Greetings! This is Abdelkrim from the Solutions Engineering team, and I am with Sriram from the Enterprise Plugin team. We both joined Grafana Labs in February this year, and we already have some stories to share with you. I came to Grafana Labs from a big data and analytics background, and I witnessed a lot of companies storing monitoring and performance data in all kinds of analytics platforms (data lakes, data warehouses, cloud, etc.).

The OpenTelemetry project is an ambitious endeavor with of goal of bringing together various technologies to form a vendor neutral observability platform. Within the past year, many of the biggest names in tech provide native support within their commercial projects.

In the early days of web development, there was one way to measure code: WTFs per minute. It was a metric that could be applied across all languages, as every developer knew what WTF meant (Works That Frustrate, obviously). Today, however, code is too intricate — and important — for clever, opaque metrics. You need objective data that communicates the quality and stability of your code — KPIs such as events accepted, transaction outcomes, and crash-free sessions.

We’ve seen how much you love SquaredUp. But we’re also aware that opening up access to your SCOM and Azure data can sometimes hold you back from sharing the joy of powerful dashboarding with other teams. And what about trying to get an overview of multiple SCOM management groups without having to log into each one individually? We have the perfect solution for both problems.

Open source is eating the world. Companies have realized and embraced that, and ever more companies today are built around a successful open source project. But there’s also a disturbing counter-movement: vendors relicensing popular open source projects to restrict usage. Last week it was Grafana Labs which announced relicensing Grafana, Loki and Tempo, its popular open source monitoring tools, from Apache2.0 to the more restrictive GNU AGPLv3 license.

Prometheus is an open-source tool that’s meant to monitor and collect metrics from applications. The point of this system is to make it easy for users to see and understand important metrics that let them know how well an application is doing. In fact, Prometheus is able to collect over one million metrics per second, and then store them until you’re ready to retrieve them.

When you hear the word "Thanos," your first thought might be the Marvel Cinematic Universe villain from the Avengers: Infinity War film who seeks to collect the Infinity Stones and end half of all life in the universe. But if you mention the word to a data nerd, you're likely to get a very different response. Prometheus is a free and open-source platform for real-time systems and event monitoring and alerting.

Data provides an essential basis for reports and analytics, with the databases storing the data now driving and informing most custom and line-of-business applications. Thus, anything organizations can do to speed up troubleshooting for database problems is pure gold. In fact, time saved on troubleshooting turns into time organizations can invest in being more productive and profitable.
