Hybrid IT environments are the reality for most organizations today. Unfortunately, they’re also one of the biggest reasons outages are now harder to prevent. Between on-prem infrastructure, cloud services, SaaS platforms, distributed networks, and modern applications, IT teams are managing an ecosystem of dependencies that changes constantly.

Charts in Netdata have always been interactive. You can zoom, pan, select time ranges, and see per-second granularity across thousands of metrics. But when you spotted something interesting, the next steps usually meant leaving the chart: opening another tab to check a related metric, navigating to the correlation tool, or pulling up a different time range for comparison. The investigation workflow lived outside the chart, even though the chart was where the investigation started.

For today's modern businesses, the data landscape demands security and flexibility. You need to connect your observability platform to rich, proprietary datasets that often reside in private networks without compromising security or managing complex network infrastructure. You may also face an extra layer of complexity in order to effectively query and visualize that data. Luckily, modern artificial intelligence tools have made these previously complicated processes much simpler.

Our Q1 momentum has been focused on a simple goal: making InfluxDB easier to operate, easier to scale, and faster to put to work. Across Telegraf, InfluxDB 3, and our managed offerings, these updates reduce friction in how teams collect, process, and scale time series workloads.

The Atlassian Rovo Model Context Protocol MCP Server now supports Bitbucket Cloud. AI clients like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and VS Code can now browse repositories, create commits, open pull requests, and check pipeline results, all through the same secure MCP connection that already works with Jira and Confluence.

Over the past few months, we’ve been making the Kentik platform easier to use and more actionable, with AI increasingly at the center of how teams interact with it. AI Advisor sits near the middle of a lot of that progress, but this is not only an AI story.
