OpAMP for OpenTelemetry: Managing Collector Fleets and Introducing the New OpAMP Gateway Extension

Today, Bindplane is launching the OpAMP Gateway Extension in alpha — a new component that extends OpAMP fleet management into network-segmented and firewalled environments where direct agent-to-server connectivity is not possible. It also addresses fleet scaling by fanning many agent connections into a small upstream pool, reducing connection load on the OpAMP server. We also hope to donate the OpAMP Gateway Extension upstream to the OpenTelemetry project and welcome community contributions.

Mastering the Diagnostic pivot from Health Policy to Pod

In the world of modern microservices, scale is a necessary challenge. Enterprise service inventories start modestly with a handful of components, only to balloon to hundreds over time. Traditional monitoring approaches cannot support that weight. The more organizations build, the more work they create, often only to keep systems running.

Log Correlation for Security and Performance Monitoring

International travel comes with amazing sights, cultural experiences, and local delicacies. However, most travelers know that it comes with differing economies that impact a money’s value and various currencies. When people need cash, they have to translate the money in their wallets to the local currency, which means different coins and bills. Depending on the exchange rate, the currency’s value can change as the person moves from one country to another.

The future of Search is here: Faster, simpler, AI-driven

Do more with less. That’s the mandate we’re all hearing. AI has fundamentally changed how we work. Modern AI workloads generate 10-100x more queries than humans ever could, pushing legacy architectures past performance limits. And the audacity of it all? Legacy logging vendors continue to raise costs without delivering meaningful innovation. IT and security teams are still forced to choose between speed and retention. Investigations are still slow. Data onboarding is still painful.

Unleashing Resilience: Why the Agentic Era Demands a Unified Data Fabric

Imagine starting your day with a dozen disconnected apps where your calendar does not sync with your reminders, your maps do not know your appointments, and your contacts are not linked to your messages. You would constantly be scrambling, missing key details, and reacting late to what matters most. In our personal lives, we depend on tight integration to keep pace with the world. In business, the stakes are even higher.

Navigating Machine Data at Infinite Scale: Why the Modern Enterprise Demands a New Data Architecture

In the modern enterprise, data is no longer just a byproduct of business; it is the lifeblood. However, we have moved beyond the era of simple transactional data. We are now living in the age of machine data.

Olly for SREs: 3 ways I actually use it in production

There’s a moment after an alert where you’re not fixing anything yet. You’re trying to answer a much simpler question: Is it actually down? Sometimes it’s obvious. Sometimes it’s 20 alerts at once with no clear starting point. Sometimes it’s a small upstream degradation that might cascade. Sometimes it’s just a spike that resolves on its own. That first phase is orientation. Is the signal real or transient? Is it isolated or spreading? Root cause or symptom?
