Introducing MetricFire Logging: Visualize Logs Alongside Metrics

As modern infrastructure grows more dynamic and distributed, collecting logs alongside metrics becomes a critical part of any observability strategy. To make this easy and powerful, MetricFire now supports a direct logging pipeline using Grafana Loki. This allows you to forward system logs from your servers to Hosted Graphite's Loki backend and visualize them in your Hosted Grafana dashboards with full control over queries, filtering, and alerting.

Coralogix Expands AWS Partnership to Deliver AI-Driven Observability and Edge Threat Detection

Coralogix is proud to announce a new phase in its partnership with AWS through a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) focused on bringing AI-powered observability and security to the enterprise. At the heart of this collaboration is Amazon Bedrock, AWS’s managed service for foundation models.

APM best practices: Dos and don'ts guide for practitioners

Application performance management (APM) is the practice of regularly tracking, measuring, and analyzing the performance and availability of software applications. APM helps you get visibility into complex microservices environments, which can overwhelm site reliability engineering (SRE) teams. The generated insights create an optimal user experience and achieve desired business outcomes.

Introducing the Coralogix Operator for Kubernetes

As organizations begin to scale their observability strategy, point and click methods of management become increasingly unworkable. This is why Coralogix has now fully released the Coralogix Operator for Kubernetes. Kubernetes operators are control loops that allow users to declare their desired state in their Kubernetes clusters, and the operator is responsible for resolving this state.

Coralogix launches OpenAPI endpoints

Observability is about much more than dashboards and alerts. Extensible platforms that integrate into the user’s tech stack are fundamental parts of a great developer experience. This is why Coralogix has supported gRPC APIs for account management, data ingress & query, alert definition, dashboard creation, permissions management and more. Today, Coralogix adds a new integration, with the launch of OpenAPI endpoints for all existing functionality.

Enhanced monitoring of Amazon EKS with Elastic add-on capabilities

Easily enable Elastic add-on within the Amazon EKS Console for streamlined monitoring and quick data onboarding. Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) makes running Kubernetes on AWS simple and scalable. But as your workloads grow, so does the need for robust monitoring and observability. Enter Elastic Agent, a powerful, unified way to collect logs, metrics, and security data from your EKS clusters, all managed through Elastic Fleet.

Logging in Docker Swarm: Visibility Across Distributed Services

Docker Swarm's logging model shifts from individual container logs to service-level aggregation. The docker service logs command batch-retrieves logs present at the time of execution, pulling data from all containers that belong to a service across your cluster. This approach gives you a unified view of distributed applications, but it comes with its patterns and considerations for effective observability.

Do you Grok It?

Most people are probably familiar with the word “grok” from Robert A. Heinlein’s novel A Stranger in a Strange Land, in which it is used to describe a deep, almost mystical understanding of something. ‍ Grok is also the name of a plugin for LogStash that enables you to parse and analyze log data using a syntax similar to regular expressions, but specialized for various log formats and fields.
