How Grafana Cloud Ingests Your Data | Data Sources, Alloy & OTel Explained

Learn the two main ways to get data into Grafana Cloud. In this video, we break down how Grafana Cloud connects to over 150 external data sources (like Salesforce, Postgres, and CloudWatch) where your data stays in place, and how you can send raw telemetry into Grafana’s fully managed databases for logs, metrics, traces, and profiles.

Why you should use Language Server Protocol (LSP) with Claude Code

Agentic coding tools like Claude Code can write, refactor, and debug across an entire codebase, but by default they read code as plain text, the way grep does. The Language Server Protocol (LSP) changes that: it’s the same code-intelligence layer an IDE uses, and wiring it into an agent lets it read code by meaning instead of by string match. The bigger the codebase, the more a wrong guess about a symbol costs, and the more that structural view pays off.

Network Monitoring, the Netdata Way: Topology, NetFlow, SNMP, and Traps

Interface counters tell you a port is busy. Bytes in, bytes out, errors, drops. That’s enough to know a link is saturated, but not enough to know which conversations are saturating it, which devices are involved, or how a problem propagates across your network. For that you’ve traditionally needed dedicated network performance monitoring tools, usually expensive, usually a separate console from the rest of your monitoring.

How Git Worktrees Changed My Development Workflow

Since I started using Claude Code more frequently, I kept noticing a “worktree” checkbox popping up whenever I started a session in a Git repository. I had no idea what it meant, so I did what any curious developer would do and started digging. What I found was a Git feature I somehow never came across before: git worktrees.

Multi-Agent Architectures - What we shipped, what broke, and what we'd do differently

At LLMday Lisbon, our Software Engineer, Viktor Vasylkovskyi, highlights the realities of building production AI agents with LangGraph - sometimes getting it right, often learning the hard way. This talk is about what was actually shipped, including a distributed multi-agent setup at PagerDuty. Viktor breaks down the real tradeoffs between LLM-driven and deterministic orchestration, what broke, and how he’d approach it differently now.

Europe's Heatwave Is a Real-Time Stress Test for Data Center Infrastructure

Europe is in the middle of one of its most severe heat events on record, and the effects go well beyond public health. As temperatures across France, Spain, the UK, and Germany push into record territory, the strain on power grids, cooling systems, and physical infrastructure is becoming impossible to ignore. For data center operators, maintaining uptime in this environment demands the real-time visibility that modern Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software can provide.

Telegraf Enterprise Now Generally Available: Manage Telegraf Fleets at Scale

Telegraf Enterprise is now generally available. It combines Telegraf Controller, a centralized management console for Telegraf, with official support from InfluxData. Open source Telegraf remains unchanged. Telegraf Controller is free to start with built-in limits, while a Telegraf Enterprise license unlocks higher-scale limits, audit logging, LDAP/OIDC integration, and commercial support. Telegraf has become the standard for collecting telemetry across cloud, edge, and physical infrastructure.
