Graylog Illuminate for authentication is a brand new offering designed by our Enterprise Intelligence team. It eliminates the manual setup necessary to detect, monitor, and analyze authentication activities and issues across your IT infrastructure by providing pre-built Dashboards, Alerts, and data enrichment. Initially, Graylog Illuminate for Authentication will address Windows authentication issues and activities. We will release additional data sources in the coming weeks so stay tuned!

Graylog is an advanced log management system, capable of ingesting all of your corporate logs into a central repository for easy searching and analysis of your data.

Last week, the first OpenObservability conference took place. This event had amazing content contributions from open source project leaders, users, and influencers. We’ve seen massive growth and adoption in the open source observability space from the inspiring work being done across tracing, logging, and especially metrics. The new data stores and capabilities are growing at breakneck speed. There are more choices— yet more complexity—than ever before.

At STRABAG, we are using Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) for two main use cases within our on-premises web applications. One to power different kinds of search and a second for operations where we ship more than 25,000 log entries per minute to Elastic from our load balancers. The ECE platform runs in an air-gapped environment, and we would still like to be able to use our corporate logins for the ECE platform.

We're happy to announce that we have just launched our improved integration for the Azure Event Hub, allowing DevOps & Security professionals to send log data for analysis easier than ever. This announcement comes as Microsoft’s Azure Event Hub reaches its highest global popularity as a data ingestion service. The integration ensures best-in-class performance across a variety of use cases using Azure.
