Q&A: How Elastic and Anyshift are bringing AI-powered context to incident response

Incident response often depends on connecting two kinds of context: what changed in the environment and what the logs say happened next. Through a new integration with Elastic, Anyshift’s AI agent, Annie, can read from a customer’s Elasticsearch deployment to search logs, surface error and warning spikes, and correlate log evidence with infrastructure change history.

MCP vs CLI: Does it even make a difference? | Live Laugh Logs ep. 3

MCP vs CLI: does it even make a difference? Here’s everything you need to know. Welcome to Episode 3 of Live Laugh Logs, the podcast from the Coralogix Developer Relations team. This week Andre has made the move to the US, so Annie and Lewis are joined by George Pickers, Head of Solution Engineering for EMEA & APAC at Coralogix.

Monitor watchOS and visionOS apps with Datadog RUM

Apple’s platform ecosystem is evolving as developers build production applications for watchOS and visionOS. Whether it’s a fitness app on Apple Watch or an immersive spatial computing experience on Apple Vision Pro, these platforms have moved beyond the experimental phase to support real users. Despite this growth in adoption, teams lack visibility into how their apps behave on these devices.

Intelligent Packaging Operations: Quality Control and Production Line Monitoring

A lipstick tube looks simple. But making millions of them with consistent color, fit, and feel is hard. The packaging industry runs on tight tolerances. A cap that is 0.1mm too loose will fail a brand's quality check. A bottle with a scratch gets thrown out. Packaging for cosmetics, personal care, and household products faces the same operational challenges. High volume. Strict quality. Short lead times. Here is how modern technology helps solve these problems.

Lifting Equipment Operations: Safety Monitoring and IoT-Enabled Maintenance

A tower crane lifts ten tons of steel 50 meters up. A gantry crane in a shipyard moves containers weighing 40 tons. A winch pulls a vehicle onto a flatbed. These operations have one thing in common: failure is not an option. Lifting equipment operates in some of the most demanding environments on earth. Construction sites, shipyards, mines, and warehouses all depend on it. When a crane fails or a sling breaks, the results can be catastrophic. Here is how technology improves safety and uptime.

How to Consolidate Your Azure & Multi-Cloud Monitoring and Avoid Tool Sprawl

This is the eighth blog in our Azure Monitoring series, where we look at a challenge many organizations face as Azure and multi-cloud environments expand: monitoring tool sprawl. What starts as a few monitoring solutions for different needs can turn into disconnected dashboards, duplicate alerts, and fragmented visibility.

What is Network Configuration Management

Many network outages usually start with something as small as a configuration change that nobody logged. One undocumented edit to a firewall or a core switch can lead to the team losing hours working out what changed, on which device, and how to undo it. Across cloud, SD-WAN, and multi-vendor stacks, that guesswork only gets more expensive. Network configuration management takes the guesswork off the table.

DevOps with Kubernetes: How to Reduce Cluster Toil and Complexity

Has Kubernetes made your DevOps team faster, or just busier? Most teams adopt it for speed and portability, and they get both. What arrives with it is a quieter cost: the operational weight of running the cluster day to day. That weight shows up in the manual work the platform was supposed to eliminate. A resource limit set incorrectly can waste infrastructure for months.

Unified Observability: Moving IT Teams from Reactive to Predictive

What does it take to stop an outage before it starts? In many cases, the warning signs are already there, scattered across different monitoring tools, which makes it difficult to see the full picture before issues escalate. When an incident occurs, engineers often spend valuable time piecing together metrics, logs, traces, and alerts to determine the root cause. Every minute spent investigating extends the outage and increases its business impact.
