Easy Guide for Connecting Redis to a Grafana Data Source

Jan 12, 2026 By Benjamin Pitts In MetricFire
Redis is a widely used in-memory data store, commonly deployed as a cache, session store, message broker, or fast key-value database. Because Redis often sits on the critical path of an application, having visibility into its behavior (memory usage, client connections, command throughput, cache efficiency) is essential for troubleshooting and performance tuning.

Automate flaky test fixes with the Bits AI Dev Agent and Test Optimization

Jan 12, 2026 By Eric Metaj In Datadog
Flaky tests are a significant source of inefficiency that impacts many engineering teams. Along with failing your build, they interrupt your entire development flow, generate excessive CI/CD noise, and, critically, compromise developer trust in the test suite itself. Datadog Test Optimization enables you to manage test suites at scale by pinpointing the flakiest tests, analyzing their history across hundreds of runs, and automatically surfacing the root cause.

How we built an AI SRE agent that investigates like a team of engineers

Jan 12, 2026 By Daniel Shan In Datadog
We built Bits AI SRE to help engineers investigate and solve production incidents, one of the most difficult aspects of operating distributed systems today. As environments grow more dynamic and complex, resolving issues becomes more challenging. Failures now span more services, involve noisier signals, and encompass larger volumes of telemetry data, making it hard for on-call engineers to find root causes quickly. Today, Bits AI SRE is already helping teams decrease time to resolution by up to 95%.

Lightrun MCP: Your AI Assistant Now Debugs and Validates Production Code

Jan 9, 2026 By Lightrun In Lightrun
Intermittent production bugs are hard to debug and rarely reproduce locally. Teams fall into a loop of adding logs, and every rollback slows them down. In this demo, R&D team leads Maor Yaffe and Or Golan show how an AI assistant can verify production issues using real runtime data, without redeploying. By connecting Cursor to Lightrun MCP, the agent inspects live production behavior, collects real variable values, and confirms the root cause with evidence instead of assumptions.
