Can AI/ML Guide Observability? Tech Talk #6

This talk will examine the application of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in observability. It will cover how AI/ML is being used to monitor systems, detect anomalies, and extract insights from telemetry data. The session will provide information on integrating AI/ML into observability pipelines, improving analytical capabilities, and system performance.

Logz.io Adds PrivateLink Support, Introduces the Parsing Rules Hub, and Significantly Enhances Parsing Capabilities

Today, we’re excited to announce support for AWS PrivateLink, allowing Logz.io customers to securely send logs and metrics through private VPC connectivity, without any data ever hitting the public internet. If you’re running workloads inside a VPC on AWS, this upgrade drastically improves your security posture, simplifies your networking architecture, and – most notably – reduces your data transfer costs (a lot).

Microservices to Monolith, Rebuilding Our Backend in Rust

The following serves as a practical guide for those looking to simplify their architecture by migrating to a Rust monolith. Earlier this year, the platform team at InfluxData undertook a major rewrite of our core account and resource management APIs, moving from Go to Rust and from a microservices architecture to a single monolith. This change supported a new administrative UI for InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated and aligns with our broader effort to rewrite the InfluxDB database engine in Rust.

Your integrated MSP platform is here - announcing the launch of MSP Central!

For MSPs, the daily juggling act of managing multiple tools can be a drain on resources, efficiency, and, ultimately, your bottom line. You need comprehensive visibility, streamlined workflows, and the ability to proactively address client needs—all without the headache of disparate systems. That's why we're excited to announce the launch of MSP Central, your comprehensive, unified platform for streamlined MSP business management.

Fabric Interconnect: Connecting Servers with UCS Hardware

Every IT decision-maker faces a common challenge: balancing operational efficiency with cost control. While software solutions help streamline operations and drive efficiency, they can introduce redundancies into your system. These redundancies strengthen availability through backup systems but often complicate data management, leading to inconsistencies and potential outages. This is where hardware solutions like fabric interconnects prove invaluable.

Introducing AI Agent Monitoring in Sentry

Monitoring agents and LLM applications is... different. Managing everything from tool calls, to model configurations, token usage, and AI systems do their best to solve problems on their own - so errors aren't always clear. Sentry's agent monitoring focuses on making it easy to dive into your AI applications and understand whats breaking, where, so you can fix it faster.

Achieving Full Visibility: Modern Monitoring for Distributed Cloud Applications

Today’s applications are hybrid, cloud-centric, service-oriented, API-dependent, and geographically distributed. The monitoring practices we relied on for decades are no longer sufficient. It is critical to monitor all the internet-centric dependencies, connectivity, and cloud application components – and to do so from the user’s perspective so IT operations teams can achieve digital resilience and deliver performance. This session will cover DEM, APM, and IPM and how they can work together to pinpoint issues before they occur, so users receive a great digital experience.

Introducing AI Agent Monitoring

AI is changing how we build software — but debugging code still comes down to having context. One minute the model’s performance is cruising. The next, you’re hit with a KeyError from a tool you forgot existed, triggered by a model that silently timed out, and a retrieval call that returns... nothing, or 11 “Let me try this a different way" messages before failure. You’re stitching together LLM calls, agents, vector stores, and custom logic. Then hoping it holds up in prod.

Elastic's journey to build Elastic Cloud Serverless

Stateless architecture that auto-scales no matter your data, usage, and performance needs How do you take a stateful, performance-critical system like Elasticsearch and make it serverless? At Elastic, we reimagined everything — from storage to orchestration — to build a truly serverless platform that customers can trust. Elastic Cloud Serverless is a fully managed, cloud-native platform designed to bring the power of Elastic Stack to developers without the operational burden.
