Skills vs. MCP: You're probably reaching for the wrong one

Mar 4, 2026 By David Girvin In Sumo Logic

Everyone is adding Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to everything right now. And I get it. MCP is clean. It’s standardized.

5 Essential Capabilities that Make Coralogix an Observability Powerhouse

Mar 3, 2026 By Jonny Steiner In Coralogix

Sometimes observability can feel like a second job. With many traditional tools, users must become experts in a proprietary language to ask a simple question.

System Datasets: From Alert Fatigue to Optimized Notifications

Mar 2, 2026 By Coralogix In Coralogix

Alert fatigue rarely begins as a single mistake. It grows as systems scale, teams grow, and “just in case” monitoring becomes the default. A few extra alerts, another threshold, and soon the on-call channel becomes overwhelmed. Engineers get interrupted for noise or stop trusting pages; either way, real signals get missed. Reliability drops, and productivity quietly declines. Most teams respond tactically: tune thresholds, change notifications, suppress noise.
