The Rising Role of AI in Modern Cybersecurity Service Delivery

Cybersecurity is today's most vital aspect of IT service delivery. As threats proliferate in scale, frequency, and sophistication, traditional cyber defense strategies struggle to be sufficient. This is why artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a mere talking point but, rather a move toward needed operational reality.

Beyond Metrics: How We Reimagined Incident Response with RUM

When your monitoring tools and logs tell you everything's fine, but users can't access critical healthcare services, where do you look? Our team discovered that Real User Monitoring (RUM) isn't just for tracking page load times and user journeys – it's a powerful incident response tool that can uncover issues traditional monitoring misses entirely.

How we built agentic incident response

‍ AI already transforms how we detect, respond to, and resolve outages. Traditional workflows often force responders to switch between dashboards, shift through logs, and coordinate across fragmented channels under stress. This reactive, manual approach leads to slower resolution, higher operational costs, and burnout, especially as IT systems grow more complex. ‍ At ilert, we are not just discussing the future of incident management – we are actively building it.

Faster incident response through distributed tracing: Inside Glovo's use of Traces Drilldown

It’s almost 1 p.m. on a Monday afternoon and you’re hungry. You pull up your meal delivery app and select your favorite restaurant and dish. Then you go to check out and nothing happens. Your frustration mounts as you get hungrier by the minute. But there’s frustration on the other side of that transaction as well—engineers are scrambling to figure out what’s wrong as orders drop and revenue losses rise.

Why Modern Incident Response Strategies Need Network and Service Intelligence: Part 2

In Part 1, we explored how aligning network visibility with IT service context empowers faster, smarter incident response. But what does this actually look like? Here in Part 2, we’ll go deeper into the challenges of traditional monitoring approaches, and how teams should look to move from fragmented alerts to unified insights – because when ITOps and NetOps can both see the “what” & “why” of the problem, actions become instinct.

ilert introduces Agentic Incident Response: Entering the AI-first era

Imagine incidents resolved through insights, not manual investigations. ‍ Picture an incident management future where you're never alone during critical alerts. Imagine your best engineer always available, tirelessly investigating issues, analyzing logs, correlating metrics, checking recent code changes, and delivering actionable insights, instantly. Today, ilert is stepping boldly into this future with our first intelligent agent: ilert Responder.

How Continuous Threat Simulation is Reshaping IT Incident Response Playbooks

Imagine this: It's 2 a.m. and your phone buzzes with an urgent alert-your company's systems are under attack. The team scrambles to follow the incident response playbook, but something's off. The scenario unfolding doesn't quite match the plan. Key people aren't sure of their roles. Hours go by. The damage grows. This kind of chaos is all too common, and it highlights a major problem: traditional incident response playbooks just aren't built for today's fast-changing threat landscape.

How to send alerts from Grafana OSS to Grafana Cloud IRM

In March, we announced that Grafana OnCall (OSS) had entered maintenance mode. However, OnCall’s development continues in Grafana Cloud as Grafana Cloud IRM, combining on-call management and incident response into one integrated solution. Many users told us they still want to self-host Grafana and rely on Grafana Alerting to detect potential issues early—but they also need to escalate and manage incidents using an incident response management (IRM) solution.

Rollbar and ilert: Real-time error monitoring meets smart incident response

We’re excited to share that Rollbar is now part of the ilert integration catalog! This new technical partnership allows software teams to detect application errors in real time with Rollbar and instantly respond using ilert’s powerful alerting and incident management features.

Customize your incident response with new features in Grafana Cloud IRM

No matter where or how you work, we all have the same goal when an incident occurs: to get it resolved effectively and efficiently—and as quickly as possible. However, the way we achieve that goal isn’t always the same. We understand that different organizations operate differently, so you need flexibility from your IRM tooling.
