What is agentic AI? (explained in 60 seconds)

Agentic AI is the next evolution of artificial intelligence. Unlike traditional AI, it can act autonomously and make decisions on its own. Here’s what that actually means, without the hype. Additional Resources: 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.

AI NetOps: How AI and Machine Learning Transform Network Operations

AI is changing network operations (NetOps) from static automation into adaptive, data-driven systems that can summarize incidents, retrieve knowledge, and guide remediation with human oversight. In this talk, Phil Gervasi breaks down what “AI for NetOps” really means in practice, including the difference between classical ML and large language models (LLMs), why data pipelines matter more than model tuning, and how patterns like RAG (retrieval augmented generation), text-to-SQL, and agentic workflows turn raw telemetry into decisions.

Continuous profiling in production: A real-world example to measure benefits and costs

Continuous profiling offers deep visibility into production environments, revealing exactly how applications consume CPU and memory. It’s the go-to observability practice for directly connecting system behavior and performance to specific lines of code. But when teams consider deploying continuous profiling more broadly, a common question comes up: what’s the overhead? Is it safe to run continuous profiling on my production services 24/7, or does the cost outweigh the benefits?

Dashboard organization isn't about folders - it's about visibility

Having well-organized dashboards is just as important as having good dashboards. But dashboard organization shouldn’t just make things easy to find. It should provide structure that supports collaboration and efficient troubleshooting. It has to be more than a basic folder system. This post looks at how classic dashboarding tools handle organization today, where they fall short, and how SquaredUp Workspaces organize for visibility and shared context.

How Multispectral Drone Surveys Enhance Monitoring and Operational Intelligence

A multispectral drone survey is a powerful form of drone data analytics that captures invisible light data, enabling predictive maintenance and NDVI multispectral mapping with drones. This guide explains how industries use this UAV multispectral inspection service to move from reactive fixes to proactive, data-driven asset management with UAV multispectral data. However, many organizations still struggle to convert large volumes of monitoring data into timely, actionable insight.

Top 10 Port Monitoring Tools of 2025.

Port failures don’t always take a service offline. A port stops accepting connections, times out intermittently, or gets blocked by a firewall change, while everything else looks healthy. When that happens, users feel the break long before uptime checks notice. This article reviews port monitoring tools from an operational point of view. It looks at how they detect closed or slow ports, how alerts behave in noisy environments, and where basic checks fall short during real incidents.
