How ELSER Transforms One Keyword into Better Search Results

In this session, we’ll show you how Elastic's ELSER takes a single token like _“Terminator”_ and expands it into semantically related terms such as _software, alien, computer technology,_ and _Connor_ (for John Connor). This makes search results more relevant, even when the exact keyword isn’t used.

How to Monitor NVIDIA GPU Metrics with Cribl Edge & Stream (Complete Tutorial)

If you’re running AI, ML, or data-intensive workloads on GPUs, monitoring their performance is critical. Overheating, under-utilization, or memory bottlenecks can cost you thousands in cloud bills and potential downtime. This guide walks you through collecting real-time GPU telemetry using nvidia-smi, sending it to Cribl Edge, routing it through Cribl Stream, and using Cribl Search to analyze the data—step by step.

What Is Log Monitoring (and Why IT Teams Are Shifting to Log Intelligence)

Your infrastructure isn’t confined to a single location anymore. It’s spread across clouds, containers, and on-prem systems, and every layer is spitting out logs: access attempts, performance spikes, error codes, config changes. That data is invaluable if you can find the signal in the noise. But with millions of logs flying by every day, that’s easier said than done.

What Is Semantic Intent? Interpreting User Intent in AI Search [Quick Question Ep. 4]

What is semantic intent, and why is it crucial in the age of *AI search?* In this episode of Quick Question, we break down how semantic *intent interprets* the meaning behind your query in semantic search. About Elastic Elastic, the Search AI Company, enables everyone to find the answers they need in real time, using all their data, at scale. Elastic’s solutions for search, observability, and security are built on the Elastic Search AI Platform — the development platform used by thousands of companies, including more than 50% of the Fortune 500.

Beyond the Pipeline: Data Isn't Oil, It's Power.

Originally published on Medium, this piece by Winston Hearn dives into a philosophical discussion on why the "data is oil" metaphor is no longer serving the tech industry. Hearn argues that by reframing our thinking to "data is power," we can better understand and manage today's complex data systems. ‍ For more than a decade, we in the tech industry have referenced a common metaphor: data is the new oil. It’s a concept that’s easy to grasp.

RUM measurements: Start with the data, discover the story

When something breaks in your application, a slow page, a spike in errors, or a drop in engagement, the typical response is to chase the symptoms. But what if we flipped that process? What if we started not from user complaints, but from actual performance measurements, collected from real sessions in real time? That’s exactly the idea behind Coralogix RUM Measurements.

How To Use Alloy and Hosted Graphite's Loki to Store and Visualize Logs

In a modern DevOps environment, having just metrics or just logs is like trying to navigate with half a map because you’re missing important context that makes decisions faster and smarter. Metrics tell you what is happening (CPU spikes, request rates, failed logins) but logs tell you why it’s happening, with the timestamps to prove it.

Introducing Logz.io Open 360 AI: The Next Generation of Observability Is Here

Traditional observability tools can’t keep up with modern complexity. Dashboard and alert-based approaches still rely heavily on manual processes, resulting in longer troubleshooting cycles, slower decisions, and higher MTTR. Engineering teams need something better. Today we’re launching Open 360 AI, the first observability platform designed for both humans and AI agents working together.
