Monitoring Solr is very critical because it handles the search and analysis of data in your application. Similifying this monitoring is necessary to gain full visibility into Solr’s availability and ensure it is performing as expectedn. We’ll show you how to do this using the jmxreceiver for the OpenTelemetry collector. You can utilize this receiver in conjunction with any OTel collector: including the OpenTelemetry Collector and observIQ’s distribution of the collector.

When we say “logs” we really mean any kind of time-series data: events, social media, you name it. See Jordan Sissel’s definition of time + data. And when we talk about autoscaling, what we really want is a hands-off approach at handling Elasticsearch/OpenSearch clusters. In this post, we’ll show you how to use a Kubernetes Operator to autoscale Elasticsearch clusters, going through the following with just a few commands.

A SIEM (Security Information Event Management) platform, along with several other tools that make you crave Alphabet Soup (XDR, UBA, NDR, etc), is a critical component of any organization’s security infrastructure. Between a constantly growing volume of logs, increasing attacks and breaches, and challenges finding qualified staff, many organizations may consider a SIEM migration. There could be several reasons for this.

OpenTracing was an open-source project developed to provide vendor-neutral APIs and instrumentation for distributed tracing across a variety of environments. As it is often extremely difficult for engineers to see the behaviour of requests when they are working across services in a distributed environment, OpenTracing aimed to provide a solution to heighten observability.

InfoSec, like any other aspect of IT, is a matter of three factors coming together: people, process and technology. All of these factors cost time and money in some way. The truth is, there are very few organizations out there who can supply their own security programs, staff, technology, processes and everything needed for InfoSec to an efficient degree. Everyone has to compromise in some way.

If you asked your engineering team how well they can handle all of the security and observability data they’re managing, would you get a resounding “Yeah boss, we’re good to go!” in response? Possible, but unlikely. Chances are they feel like they’re stuck on a boat that’s taking on water, spending their day using tiny buckets to scoop some of it out, with no way to plug any of the leaks.
