Tutorial: How to Use ChaosSearch with Grafana for Observability

In my last blog post, Building a Cost-Effective Full Observability Solution Around Open APIs and CNCF Projects, we introduced using ChaosSearch in combination with the most popular open source front- and back-ends in the application observability space. In case you missed it, the TL;DR version is that you can use a variety of open source projects and open API-based components to build the best-of-breed observability stack of your choice rather than relying on expensive, all-in-one solutions.

Coroot at Nerdearla & Percona University

In September 2026, Coroot headed off to South America for three events: Percona University, Nerdearla, and KCD Argentina. Percona University was a great opportunity to connect with the local open source database community in Montevideo, Uruguay. Hosted by Coroot partner Percona, the free educational event covered a full day of entertaining talks on AI, observability, and emerging database tech.

Agents Need Context: Introducing Canvas Connectors, Fleet-wide AI Agent Visibility, and More

Earlier this year, we introduced more capabilities to support agents in production, a more chaotic, complex environment that requires a tremendous amount of context to understand. Unlike tools that capture shallow, pre-aggregated metrics, or cannot join a metric, trace, and log in one query, Honeycomb retains the context and connective tissue from telemetry data to build a nuanced view of production.

Introducing AI Ecosystem: Zoom Out to See Your Whole AI Agent Fleet

A few months ago, we launched Agent Timeline to close the gap between knowing an agent failed and understanding why. It took the tangled reality of a multi-agent, multi-trace workflow and rendered it as a single, readable conversation: every LLM call, tool invocation, handoff, and downstream system span laid out in the order they happened.

VictoriaTraces in VictoriaMetrics Cloud: Complete Observability is Here

Earlier this year, we launched VictoriaLogs in VictoriaMetrics Cloud, bringing fast and cost-effective log management to everyone. Today we launch the final major step toward full observability: VictoriaTraces is now available to all cloud users. With this release, you can now manage all three signals, metrics, logs, and traces, in one place with the predictable pricing, reliability, and the operational simplicity you’ve come to expect from VictoriaMetrics.

CriblCon 2026 Keynote: The AI Platform for Telemetry

In this CriblCon 2026 keynote, Cribl leaders introduce the AI Platform for Telemetry and explain how organizations can own, search, govern, and use telemetry for both human investigators and AI agents. The keynote is for teams responsible for security, observability, IT operations, and telemetry infrastructure.

Cribl On Your Coffee Break Episode 20 - Keep learning, keep growing, keep Cribl-ing!

As we wrap up our month-long series, we look at the resources that will help you keep learning and growing - from Cribl University to Sandboxes to the Cribl Community and beyond. By the time the month is over, you will have a pretty good idea of what Cribl can do, and how to do it. You’ll also have consumed more caffeinated beverages than is strictly appropriate...

In our penultimate episode of the series we try to hit all the things that didn’t fit anywhere else - Cribl Guard, the API/SDK, Insights, and the FinOps center. By the time the month is over, you will have a pretty good idea of what Cribl can do, and how to do it. You’ll also have consumed more caffeinated beverages than is strictly appropriate...
