Monitoring & Observability Report Top Findings
Today, BigPanda released our first-ever research report based on data gathered from our agentic IT operations platform. Our Monitoring and Observability Tool Effectiveness for IT Event Management report provides insights and benchmarks on incident detection and noise reduction for 130 enterprise organizations, including the monitoring and observability data sources integrated with BigPanda.
Observability in under 5 seconds: Reflecting on a year of grafana/otel-lgtm
With grafana/otel-lgtm, observability is just one Docker command away. Over the past year, grafana/otel-lgtm has simplified observability setups, helping developers get a complete OpenTelemetry stack running in under five seconds. With integrations for metrics, logs, traces, and now profiles via Grafana Pyroscope, it has become a go-to solution for demos, development, and testing, as evidenced by its growing community (1k stars on GitHub and growing!) and notable adopters.
How to Simplify AI Observability Across Hybrid and Cloud Environments
As companies adopt more artificial intelligence (AI) to stay competitive and simplify operations, they’re hitting a snag they’ve seen plenty of times before: complexity. Those user-friendly chatbots and impressive predictive models aren’t magic—they run on powerful GPUs like NVIDIA’s and rely on cloud services such as Azure OpenAI or Amazon SageMaker.

Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline Demo
Jessitron takes you through a 3-minute demo of the Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline. Our makes it easier to manage telemetry so you always have the data you need, when you need it, without trading off cost, control, or visibility.
Observability isn't about the tool. It's about the truth
An enterprise client reports latency. Your dashboards say everything is fine. They blame you. You blame them. Nobody can prove it either way. This is where most monitoring efforts hit a wall. Too often, the conversation gets stuck on dashboards and tools instead of the one thing that really matters: truth. Observability isn’t about collecting metrics or building pretty dashboards.
LangChain Observability: From Zero to Production in 10 Minutes
LangChain apps are powerful, but they’re not easy to monitor. A single request might pass through an LLM, a vector store, external APIs, and a custom chain of tools. And when something slows down or silently fails, debugging is often guesswork. In one instance, a developer ended up with an unexpected $30,000 OpenAI bill, with no visibility into what triggered it. This blog shows how to avoid that using OpenTelemetry and LangSmith. With this setup, you’ll be able to.
Detecting & Diagnosing Problems, Across Logs, Metrics, & Traces
What does it look like to notice & debug a problem in Honeycomb? Start with a Service Level Objective (SLO), and Honeycomb can tell you what's unusual about the events that are failing. Continue to dig into all your telemetry.
Netdata: The Fastest Path to Full Stack Observability. AI Powered.
Netdata is a real-time, high-performance and on-premises observability platform designed to monitor metrics and logs with unparalleled efficiency. Netdata requires zero-configuration to get started, and provides alerts, anomaly detection and AI assisted troubleshooting out of the box, providing a powerful and comprehensive infrastructure monitoring experience. Netdata is known for its distributed design. Instead of funneling all data into a few central databases like most traditional monitoring solutions, Netdata processes data at the edge, keeping it close to the source.
