Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World

Jul 29, 2025 By Charity Majors In Honeycomb
Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering. And hey, that’s smashing. As an engineer from the ops/infra/SRE side of the house, I feel like I’ve been saying this my whole career. (Is there anything more satisfying than being proven right in public? Not in my book.) So, which is it?

Unifying Observability: Intelligence, Automation, and Insights in Action

Jul 28, 2025 By ScienceLogic In ScienceLogic
As enterprise IT environments evolve into ever-greater complexity and scale, demands on operations teams are accelerating. In the traditional model, observability tools collect data, engineers manually correlate events, and remediation follows a ticketing trail. However, that approach no longer matches the speed and scale of today’s digital businesses. Even the most storied dashboards can’t address today’s operational needs.

How I Use GenAI as a Thought Partner, Not a Shortcut

Jul 28, 2025 By Katie Leonard In Honeycomb
You don’t need to be a power user to get powerful results. I’m not training models or prompting GPTs into poetry—I’m just using them to do what great managers already try to do: communicate clearly, prioritize outcomes, and lead with intention. Over the last few quarters, I’ve built a handful of custom GPTs to support my weekly, monthly, and quarterly workflows.

Why continuous profiling is the fourth pillar of observability

Jul 25, 2025 By Marcus Hirt In Datadog
Developers have long used profilers to diagnose performance bottlenecks and improve the efficiency of their code. But a modern version of profiling, continuous profiling, is quietly redefining what profiling is and what it can do. By running nonstop in production with very low overhead, continuous profilers give teams always-on visibility into how their code behaves in the real world.

Observability Data: Ingestion Pipeline Best Practices

Jul 25, 2025 By Robert Gauthier In Broadcom
Great data is a prerequisite to all things AIOps and observability. Great observability data results in fewer observability gaps, better analysis and insights, and more confidence within teams that rely on the power of modern AIOps and observability technologies. Goals for improved automation, IT efficiencies, intelligent triage and remediation all become more achievable with better data.

Tutorial: Visualize Your Puppet Data in Grafana with the Observability Data Connector

Jul 24, 2025 By Puppet In Puppet
When you manage complex IT infrastructure, it becomes critical to use tooling to understand what’s happening across all of your systems in terms of performance, reliability, and compliance. Monitoring key indicators manually is simply no longer possible at that scale. Puppet has long been known as a solution for managing large environments and collecting a vast amount of data about your infrastructure, but accessing and visualizing that data in a meaningful way can be a challenge.
