Back in June, we announced the Public Beta for Logz.io’s New Lookz – which is a new UI that completely changes the way users navigate across Logz.io products and features. The Public Beta gave users the option to toggle between the old and new UIs to see which one they liked better. And the answer from our users was as clear as it could be.

The Cloud Monitoring Console (CMC) lets Splunk Cloud Platform administrators view information about the status of a Splunk Cloud Platform deployment. For workload pricing, the CMC lets you monitor usage and stay within your subscription entitlement. From the CMC you can see both ingest and SVC usage information and can gain insight into how your Splunk Cloud Platform deployment is performing.

A Splunk Virtual Compute (SVC) unit is a powerful component of our workload pricing model. Historically, we priced purely on the amount of data sent into Splunk, leading some customers to limit data ingestion to avoid expense related to high volumes of data with low requirements on reporting. With Splunk workload pricing, you now have ultimate flexibility and control over your data and cost.

If you’re a DevOps practitioner working in a Microsoft-centric environment, you’ll be pleased to learn that Logz.io recently added support for the popular Teams communications hub to help broadcast pressing alerts and other monitoring data. The integration comes on the heels of making the Logz.io platform directly available from within the Azure Console and expands organizations’ abilities to communicate and share notifications about everything from log data to security events.

Arm-based Kubernetes clusters have been in use for a while, albeit mostly for niche uses, by enthusiasts, and DIY hobbyists. But that is changing. Arm architecture offers an efficiency and scalability that other architectures do not, and that makes it appealing to businesses.

We are pleased to announce the general availability of the Google Cloud Private Service Connect integration with Elastic Cloud. Elastic Cloud VPC connectivity is now available to all customers across all subscription tiers and cloud providers (AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud).
