Splunk Observability Cloud and Ansible Automation Platform - How to Remediate Alerts with Ansible

Close the AIOps loop with Splunk Observability Cloud and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. Explore how OpenTelemetry and Event-Driven Ansible turn alerts into automated fixes, reducing manual firefighting and speeding up incident resolution.

Go, Logs and the Engineering Behind VictoriaLogs Performance

What actually makes a logging system fast? That was the question behind Tech Talk. And if you were expecting the answer to be a collection of clever Go optimizations, Jesús Espino, Principal Engineer at VictoriaMetrics, made an important point pretty early in our conversation: A huge part of VictoriaLogs’ performance comes from architecture and data structures. The micro-optimizations come later. Now that gave my Tech Talk partner in crime, Mathias Palmersheim, and me plenty to dig into.

CriblCon 26 Keynote highlights: Cribl StreamAI, App Framework, Marketplace, and Detect

This CriblCon 26 keynote highlight reel introduces Cribl’s AI platform for telemetry and highlights Cribl StreamAI, the Cribl App Framework, Cribl Marketplace, and Cribl Detect. It is relevant to IT, security, and observability teams exploring intelligent model routing, agentic app development, marketplace deployment, and security investigations using telemetry and context. The keynote also covers the SEC IT benchmark, the cost of investigating incidents with different AI models, and included inference for Cribl-native workloads.

Centralizing logs: Apache Kafka + OpenSearch

TL;DR Aiven for OpenSearch is where you search logs from every service, with OpenSearch Dashboards included and a built-in integration for Aiven service logs. When several destinations need the same logs, or traffic bursts and mapping changes put logs at risk, put Aiven for Apache Kafka in front: applications write once, Kafka buffers and replays, and sink connectors route logs to OpenSearch, object storage and Aiven for ClickHouse.

Best AI Observability Tools of 2026: Monitoring the AI You Build and the AI That Runs Your Ops

TL;DR “AI observability” now describes two different jobs. One is watching the LLM apps and AI agents your team ships: prompts, tool calls, token spend, and output quality. The other is putting AI agents to work on your production telemetry so incidents are already being investigated by the time an engineer logs in. Most engineering orgs in 2026 need both, and very few tools cover the two well.

Introducing Migration Benchmarks: every source we timed now converts in under an hour

The Coralogix migrations team has published what it measured. Since 2023 the team has moved more than 75,000 assets across 300+ migrations and onboardings, including a single migration of about 41,000 alerts. The new Migration Benchmarks page holds the figures by source, a calculator for your own migration and the causes of delay that post-migration reviews name most.

October 2026 at Bindplane: First-class Gateways, three new destinations, and a three-tab Overview

Gateways are now a named resource in Bindplane with their own page, a guided setup, and a one-step migration for anything already running the Bindplane Gateway source. Around that we added destinations for CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, Arize AX, and Arize Phoenix, gave the Overview page a third tab. Prefer to watch?

Logging as a Service (LaaS): What It Costs and When It Fits

Logging as a Service moves your log management to a provider. They collect, parse, store and search your logs for a monthly fee. The fee is where it goes wrong. Providers meter five different things, and the one written into your contract decides whether ordinary growth doubles your bill. In this blog, you'll see: By the end you'll know which meter your workload lands on. Logging as a Service is a cloud-delivered model for collecting and searching logs.
