Outlier Detection is now available as part of the Grafana Machine Learning toolkit in Grafana Cloud for Pro and Advanced users. With this feature, you can monitor a group of similar things, such as load-balanced pods in Kubernetes, and get alerted when some of them start behaving differently than their peers. There’s supposed to be a video here, but for some reason there isn’t. Either we entered the id wrong (oops!), or Vimeo is down.

As an observability provider, we are always confronted with our clients’ goal for faster resolution of problems and better overall performance of their systems. By working on large-scale projects at Logz.io, I see the same main challenge coming up for all: extracting valuable insights from huge volumes of data generated by modern systems and applications.

MLOps is the short term for machine learning operations and it represents a set of practices that aim to simplify workflow processes and automate machine learning and deep learning deployments. It accomplishes the deployment and maintenance of models reliably and efficiently for production, at a large scale. MLOps is slowly evolving into an independent approach to the machine learning lifecycle that includes all steps – from data gathering to governance and monitoring.
