In the dynamic landscape of microservices and cloud-native architectures, the role of service meshes has become increasingly crucial. These programmable frameworks empower users to seamlessly connect, secure, and observe their microservices, relieving them of the complexities associated with these critical tasks within their applications. Istio, a leading service mesh project, has been at the forefront of this evolution since its inception in 2017.

Logz.io is excited to announce Service Map, a new way to visualize the data flow, dependencies, and critical performance metrics throughout your microservices architecture, which makes it easy to gather critical troubleshooting context as you investigate production issues.

Here at Logz.io, we realize Kubernetes is the most common infrastructure component that organizations are running on to keep their applications going. In return, we’ve made a big investment to support Kubernetes properly and give customers the tools they need to investigate and troubleshoot any issues that arise.

If you missed KubeCon North America 2023 in Chicago, or you were there and spent more time in the “hallway tracks,” you may have missed some of the big news that came out of the show. We covered the big happenings in the open source cloud native and observability realm in the latest episode of OpenObservability Talks!

When things go wrong, we’d all love the ability to go back in time, return things to the way they were, and fix whatever issues pop up at the start so they never happen in the first place. This is no different when maintaining complex microservices-based architectures. With any complex system, things are bound to go wrong from time to time.
