Beyond the Pipeline: Data Isn't Oil, It's Power.

Originally published on Medium, this piece by Winston Hearn dives into a philosophical discussion on why the "data is oil" metaphor is no longer serving the tech industry. Hearn argues that by reframing our thinking to "data is power," we can better understand and manage today's complex data systems. ‍ For more than a decade, we in the tech industry have referenced a common metaphor: data is the new oil. It’s a concept that’s easy to grasp.

RUM measurements: Start with the data, discover the story

When something breaks in your application, a slow page, a spike in errors, or a drop in engagement, the typical response is to chase the symptoms. But what if we flipped that process?

How To Use Alloy and Hosted Graphite's Loki to Store and Visualize Logs

In a modern DevOps environment, having just metrics or just logs is like trying to navigate with half a map because you’re missing important context that makes decisions faster and smarter.

Visualizing Logs Alongside Metrics: A Practical Use Case

Security threats aren’t always loud and don’t always crash systems or trigger alarms.

These behaviors often show up in logs before they surface in metrics but if you're only watching logs or only tracking metrics, you're missing part of the story.
