OTel Updates: Complex Attributes Now Supported Across All Signals

Nov 19, 2025 By Anjali Udasi In Last9

OpenTelemetry now supports maps, heterogeneous arrays, and byte arrays across all signals. Here’s where these new types shine — and where simple primitives still fit naturally. If you’ve been working with OpenTelemetry for a while, you’re likely familiar with the straightforward key-value approach to attributes. It’s simple, fast, and works well with how most telemetry backends store, index, and query data.

Nov 19, 2025 By Stephen Ochs In Selector

Yesterday’s widespread Cloudflare outage reminds us how crucial external dependencies are to the stability of our own applications. When a key edge provider like Cloudflare goes down, the impact on your internal monitoring systems can look like a catastrophic, internal system failure triggering a massive storm of alerts and sending engineering teams into frantic, misdirected debugging sessions.

OnlineOrNot's lessons from Cloudflare's outage on 2025-11-18

Nov 19, 2025 By Max Rozen In OnlineOrNot

On 2025-11-18 at 11:48 UTC, Cloudflare declared an incident affecting the global network (that also affected OnlineOrNot). OnlineOrNot monitors websites, APIs, web apps, and cron jobs, while providing status pages as well. While we partially mitigated the issue by enabling a fallback to AWS-based monitoring, between 13:00 UTC and 14:33 UTC failing checks went unreported, heartbeat checks over-reported, and status pages were unavailable.

So… what should I actually listen for, and where should I set the thresholds?

Stay audit-ready with real-time file change alerts in Site24x7 server monitoring

Nov 18, 2025 By Geoffrin Edwin In Site24x7

Maintaining the integrity of server files and directories is essential for security, operational resilience, and compliance. Whether it’s business-critical application configurations, sensitive data files, or audit logs, any unauthorized, unexpected, or accidental modification can jeopardize service continuity and expose an organization to regulatory risks.
