Your Next Observability RFP is All Wrong. Why AI Changes Everything

AI-first observability addresses two of the most pressing troubleshooting challenges: complex IT environments and AI-generated code. But understanding how to implement AI in a way that brings ROI, requires cutting through the hype and maintaining realistic expectations, while keeping a forward-thinking vision. In this blog post, we bring practical tips for including AI in your next observability RFP. The article is based on a webinar held with Logz.io founders, CEO Tomer Levy and CTO Asaf Yigal.

The one where we talk about Cribl Guard

Manual hunts for sensitive data are slow, error-prone, and expensive. Cribl Guard combines advanced AI with a human-in-the-loop control point to spot sensitive data, such as credit card, passport, and Social Security numbers, as it flows through Cribl Stream. Whether you’re fully cloud or hybrid, Cribl Guard puts you firmly in control of every piece of sensitive information that crosses your pipes.

OpenTelemetry Logs - A Complete Introduction & Implementation

OpenTelemetry is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation(CNCF) incubating project aimed at standardizing the way we instrument applications for generating telemetry data(logs, metrics, and traces). OpenTelemetry aims to provide a vendor-agnostic observability framework that provides a set of tools, APIs, and SDKs to instrument applications.

Elastic Cloud Serverless on Google Cloud doubles region availability

We’re pleased to announce the availability of Elastic Cloud Serverless on Google Cloud in three new regions: This doubles the number of available regions on Google Cloud and dramatically increases serverless deployment options in the US. Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale observability, security, and search solutions without managing infrastructure.

Cribl.Cloud Government Is a New Era of Secure Cloud Telemetry for Federal Agencies

As a Co-founder and CPO at Cribl, I'm genuinely stoked that our new federal suite, Cribl.Cloud Government, has achieved an “In Process” designation under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). This isn’t any old milestone. We’re bringing all of Cribl’s kickass capabilities to government agencies, even those that require the strictest compliance and security standards. Because, who doesn’t love a good set of rules?

Cribl.Cloud Goes to Washington: Cribl.Cloud Government FedRAMP Authority to Operate Milestone

Way back in 2009, when I was serving as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army, I worked in a network operations center for a deployed Army unit. Our mission was to provide network connectivity across central and northern Iraq. Our observability tools were incredibly limited. We had a network map that would turn nodes and network links red, yellow, and green when they were up or down. We had to write down in a physical logbook any status changes and what we did about them.
