What is whitebox monitoring? Why do we monitor our systems? What is the Azure Monitor plugin and how can I use it to monitor my Azure resources? Recently, I spoke at Swetugg 2018, a .NET conference held in Stockholm, Sweden to answer these questions. In this video you’ll learn some basic monitoring principles, some of the tools we use to monitor our systems, and get an inside look at the new Azure Monitor plugin for Grafana.

While Logz.io provides Kibana — the ELK Stack’s visualization tool — as part of its service, a lot of users have asked us to support Grafana. One of the leading open source visualization tools today, Grafana has some added value when compared to Kibana, especially around visualizing time-series data.
In addition to our weekly roundup of Grafana-related articles and upcoming events, we’re pleased to announce Grafana v5.1.3 has been released!
