Getting MTTR to zero: the failed promise of observability
There’s an old cliche about sales and jobs to be done - no one wants to buy a drill, they need a hole… actually, they want a home with pictures on the wall. To get to that beautifully designed home, they will buy a drill, make holes for brackets that can support their various artwork and family photos, and progress toward their dream home experience. Similarly, no one wants to buy observability software. They want their mean time to resolve (MTTR) issues to be zero.
Does AI Help Write Better Software, or Just... More Code?
As software teams race to integrate AI into their development workflows, we need to ask ourselves: are AI-powered tools actually making software better? The latest research from DORA confirms what many engineers have long suspected, and what we at Honeycomb have said for a long time: AI tools don’t magically lead to better software. In fact, without careful implementation, AI can introduce a whole slew of challenges, including decreased productivity and unreliable code.

Using observability tools for security monitoring and incident detection
Most security teams overlook a goldmine of data sitting right in their applications - crash reports and Real User Monitoring (RUM) telemetry. While engineers typically use these tools for performance tracking, they can reveal security incidents that might otherwise go unnoticed. Let's explore some practical ways to turn your observability data into a powerful security monitoring system. I'll help create a table of contents in the requested format based on the headings in the article.
gRPC Observability and Mocking with proxymock
Use the free proxymock CLI to observe your locally running gRPC app without code changes. You can also create service mocks and embed them into your CI/CD pipeline using the same recording.
Challenges in Kubernetes monitoring and how to overcome them
Kubernetes has revolutionized how organizations deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications, offering unprecedented efficiency and flexibility. However, the very characteristics that make Kubernetes so powerful—its dynamic, distributed, and ephemeral nature—also create significant challenges for monitoring. Without robust monitoring capabilities, organizations struggle to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, optimize resource utilization, and maintain security.
