Netdata Agents and Parents now have a new UI! Steady to our schedule, this is another great Netdata release!

Hey there! We're excited to share a new troubleshooting feature we have added to Netdata, the Netdata Assistant. We've built this tool to help you troubleshoot more effectively and with less stress. Let's dive in.

We are always trying to lower the barrier to entry when it comes to monitoring and observability and one place we have consistently witnessed some pain from users is around adopting and approaching configuration management tools and practices as your infrastructure grows and becomes more complex.
