I had the opportunity to present with Michael Fratto, Senior Research Analyst at S&P Global Market Intelligence, at a virtual event hosted by Redmond. We discussed how telemetry pipelines are critical in controlling telemetry data (logs, metrics, events, and traces). Mike shared excellent insights from his recent research survey that discussed the proliferation of observability tools in enterprises and the challenges organizations face in managing those tools. ‍

In the ever-growing world of cloud computing, efficient log analysis is crucial for maintaining application health, debugging issues, and ensuring security. While traditional approaches often involve dedicated servers or complex infrastructure, AWS Lambda offers a serverless alternative for log analysis with significant benefits.

So, your company uses LLMs? You’re not the only ones. A survey by Gartner in October 2023 revealed that 55% of organizations were piloting or releasing generative AI projects, and it’s safe to assume that this number has increased since that survey was published. From personalized recommendations in e-commerce, to automated grading in education and fraud detection in finance, LLMs have helped many organizations level up.
