Use This OTel Processor to Prevent Your Dashboards From Breaking

A semantic-convention rename (http.method → http.request.method) can silently break your RED metrics — no errors, just gaps in dashboards and alerts. The OpenTelemetry Collector's schema processor fixes it: put it first in your pipeline and it normalizes attribute names no matter what each service emits. Migration mode writes BOTH the old and new names, so you get zero-downtime upgrades while queries keep working.

Balance AI innovation and governance with Sumo Logic AI and ML apps

AI is changing how teams work. Developers are generating code faster, security teams are automating investigations, and employees across the business are using AI tools to accelerate research, content creation, and decision-making. But this adoption comes with a catch. As usage explodes, it introduces a new set of security risks: a rapidly expanding attack surface, faster attack timelines, potential data exposure, and an alarming lack of visibility into how these tools are being used.
