As we wrap up an incredible year, it’s the perfect time to celebrate Cribl’s progress and innovation in 2024! This year brought many exciting features designed to solve real-world problems and make life easier for our customers. In the spirit of reflection and festivity, I’ll highlight twelve game-changing product features, releases, and enhancements— each a testament to listening, learning, and delivering value to you, our users.

As digital applications and infrastructures grow increasingly complex, managing and understanding log data has become increasingly vital in achieving practical observability, enabling organizations to detect, diagnose, and prevent issues across their systems. However, traditional log analysis methods often struggle with the volume and complexities of modern log data in cloud-native environments.

Sentry is committed to helping developers fix broken code quickly and effectively. In this article, we’ll cover a range of intermediate to advanced techniques for debugging Python code using VS Code and the Sentry Python SDK.

DX Operational Observability (DX O2) from Broadcom supports ingestion and retention of OpenTelemetry (OTel) data. Teams who have instrumented applications with OpenTelemetry SDKs and APIs can now ingest telemetry into DX O2 using the OpenTelemetry Collector, a core component of OpenTelemetry, and the OTel Collector Exporter, which is now available through early access in DX O2.

We’re excited to announce Coroot v1.6, packed with major improvements and new features to make observability even better! Here’s what’s new.

2024 was a year of making connections. The open source community gathered in person for GrafanaCON for the first time in five years — meeting in Amsterdam to celebrate Grafana 11, Loki 3.0, a new open source project (cue Grafana Alloy), and more. TailCtrl, an early-stage company that specializes in adaptive trace sampling, joined Grafana Labs to advance our Adaptive Telemetry story (welcome, founder Sean Porter!).

Dawid Dębowski is a software engineer at G2A.COM and a Grafana Champion. Holding an MS of Computer Science, Dawid’s main fields of interest related to observability are PromQL and data visualizations using Grafana. Have you ever created an awesome query in PromQL, expecting it to return the exact results you’re looking for, only to receive the “No data” response when you run it? If so, you might have fallen into the trap of PromQL vector matching.

Choosing between Kubernetes and Docker Swarm depends on your project's scale, complexity, and specific container orchestration needs.

Use Grafana variables to create dynamic, interactive dashboards that fit your data, making monitoring easier and more precise!
