If your Wi-Fi keeps slowing down or dropping connections, checking whether your access points are online won't tell you much. You need to know what's causing the problem, whether it's weak signal strength, overloaded access points, or too many connected devices. Wireless network monitoring tools help you track these issues, monitor access point health, and spot problems before they affect more users.

When we first introduced people to Aiven Runtime, before it even had that name, we kept getting asked: "Can we schedule things?" If you come from a Unix background, that tends to cause a reflexive reach for the cron tool, which provides basic scheduling at fixed intervals. But if you've spent more time with distributed software, you're more likely to think of Apache Airflow, which can do a lot more (although, yes, you can use Airflow to schedule tasks at fixed intervals if you want).

Open the Dashboard Library on a Logs stack that already receives Nginx logs and a few cards come up ticked with a green Data detected badge. Others in the same pack sit there unticked. That isn't random. Before it shows you anything, the Library checks what your stack actually holds and pre-selects only the dashboards it expects to fill.

Q3 was a big quarter for Papertrail. You can now ask questions about your logs in plain English, explore structured logs by field, inspect any single log event in detail, and archive to your own S3 bucket with a setup that keeps you in control of access. We also shipped a round of smaller improvements that make sending logs and searching them faster and smoother. Here is a quick overview. The two Preview features have their own deep-dive articles, linked below.

When evaluating AI models for observability, generating a plausible query or explanation isn't enough. Teams need to know whether an agent's conclusions are supported by telemetry, whether its changes to dashboards actually work, and whether it can deliver reliable results consistently. This is why we built o11y-bench, Grafana Labs' open benchmark for evaluating AI models on observability and SRE tasks. And today, we're excited to share two updates.

Create a SharePoint calculated column: where to add it, formula syntax, worked examples for IF, dates and text, and the limits Microsoft documents.

Export a SharePoint list to Excel or CSV from the Export menu, how the one-way link works, the 30,000-row CSV limit, and ways to export larger lists.
