Patching has become a race against time. As cyberthreats move from disclosure to exploitation faster than ever, IT and security teams need a smarter approach to vulnerability remediation. Watch this Patch Management Masterclass to learn how to build a risk-based patching strategy, streamline patch management across Windows, macOS, Linux, and third-party applications, and implement a closed-loop remediation process that verifies issues are resolved.

The Grafana Mobile App lets you triage alerts with help from Assistant from your phone. You can declare an incident or trigger an investigation into an incident in order to get more information so that by the time you get to your desktop, everything is ready for you. Grafanistas Ignacio and Florian go through a use case deep dive, demonstrating the value of the Grafana Mobile Companion app by triggering an investigation, talk to Assistant, and have all the data you need to resolve an incident - all from your phone.

A walkthrough of monitoring a distributed fleet with Netdata, using a simulated fleet of about 1,000 devices spread across regions. We show how the whole fleet reports into a single view: per-second metrics from every node, grouping by region and by customer, a map view that colors each device by health, filtering and saved views for different teams, and an AI-assisted investigation that scans the fleet for anomalies and points to likely causes.

Netdata now supports distributed tracing. In this webinar, we'll demo the new tracing capabilities for the first time: OpenTelemetry trace ingestion, the new tracing dashboard, and the UI built to let you move from a metric anomaly to the exact span that caused it. For years, teams have asked us to close the gap between infrastructure monitoring and application performance. This release does that. Netdata can now ingest traces via OTEL, correlate them with the metrics and logs you already collect, and surface them in a purpose-built interface designed for speed and clarity.

Our Director of Engineering on why watching an agent's raw text log doesn't work, and why Kepler now shows you a graph instead.

When people say "document everything," they don't mean literally everything — they mean document what matters. Nobody needs to know the exact kernel version on a server build years from now. What they need is the process: how to get there again, step by step. Watch the full IT Leadership Lab session — linked above.

Your infrastructure lives everywhere. Your view of it shouldn't. Civo CTO Dinesh Majrekar gives the first look at the new Civo dashboard. It's built around one idea: however many regions, clusters or environments you run, managing them should feel like one cloud. Civo makes complexity a thing of the past.
