding performance, optimizing resource usage, and troubleshooting bottlenecks. 1. Use GPU vendor tools Each vendor provides CLI utilities that ship with their drivers. Start here before adding extra layers. NVIDIA GPUs nvidia-smi: The standard command-line interface. Run nvidia-smi for a snapshot, or nvidia-smi dmon for a […]
Building an IT infrastructure monitoring dashboard comes down to three things: picking tools that fit your stack, defining metrics that actually matter, and laying them out so you can spot trouble fast. Here’s how to put one together. Step 1: Define what you need to see Start with the components in your environment. For each, […]
Configuring IT infrastructure for real-time fraud detection systems demands careful planning to ensure performance, scalability, reliability, and security. These systems rely on advanced analytics, machine learning, and real-time data processing. Here’s a practical guide to building that infrastructure: 1. Define Requirements Fraud detection scope: Determine the fraud types (financial, e-commerce, identity theft) and evaluate data […]
Configuring jumbo frames on a server involves enabling and optimizing larger Ethernet frame sizes (typically 9000 bytes) to improve network performance, especially in environments with high data throughput such as storage networks, virtualization, and AI workloads. Below are the steps to configure jumbo frames and validate the performance improvement: 1. Understand the Environment Check compatibility: […]
Configuring a secure FTP (SFTP or FTPS) server is essential for secure file transfers. Below is a step-by-step guide to setting up a secure FTP server, considering best practices for security: 1. Choose the Type of Secure FTP Server SFTP: Uses SSH (Secure Shell) for encryption. No additional ports are needed, as it runs on […]
A storage snapshot is a point-in-time copy of your data, typically implemented at the storage array or file system level. Snapshots track changes to original data blocks rather than copying everything, making them space-efficient and fast to create. 1. Assess Your Infrastructure Verify your storage array or file system supports snapshots. Check vendor documentation (NetApp, […]
