Generative AI and Observability Automation - Sajid Mehmood & Michael Gerstenhaber

One of the biggest challenges in observability is separating the signal from the noise. As artificial intelligence (AI) tools become more powerful and accessible, it has generated a lot of buzz around the role of AI with respect to the performance and reliability of our technical systems and the teams that build and operate them. In this fireside chat, Michael Gertenhaber (Datadog VP of Product) and Sajid Mehmood (Datadog VP of Engineering) will sift through the hype to chat about what generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) will really mean for the future of observability and how it can benefit your teams today.

Optimizing cloud resources and cost with APM metadata in Elastic Observability

Application performance monitoring (APM) is much more than capturing and tracking errors and stack traces. Today’s cloud-based businesses deploy applications across various regions and even cloud providers. So, harnessing the power of metadata provided by the Elastic APM agents becomes more critical. Leveraging the metadata, including crucial information like cloud region, provider, and machine type, allows us to track costs across the application stack.
