Dashboards

Back in May, we announced the Kubernetes integration to help users easily monitor and alert on core Kubernetes cluster metrics using the Grafana Agent, our lightweight observability data collector optimized for sending metric, log, and trace data to Grafana Cloud. The integration allows Grafana Cloud users to monitor and alert on Kubernetes cluster metrics. Since the original release, we’ve added new features and enhancements to help our users go even further.

Performance testing is an essential component of building fast and reliable web services. Until recently, this testing typically happened later in the development process and was often performed by a separate team or even a third party. But speed is the competitive advantage for companies, and prioritizing testing during the development process can speed time to market for new applications.

There can be as many as 64 important business metrics for your company to track (according to nTask). That can sound daunting. But if your organization doesn’t have the capacity to track all of them, it should at least track the most important ones according to its business model, stage and focus areas. For example, key product metrics not only provide information to product managers, but also other relevant stakeholders across the organization.

When you’re a sports betting technology company and you realize your in-house, on-prem Graphite solution for monitoring metrics is no longer a sure-thing, what do you do?

As the number of connected gadgets in our homes, offices, and industrial networks continues to grow exponentially, keeping IoT devices secure has become a vital part of our everyday lives. However, our webcams, printers, and smart plugs often lack security features due to their fast time to market, making them particularly vulnerable to attack. And because security metrics themselves can be tricky to assess, tracking IoT device security is increasingly a challenge.
