The Next Generation of AI-Powered Observability

AI is changing our world, and its impact on observability is no different. This article discusses some of the components of a good observability platform, how AI is well-positioned to revolutionize observability, and how Lumigo Copilot Beta will provide substantial value to customers and partners.

AI Log Analysis - Shaping the Future of Observability

As digital applications and infrastructures grow increasingly complex, managing and understanding log data has become increasingly vital in achieving practical observability, enabling organizations to detect, diagnose, and prevent issues across their systems. However, traditional log analysis methods often struggle with the volume and complexities of modern log data in cloud-native environments.

Our team's learnings from Kubecon: Use Exemplars, Configuring OTel, and OTTL cookbook

A few weeks ago, members of Mezmo were at Kubecon and attended several sessions. You can see a post with my recap and session highlights. Today, though, I’m going to discuss three sessions that my colleagues found interesting for our peers in Observability.

Scaling Observability on a Budget with Cribl for State, Local, and Education

Over the past year, I’ve noticed some interesting trends in my work with state and local governments. Across my conversations with organizations in this space, there’s a common thread: teams are getting creative about maximizing their limited resources. With budgets either flat or shrinking and operational demands increasing, these teams face tough choices. They’re being asked to maintain or improve services while working with the same, or in some cases, fewer resources than before.

Observability in the Age of AI

This post was written by Charity Majors and Phillip Carter. In May of 2023, we released the Honeycomb Query Assistant, an LLM-backed feature that lets engineers use natural language to generate and execute queries against their telemetry data. Instead of having to master a domain-specific query language, you can simply type in things like “slow endpoints by status code” and the Query Assistant will generate a relevant Honeycomb query for you to iterate on.

What is Performance Engineering?

Performance engineering transforms how organizations build and optimize software systems. System delays and performance issues directly impact revenue, user satisfaction, and business success. This guide covers performance engineering fundamentals, implementation approaches, and advanced strategies for building high-performing systems.
