Brian Mark - eCommerce Insider

As a CTO, I get to tackle everything from business automation to search marketing. As an integral member of a very quickly growing online business which is already on the Internet Retailer Top 500 list, I get to see emerging trends and technology and have become quite adjusted to living on the bleeding edge of technology and staying ahead of market demands as well as our online competitors.

Moving servers made simpler
How many times have you moved a website from one server to another and found that something doesn't work? If you're like me, the answer is more than once.

At some point, those errors can become costly. Misbehaving applications can cost serious amounts of $$$ when your business relies on them, but testing every page in every way possible isn't necessarily possible, either. Error logs can help, but dont always tell what the user did.

As we're moving this time, I installed a Coradiant TrueSight. This 1U server monitors and logs all inbound and outbound communications, giving real time reporting and monitoring of all pages. It may be pricey, but not having it could be even more costly. I'm glad we had the available funds and management that could see the value.
