We’ve all been there: Sleeping peacefully in bed over the weekend, finally getting rest after a long week at your computer making AI-generated memes writing code. Then at 3 a.m., your phone makes an ungodly sound, and you wake up startled, frazzled, and confused. When you finally type in your passcode to unlock your phone (because facial recognition doesn’t register your bleary-eyed, squinty face), you see an alert, and all dreams of sleep are over.
Late last year we announced an early access program for Grafana Cloud Logs Export, a feature that allows users to easily export logs from Grafana Cloud to their own cloud-based object storage for long-term archival purposes. We are pleased to announce that the feature is now in public preview for all Grafana Cloud users, including those on the Free tier!
Grafana Agent v0.34 is now available! The v0.34 release includes features for remote secrets, better Kubernetes integration, and above all, more community involvement. The Grafana Agent team is also excited to continue driving growth around Grafana Agent Flow, a configuration mode that makes Grafana Agent easier and more powerful to run.
Picture a simple E-commerce platform with the following components, each generating logs and metrics. Imagine now the on-call Engineer responsible for this platform, feet up on a Sunday morning watching The Lord of The Rings with a coffee, when suddenly the on-call phone starts to ring! Oh no! It’s a customer phoning, and they report that sometimes, maybe a tenth of the time, the web front end is returning a generic error as they try to complete a workflow.
