Inside the Observability Journey: Lessons from CarGurus, Nearform & More

Join us for a dynamic panel from Observability Sessions Boston where leaders from CarGurus, Nearform, and Grafana Labs share their real-world experiences with observability. In this candid discussion, David Frankel (CarGurus) and Joe Szodfridt (Nearform) delve into the challenges of implementing scalable observability practices, moving from centralized models to federated teams, and navigating cloud migration with a focus on performance and cost.

Observability 2.0 in the Real World: Lessons from SimpliSafe's Engineering Journey

In this candid and insightful talk from Observability Sessions Boston, Laban Eilers, a platform engineer at SimpliSafe, takes us on a practical deep dive into the evolution of observability—from the traditional “three pillars” model to the emerging promise of Observability 2.0.

Grafana Cloud updates: New observability as code tools, Grafana Drilldown enhancements, and more

We consistently roll out helpful updates and fun features in Grafana Cloud, our fully managed observability platform powered by the open source Grafana LGTM Stack: Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Tempo for traces, and Mimir for metrics. With GrafanaCON 2025 — and the release of Grafana 12 — earlier this month, there are a ton of Grafana Cloud updates to share.

OpenTelemetry with Prometheus: better integration through resource attribute promotion

Customize your incident response with new features in Grafana Cloud IRM

No matter where or how you work, we all have the same goal when an incident occurs: to get it resolved effectively and efficiently—and as quickly as possible. However, the way we achieve that goal isn’t always the same. We understand that different organizations operate differently, so you need flexibility from your IRM tooling.

Azure Monitor offers Grafana dashboards natively for immediate real time operational monitoring

The Grafanaverse just got a little bit bigger. Today at its annual Build conference, Microsoft introduced Azure Monitor dashboards with Grafana, a new service that provides Azure users with Grafana dashboards natively integrated in the Azure Portal at no additional cost and with little administrative overhead required.
