Getting the Most Out of Python with SolarWinds Loggly

An audit and error trail is one of the core pillars of a well-designed software application, regardless of the programming language used to build it. This trail typically comes in the form of logging. When your application produces useful, rich logs, you are better equipped to successfully maintain a production-grade system and troubleshoot any issues that might arise. When it comes to distributed Python applications, having correlated logs for each system is important for debugging.

Enhancing Alerts with AI: Leveraging Amazon Bedrock and LLM's for Graylog

In this talk, we’ll explore the cutting-edge work InfusionPoints has done to process and enrich alerts from Graylog using Amazon Bedrock and advanced Large Language Models (LLMs) from Amazon Titan and Anthropic. Discover how we’ve harnessed the power of AI to elevate the accuracy, relevance, and actionable insights of our security alerts, transforming how we respond to potential threats.

Reducing Risk by Prioritizing Use Case Development

The session is really about customers spending their resources wisely, prioritizing use case development based on blind spots, weaknesses, or maybe even just plain audit findings. We have all been guilty in the past of spending a lot of time building clever use cases just for them to never fire or not work out the way we’d hoped; this talk is aimed at highlighting this issue and teach users to focus their resources and build a strategy for development like any other process they would internally.

About us - Sumo Logic

A log on its own is pretty simple, but they're rarely alone. Your digital applications, infrastructure and AI keep adding another, and another, and another… For some teams, this exponential data is overwhelming, causing friction, bottlenecks, and even tuning it all out. But at Sumo Logic, we’re FUELED by the atomic level of logs. The Sumo Logic Log Analytics Platform ingests each and every bit of this structured and unstructured “data exhaust,” transforming it into critical fuel for context-driven insights into your performance, availability, security status, and threats.

Is Your Telemetry Data Strategy Ready for the Next Decade?

What worked for the last 10 years won’t work for the next 10. IT and Security teams face three big challenges with telemetry data: Volume: Telemetry data is growing at a 28% CAGR, while budgets remain flat. Compliance requirements demand retaining massive datasets, straining both storage and costs. Variety: Logs, metrics, traces, configs—telemetry data comes in all shapes and sizes, making it difficult for traditional analytics tools to handle. Your tech needs to manage this complexity seamlessly.

Best Practices for Troubleshooting a Windows Server Upgrade

To upgrade, or not to upgrade. While that may not have been the question that Hamlet asked, it’s one you might be asking. You already made the mistake of asking Reddit, “should I do an in-place upgrade,” and, as expected, people had Big Opinions. A Windows Server Feature Update offers benefits, like performance and analytics. On the other hand, if you have problems, then your attempts can lead to business downtime and service disruption.

Leveraging AWS Private Image Build for a Compliant Cribl Deployment

In today’s data-driven world, ensuring the security and compliance of your data pipelines is paramount. Cribl Stream and Cribl Edge offer powerful telemetry data management and enrichment solutions. However, deploying these tools within your environment often requires careful consideration of security and compliance standards.

The Leading Synthetic Monitoring Tools

For accurate and effective performance testing, synthetic monitoring has become a staple and this is only going to continue in the coming years. This is mainly due to the fact that this process is beneficial and offers numerous advantages to organizations. With synthetic monitoring, your organization can identify performance issues before they affect real users. By continuously simulating user interactions, your team can highlight and rectify performance bottlenecks and infrastructure issues in real time.
