SolarWinds® Observability now brings more intelligence to issue identification to help you troubleshoot smarter and faster. When an entity alert is triggered, Log Patterns automates an AIOps / ML-based analysis of events surrounding the triggering event. Using Log Patterns, you can skip the hours spent manually scrolling through event messages looking for unusual or significant patterns.

When John Wanamaker famously declared, “When a customer enters my store, forget me. He is king,” he unknowingly coined a mantra that remains as relevant today as it was in the 1900s. This philosophy, rooted in the customer service ideologies of his time, holds true not just for brick-and-mortar stores but also for eCommerce.

In an IT environment with multiple alerting channels and notifications, it is easy to become overwhelmed and desensitized to alerts. This tendency to avoid or respond negatively to incoming alerts is alert fatigue. Alert fatigue is a crucial issue in IT teams, with the sheer volume of alerts generated by modern IT systems. You might prioritize the first five alerts you receive in a workday. Maybe even up to the tenth alert. But is the twentieth alert as important?

Regardless of the industry they operate in or the number of people they employ, businesses with mature observability practices can respond to incidents faster — and save time and money in the process, according to the second annual Grafana Labs Observability Survey. Organizations are making observability a critical part of their software development lifecycles as they grapple with the complexity of modern applications.

We're excited to unveil a new collaboration with Focused Labs, a leap forward in our shared commitment to advancing modern observability practices and enhancing the robustness of legacy systems. This partnership is not just about scaling our service offerings but also about integrating Focused Labs' deep engineering expertise with our observability platform to deliver unparalleled customer experiences.

If you’re an IT or network operations leader, consider the following questions: Network operators know how frustrating it can be to constantly contend with pressing network issues and outages. These team members spend copious amounts of time putting out fires, rather than focusing on efforts like making plans to optimize the network. These teams have to deal with high volumes of false alarms as well real incidents that affect network performance and availability and the user experience.

Organizations like yours are increasingly reliant on complex IT infrastructures to support their operations. Pervasive use of Kubernetes and microservices architectures continues to up the ante. Amidst this complexity, achieving comprehensive visibility into systems and applications has become both imperative for ensuring performance, reliability, and security, while also becoming ever-more challenging to achieve.

Funnels can be powerful tools for analyzing your UX, but figuring out exactly which user journeys you want to study can be challenging. Even if you have an ideal journey in mind, users often take steps you don’t expect. As a result, your funnels—and therefore, your optimization efforts—can easily miss the most influential pages in your application. Indeed, how do you build the best possible funnel when there are thousands of paths users can take after any given page?

Container-native technologies increase the scalability and speed of deployment offered by containerized infrastructure, but they also present new monitoring challenges for organizations that adopt them. For example, because containers are ephemeral and share resources, tracking resource provisioning in container-native tools is essential to ensure consistent application performance.
