It’s true; we looked it up. It’s the anniversary of when the first crossword puzzle was published in the New York World. Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/2024-12-newsletter https://tailscale.com/blog/2024-12-newsletter Thu, 19 Dec 2024 16:00:00 GMT Product updates, notes from the community about how folks are using Tailscale, and some upcoming events where you can meet our experts in December 2024. Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/will-moore-journey https://tailscale.com/blog/will-moore-journey Wed, 18 Dec 2024 14:00:00 GMT Will Moore, who recently joined our team as Communications Lead, shares how he came to enjoy Tailscale after a sometimes-frustrating history with networking tech. Will Moore https://tailscale.com/blog/client-metrics https://tailscale.com/blog/client-metrics Tue, 17 Dec 2024 18:15:20 GMT Tailscale client metrics are now available for local or remote examination, and can be directly ingested by Prometheus or any compatible monitoring system. These are especially useful for keeping tabs on the health and connectivity of subnet routers, and we think they’ll be an immediate upgrade for users that rely on those, such as users with site-to-site network configurations or teams using Tailscale with Kubernetes. Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-wrapped-2024 https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-wrapped-2024 Wed, 11 Dec 2024 14:00:00 GMT As 2024 comes to a close, let's look at what’s changed—for Tailscale and in the broader landscape of secure networking. This year, the shift towards distributed work, increasingly complex regulatory requirements, and the growing awareness of Zero Trust principles all intersected with one universal truth: most people just want things to work. Avery Pennarun https://tailscale.com/blog/four-ways-tailscale-service https://tailscale.com/blog/four-ways-tailscale-service Thu, 05 Dec 2024 17:15:00 GMT Let’s say you’ve got some kind of service you want to connect to through Tailscale. How do you make it accessible over your tailnet? It's easy for decision paralysis to set in here, so let's consolidate some of the possibilities in one place. Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/infra-team-stays-small https://tailscale.com/blog/infra-team-stays-small Fri, 22 Nov 2024 14:00:00 GMT When I talk to other infrastructure folks at tech conferences, they’re usually shocked to hear that Tailscale’s infra team is just three engineers. Companies of similar size often have multiples of that. How do we manage to get by with so few people? Kylie Fisher https://tailscale.com/blog/video-searxng https://tailscale.com/blog/video-searxng Mon, 18 Nov 2024 15:00:41 GMT In today’s video, we’ll walk through how to install the application SearXNG in a container accessible from anywhere through Tailscale. SearXNG is a fully open-source search engine aggregator that can combine results from services and databases across the web and present them without any compromises on your privacy. Alex Kretzschmar https://tailscale.com/blog/2024-11-newsletter https://tailscale.com/blog/2024-11-newsletter Wed, 13 Nov 2024 16:00:00 GMT This month's newsletter brings a bunch of recent product updates, notes from the community about how folks are using Tailscale, and some upcoming events where you can catch us online and IRL. Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/s3-log-streaming https://tailscale.com/blog/s3-log-streaming Tue, 12 Nov 2024 13:00:00 GMT Tailscale administrators can now use Amazon S3 and S3-compatible buckets as streaming destinations for both configuration audit logs and network flow logs. Tailscale’s log streaming offerings have long been an important part of our users’ compliance and security strategies, and over the past year we’ve added support for many of the most popular security information and event management (SIEM) systems as streaming endpoints. Pouyan Aminian, Parker Higgins https://tailscale.com/blog/fast-50-2024 https://tailscale.com/blog/fast-50-2024 Wed, 06 Nov 2024 13:00:00 GMT Tailscale has been recognized in Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 as one of Canada’s fastest-growing tech innovators. It’s an honour to be included alongside other companies that are pushing boundaries, both abroad and right here at home. David Carney https://tailscale.com/blog/factorio-multiplayer-video https://tailscale.com/blog/factorio-multiplayer-video Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:00:58 GMT With the recent release of Factorio’s Space Age expansion, we’ve been playing a lot of the base-building game — and that started with setting up a multiplayer server and sharing it into our friends’ tailnets. Alex Kretzschmar https://tailscale.com/blog/1password-extended-access-kolide https://tailscale.com/blog/1password-extended-access-kolide Thu, 24 Oct 2024 14:00:00 GMT Tailscale’s device posture integration with 1Password’s Extended Access Management's device trust (previously Kolide) is now generally available. This integration is designed to address the access-trust gap of devices in your network, and helps ensure that only trusted and compliant devices are accessing your company’s network and resources. Tinku Thomas https://tailscale.com/blog/ai-normal https://tailscale.com/blog/ai-normal Fri, 18 Oct 2024 14:00:00 GMT A year ago, we started noticing that Tailscale was getting popular with AI companies. That was the good news. The bad news: we didn't know why. After a bunch of research, it turns out AI companies like Tailscale for pretty much the same reasons everyone else does. Avery Pennarun https://tailscale.com/blog/google-workspace-sync-ga https://tailscale.com/blog/google-workspace-sync-ga Wed, 16 Oct 2024 14:30:00 GMT We've taken another big step towards simplifying network administration by working seamlessly with Google Workspace - one of the world's most used productivity suites.
