With a comprehensive view into application health and availability, APM can do things like: Both the importance and the usage of APM has grown in recent years. That’s because companies rely on increasingly complex applications to run their businesses. Here is what you need to know about Application Performance Monitoring.

Elastic® SQL inputs (metricbeat module and input package) allows the user to execute SQL queries against many supported databases in a flexible way and ingest the resulting metrics to Elasticsearch®. This blog dives into the functionality of generic SQL and provides various use cases for advanced users to ingest custom metrics to Elastic®, for database observability. The blog also introduces the fetch from all database new capability, released in 8.10.

The challenge for every organization is gathering actionable observability information from all your systems, in a timely manner, without creating a substantial operational burden for the teams managing the collection tooling. While each observability solution has its unique benefits and challenges, the one common burden expressed by teams is the management of the metadata of the metrics, traces, and logs.

Do you want to build software faster and release it more often without the risks of negatively impacting your user experience? Imagine a world where there is not only less fear around testing and releasing in production, but one where it becomes routine. That is the world of feature flags.
