Application Performance Monitoring (APM) is used to ensure consistent availability, performance, and response times of an application. Websites, mobile applications, and business applications have use cases for monitoring purposes. Although, in the digital world, monitoring use cases expand to the processes, hosts, logs, networks, and end-users including your customers and employees.
Deployment of an application is a significant step for any business. The quicker and better updates you can give to your users, the faster it will be for you to fix issues and introduce new features. With more immediate updates for your application, it is also important to handle the application’s bugs and issues and monitor them. As an entrepreneur, it will require a lot of effort and time, and sometimes it does not even appear to pay off.
Being able to get the big picture and immediately pivot between siloed data is one of the key values Grafana Cloud provides. Our composable observability platform integrates Prometheus and Graphite metrics, Loki logs, and Tempo traces with Grafana — and also allows you to draw data in from other sources of your choice concurrently.
Personally, I’ve always wanted to contribute to an open-source project, but never found a way to incorporate it with my day-to-day work. Occasionally, I’d muster up the courage to clone a project I liked, seeking a good entry point to add some new feature or handle some issue. I thought that all I needed was to make a small contribution and everything else would just flow into place.
What an exciting episode of OpenObservability Talks it was! On May 27, I hosted Kyle Davis, Senior Developer Advocate for OpenSearch at AWS, for a chat about the OpenSearch project, where it stands and where it’s heading. I wanted to share with you some interesting insights from our chat. You’re more than welcome to check out the full episode.
