AI observability: The backbone of mission resilience in the public sector

Feb 12, 2026 By Leah McEwen In Elastic
Downtime cost the public sector $193 million last year — and the financial hit is only the beginning. Beyond the numbers, downtime in the public sector can also lead to severe consequences for citizens: interrupted access to critical online services, delayed benefits, and stalled emergency response. When citizens cannot rely on government services, downtime becomes more than an inconvenience; it becomes a matter of trust. More than uptime, resilience is the new success metric for modern government.

Troubleshooting & RCA with Olly

Feb 12, 2026 By Lily Waldorf In Coralogix
If troubleshooting still feels harder than it should, check on these two numbers: how many dashboards you have, and how many alerts fire every day. For most teams, it’s hundreds of dashboards and thousands of alerts, a sign of maturity, coverage, and good intentions. On the other hand, we also see that when something actually breaks, that coverage rarely turns into clarity fast enough.

OpenTelemetry in Production: Design for Order, High Signal, Low Noise, and Survival

Feb 11, 2026 By Sematext In Sematext
A lot of talk around OpenTelemetry has to do with instrumentation, especially auto-instrumentation, about OTel being vendor neutral, being open and a defacto standard. But how you use the final output of OTel is what makes business difference. In other words, how do you use it to make your life as an SRE/DevOps/biz person easier? How do you have to set things up to truly solve production issues faster?

Exploring Splunk Alternatives [2026]: Deep Dive into Log Analysis

Feb 10, 2026 By Aiswarya S In Atatus
Splunk isn't bad software. It's genuinely powerful. But in 2026, a lot of engineering teams are asking a fair question: are we getting $300K worth of value out of this? More often than not, the answer is no. We went through 15 alternatives - read the docs, tested where we could, and talked to engineers who made the switch. This is what we found.

The Human-Centric Stack: Why Logs Are the Great Equalizer in the Age of AI

Feb 5, 2026 By Rachel Revoy In SolarWinds
In 2026, we are seeing incredible feats of engineering with agentic AI, impacting metrics and distributed traces that map thousands of microservices. Our systems have never been more intelligent and complex. However, as our observability becomes more intelligent, fewer employees know how to manage and troubleshoot complex systems. These employees, who often bear the brunt of an error’s impact, may need to rely on specialists to interpret the system.
