The first person to coin the term “Artificial Intelligence” predicted that someday people would buy software as a utility. The year was 1961 and that person was Professor John McCarthy, a computer scientist at Stanford University. After Salesforce began selling software programs this way in the late-1990s, the good professor witnessed his prophecy come true for over 12 years before his passing in 2011. Yet this is only one aspect of computing in the cloud as we know it today.

We recently introduced the LogicMonitor Exporter which is now a part of OpenTelelemetry Collector Contrib distro. This allows you to bring your collector for streaming telemetry data from your environment to LM Envision, LogicMonitor’s hybrid and multi-cloud monitoring platform.

Monitoring tools, also known as observability solutions, are designed to track the status of critical IT applications, networks, infrastructures, websites and more. The best IT monitoring tools quickly detect problems in resources and alert the right respondents to resolve critical issues. Response teams use observability solutions to gain real-time insights into resource availability, stability and performance.

Managers often ask engineers what the breaking point of an application is, requiring accurate insights into the max throughput.

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the adoption of cloud-native technologies and practices. Established in 2015 as a part of the Linux Foundation, the CNCF has become a prominent open-source organization that aims to develop a standardized and vendor-neutral cloud-native stack. The CNCF seeks to enable the use of cloud-native computing for building scalable and resilient applications in dynamic environments.

As one of the most popular open-source Kubernetes monitoring solutions, Prometheus leverages a multidimensional data model of time-stamped metric data and labels. The platform uses a pull-based architecture to collect metrics from various targets. It stores the metrics in a time-series database and provides the powerful PromQL query language for efficient analysis and data visualization.
