AI Working for You: MCP, Canvas, and Agentic Workflows - Part 2

Apr 6, 2026 By Ken Rimple In Honeycomb
In our previous post in our series on observability for the agent era, we looked at how Honeycomb provides unique visibility into LLMs operating in your production environment. Now, let’s flip it around and explore how Honeycomb provides observability insights uniquely suited to helping your AI agents rapidly diagnose and fix production issues, and build production feedback into the next round of development.

The Fundamentals: Fast, Deep, and Ready for What Comes Next - Part 3

Apr 6, 2026 By Ken Rimple In Honeycomb
The previous two posts in this series have looked at some of the use cases Honeycomb customers are implementing to observe LLMs in production and power agentic observability workflows. In this third and final post, we’ll take it back to basics and look at how the fundamental capabilities and infrastructure of Honeycomb provide the comprehensive data and fast performance that makes these use cases work at production scale. AI capabilities built on a weak observability foundation fall apart fast.

We Know Before it Breaks: Observability-Driven Development

Apr 6, 2026 By Datadog In Datadog
When stakeholders push for faster growth (new markets, new features, newly modernized stack) your engineering model has to change too. At FitnessPassport, the shift from offshore waterfall delivery to an in-house team meant rebuilding not just services, but confidence: legacy systems with weak logging and little visibility made it hard to know whether changes were working and impossible to spot issues before users did. In this talk, Director of Engineering Rob Mitchell will share how FitnessPassport adopted Datadog and used structured logs, metrics, and traces to tighten feedback loops.

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU 2026: What We Learned About AI, Observability, and Fast Feedback Loops

Apr 3, 2026 By Abdullah Chowdhury In Honeycomb
Honeycomb was excited to attend KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe, where one theme stood out across sessions: as AI reshapes how software is built and run, teams are being pushed to rethink how they understand their systems. Without strong observability and feedback loops, AI can accelerate confusion, misalignment, and operational risk.

The Business Case for AI-Driven Observability in Network Operations

Apr 3, 2026 By Dallon Robinette In Selector
Modern network operations generate an extraordinary amount of telemetry. Metrics, logs, events, topology data, cloud signals, and service context all contribute to a richer picture of system behavior. As environments expand across cloud, data center, edge, and SaaS, the opportunity for operations teams is clear: when that telemetry is unified and understood in context, it becomes a powerful source of resilience, efficiency, and business insight.

When we say "Observability AI Reckoning," what are we actually talking about?

Apr 3, 2026 By Virtana In Virtana
We’ve spent the last decade collecting more telemetry. Now AI is analyzing it. Here’s the catch: AI needs the full dependency chain to reason correctly. If it sees spans but not storage contention… Services but not Kubernetes scheduling… Frontend metrics but not downstream providers… It will confidently optimize the wrong thing. AI doesn’t lower the need for observability. It raises the standard.

Profiling Java apps: breaking things to prove it works

Apr 3, 2026 By Nikolay Sivko In Coroot
Coroot already does eBPF-based CPU profiling for Java. It catches CPU hotspots well, but that's all it can do. Every time we looked at a GC pressure issue or a latency spike caused by lock contention, we could see something was wrong but not what. We wanted memory allocation and lock contention profiling. So we decided to add async-profiler support to coroot-node-agent. The goal: memory allocation and lock contention profiles for any HotSpot JVM, with zero code changes. Here's how we got there.
