GitKraken knows that software development relies on efficiently coordinating with your A-Team. That is why we’ve added a pull requests section, more repo information to GitKraken Workspaces and a new way to organize and share them with your teams in GitKraken Client! As Mr. Keif would say: I pity the tool that doesn’t have the incredible team features included in GitKraken Client v8.4!

As most developers know, alert-fatigue is real, and the last thing you want is another feed of notifications. Read on to learn how the new Alert Details view helps you filter out notifications for Issue Alerts you don’t care about, and how it can help you focus on the ones that do. When you get started with Sentry, you’ll likely create an Alert for every Issue.

Datadog Events provides customers with a data feed about their infrastructure and applications, delivering an up-to-the-minute history of activity such as code deployments, configuration changes, and triggered alerts.

I’m very excited to tell you all about the latest Grafana Loki installment, 2.5! A huge amount of work, nearly 500 PRs, has gone into Loki between v2.4 and now. The major themes for this release are improved performance, continuing ease of operations, and more ways to ingest your logs. I usually find myself the most excited about performance improvements, so let’s start there.

Freshdesk is a cloud-based customer service platform used by enterprises that provides a centralized help desk(with the help of support tickets) across multiple channels, including email, phone, chat, and social media.

We’re excited to announce that Upsun now offers OpenSearch as a service available and included on all plans. OpenSearch is a distributed RESTful search and analytics engine you can use for log analytics, a search backend, clickstream analytics, and more. With the recent move by ElasticSearch to switch to a licensing model, it was important for us to propose a strong open source alternative. And OpenSearch is completely open source, so you could run and manage it on your own.

StatusGator status pages are a unique way to consolidate the status of all of your vendors on a single page. Reduce support ticket volume by publishing your status page to your team or users. Now you can publish a message to the top of your status page for even more effective communication. Use this space for maintenance notifications, highlighting critical outages, or explaining your page to your users.

One year ago we launched what would become our most popular feature yet: a page you could publish with your name and logo that aggregated the status of all of your cloud vendors. We called it a “public dashboard” because it did not require a StatusGator account to view, and it published your StatusGator dashboard for your entire team. We’ve now renamed this feature a “status page” and made it even more accessible inside of StatusGator. Why the change? Read on.

In our ongoing efforts to provide our customers with a best-in-class log management solution, we’re excited to launch improvements to our Agent.
