Best practices for meta-monitoring the Grafana Cloud Agent

Earlier this year, we introduced the Grafana Cloud Agent, a subset of Prometheus built for hosted metrics that runs lean on memory and uses the same service discovery, relabeling, WAL, and remote_write code found in Prometheus. Thanks to trimming down to the parts only needed for interaction with Cortex, tests of our first release have seen up to a 40% memory-usage reduction compared to an equivalent Prometheus process.

Troubleshoot Faster With LM Logs, Now Generally Available!

This past year we’ve been hard at work building LM Logs to help ITOps and DevOps teams troubleshoot more efficiently. Today we are happy to announce that LM Logs is generally available! LM Logs is an intelligent log monitoring solution that analyzes 100% of log data and surfaces it contextually with metrics and alerts for faster troubleshooting.

A Platform to Automate All The Things

In my seven months at Puppet, I continue to be amazed at the opportunity we have to drive value in some of the biggest companies and institutions in the world. Automation is no longer a nice to have -- it’s a must. As more companies further their cloud strategies to include cloud-native infrastructures, the complexity increases, making automation indispensable.

Redefining Business Intelligence for Real-time Businesses

Now, more than ever, amidst this transformation, enterprises can leverage their data and real-time analytics to gain a competitive advantage and gain market share.
