I recently gave a talk at GrafanaCon LA, which was heavily inspired by my blog post on check output metric extraction. During the talk, I dove into a popular monitoring use case with Sensu, InfluxDB, and Grafana — let’s call it the SIG stack . While I got to share some awesome features in Sensu that ultimately allow users to collect, store, and visualize their metrics, the conference was about Grafana, and folks wanted to see dashboards!

We’re thrilled to announce that the latest release of Sensu Go — version 5.2 — is available today! Sensu Go empowers you to automate your monitoring workflows, offering a comprehensive monitoring solution for your infrastructure, applications, and connected devices. Sensu Go is a massive improvement over the original Sensu (version 1.x), with an emphasis on ease of use and quick time to value.
