Over the past several years, one topic that has become of increasing importance for DevOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) teams is AIOps. Artificial intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) is the application of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and analytics to improve the day-to-day operational work for IT operations teams.

In this live stream discussion, angel investor Ross Haleliuk joins Cribl’s Ed Bailey to make a big announcement about his new fund to shape the future of the cybersecurity industry.

Managing observability data can feel like a juggling act. Modern cloud applications generate vast amounts of data, and quickly accessing the most important data is a fundamental step toward quickly gaining unobstructed visibility into your infrastructure and applications. Yet, when data volumes grow, complexity follows. Many observability users find it overwhelming to assess the critical data generated from their complex infrastructure and applications.

The observability landscape is changing fast, as organizations look to deploy applications and separate themselves from competition at a breakneck pace. What are the trends organizations need to be aware of as they make sense of the landscape? Every year, we at Logz.io set out to answer this question by going right to the DevOps and observability practitioners on the front lines.

Poorly designed infrastructure leaves your applications and networks vulnerable to cyberattacks and data breaches. This puts the company at significant risk: the average cost of a data breach reached a record high $4.35 million in 2022. This is where companies bring in platform engineers.
