3 a.m., the pager fires, and the runbook describes a service that shipped three versions ago. Ask the agent what the cluster actually has instead. Runbooks go stale because clusters change faster than documentation does. Every deploy, every new service, every renamed alert widens the gap between what is running and what is written down.

Getting Graylog up and running does not have to take hours of configuration work. In this session, Graylog Director of Technical Marketing Jeff Darrington walks through a complete installation using Docker Compose, taking you from a blank environment to a fully functioning log management platform with live data ingestion in under an hour.

1,133 requests failed on one bad commit. The patch and the regression test are already written by the time anyone is asked to read the exact diff. This demo runs AURA as one step inside a Temporal workflow, alongside Codex. A GET request against a product catalog service goes from success to HTTP 500, and ClickHouse records the version, commit, trace ID, and exact error for every request. By the time AURA investigates, all 1,133 requests on that version have failed.

On this episode of Masters of Data, we dig into what happens when AI actually delivers on its promise to eliminate busywork, and explore why removing the toil doesn't feel like the win everyone expected. We make the case that repetitive tasks build the intuition, pattern recognition, and muscle memory people need to do the harder work well. Security and engineering leaders rethinking how much triage and busywork to hand off to AI will find plenty to chew on here, especially anyone staring down a task list where every single item feels like the hardest one.

Your competitive edge isn't the model; it's the data that only you have. Sonal Pardeshi, Head of AI Product at Splunk, explains why teams building on general-purpose models keep arriving at the same generic outcomes, and what changes when agents are grounded in your own machine data and your own governance. AI Toolkit and Agent Launchpad let teams build and run agents against your grounded data.
