Making Observability AI-Native with the Logz.io MCP Server

Now available: Secure, real-time access to your observability data via Logz.io’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server. The Logz.io MCP Server brings your logs, metrics, and telemetry data into the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an emerging open standard that lets AI systems query real data securely and contextually, in real time. That means any MCP-compatible LLM, like Claude Desktop, Cursor, your own AI agent… can now connect directly to your Logz.io environment.

What the RFC?! Making sense of syslog before you migrate

Syslog: it's everywhere, it’s ancient, and let’s be honest — it rarely shows up the way the RFC says it should. Before you cut over to Cribl Stream, it pays to understand exactly what you're dealing with and why it matters. In this talk, we’ll demystify the syslog format (yes, the actual RFC 3164 and 5424 stuff), look at what happens when data goes rogue, and explore how Cribl can help bring order to the chaos.
