“What’s New in Sysdig” is back with the August 2023 edition! My name is Jonathon Cerda, based in Dallas, Texas, and the Sysdig team is excited to share our latest feature releases with you.

We're excited to introduce a new enhancement to help teams build more reliable software: Detected Risks. Available today, Detected Risks helps you find and fix the most common causes of infrastructure outages and incidents in minutes—without running Chaos Engineering experiments or reliability tests.

Grafana 10.1 is here! The latest Grafana release introduces new features and improvements that help deepen your observability insights in Grafana, including an improved flame graph, a new geomap network layer, simplified alerting workflows, and more. Grafana 10.1: Download now! For an overview of all the features in this release, check out our What’s New documentation. And to learn the details about all the Grafana 10.1 updates, read our changelog for more information.

It is time to sum up the product updates that we introduced during summer 2023. As always, our focus has been on minimizing limitations in the incident response process and accelerating the workflow from acknowledgment to resolution. We invite you to contribute to the ilert roadmap by submitting your feature and improvement ideas here.

Christina Kosmowski, CEO of LogicMonitor, is here today to introduce the latest innovations for our quarterly Summer 2023 Launch, which is focused on extending visibility wherever your business demands through unified monitoring across your entire hybrid cloud ecosystem! How is it already August? As I look back at the intensely busy spring and summer we had here at LogicMonitor, I can’t help but romanticize the idea of journeys and road trips.

Following the release of upstream Kubernetes on 15th of August, Canonical Kubernetes 1.28 is generally available in the form of MicroK8s, with Charmed Kubernetes expected to follow shortly. We consistently follow the upstream release cadence to provide our users and customers with the latest improvements and fixes, together with security maintenance and enterprise support for Kubernetes on Ubuntu.

I am happy to share that thanks to the power of the open-source community, and our friends over at Otterize, we have now enhanced our Kubernetes offering for developers with another visual aid to streamline operations and troubleshooting – Dependencies Map. The Otterize network mapper is a zero-config tool that aims to be lightweight and doesn’t require you to adapt anything in your cluster.

The popular chromium based browser ecosystem has recently changed how performance metrics can be collected in relation to performance.timing. Before we get into the details, the TLDR is: if you use the Raygun CDN for raygun4js, you’re up to date. If you self-host raygun4js and use Raygun Real User Monitoring, you’ll want to upgrade to version 2.27.0.

The team at SigNoz would like to share recent developments released this month that greatly enhance the ability to dynamically query your trace and log data. With these tools anyone can explore complex OpenTelemetry data and gain insight into their stack.

Observability has traditionally been conceptualized in terms of three core facets: logs, metrics, and traces. For years, these elements have been seen as the “pillars” of observability, serving as the foundational components for system monitoring and delivering key insights to improve system performance. However, with the exponential growth in system complexity, a more comprehensive and unified perspective on observability has become necessary.
