Today, Logz.io is thrilled to announce that Prometheus-as-a-service is now generally available for anyone to try themselves! I’d like to thank the Logz.io village for executing a huge milestone on our quest to unify the best open source monitoring tools on Logz.io’s scalable cloud platform.

I’m a fresh starter here at Grafana Labs, leading one of our teams working on the Grafana Enterprise Stack. As a longtime user of Grafana, I couldn’t wait to see what’s new in versions 1.1 and 1.2 of Grafana Enterprise Metrics (GEM), our scalable, self-hosted Prometheus service. I tried out the shiny features and wanted to share some of the cool things I found.

This week we released Skylight version 5.0, which represents a major undertaking that has involved every person at Tilde and every part of our ever-growing stack. In addition to major internal refactors, this release also modernizes our native Rust code, and introduces Skylight's newest feature, Source Locations.

I imagine everyone is long since tired and bored with their Loki 2.1 end of year/holiday gift, so I’m here today to bring some really exciting news. Loki 2.2 is released!!! New to Loki? Want a refresher? Owen Diehl and I did a webinar not long ago. Check out the on-demand video for a good overview of what Loki is capable of in 2021! Lots of new features are in this release, but worth celebrating in particular is that the single most requested feature for Loki has been added!

What’s New in Ivanti Device & Application Control 5.3 Nearly every company in the world incorporates a Mac endpoint into the organization. Without a device control solution to manage these stations we see a real possibility for data leakage risk. This loss happens mainly because of insider threats. Ivanti Device and Application Control has historically performed well protecting our customers against these types of threats, but the Mac endpoints can still represent a risk.

We’re excited to announce a new set of updates and enhancements to the PagerDuty platform! These updates are designed to help organizations accelerate cloud migration, provide premium levels of customer service, streamline collaboration and communication, and deliver a seamless customer experience in the moments that matter most.

Over a year ago we decided to invest heavily in Application Observability, understanding the modern observability platform must unite logs, metrics, and traces in one analytics layer to better serve reliability use cases. We have also advocated a modern trend to acquire tracing data via open source industry standards like OpenTelemetry without vendor lock-in.

The world of work looks vastly different than it did one year ago. Where we work and how we work have been decoupled and many of these changes are here to stay. Creating a great employee experience has become a key competitive differentiator and extends beyond HR into legal, workplace services, and more.

This week marks one year since ServiceNow sent employees home to shelter in place. During that year, the world changed and the demands and expectations of our customers forever changed with it. I’m proud that ServiceNow was there to help our customers survive and thrive.
