Reporting is essential when managing a microservice architecture. Without some kind of reporting tool, it’s significantly more difficult to gain insight into how services and resources are functioning. Software teams need this insight in order to make meaningful progress — without reporting, it’s hard to even know where progress needs to be made. With the introduction of CQL reports, Cortex gives you more visibility than ever before.

Grafana Loki 2.7 has arrived! With it comes an experimental feature we are rather excited about: a redesigned index based off of the Prometheus TSDB index. While we are still in the early stages, this enhancement in Grafana Loki, which we previewed at ObservabilityCON 2022, creates a smaller storage footprint, better query performance, and much more that we will dive into below!

Today we’re excited to announce Logz.io Telemetry Collector – an agent that can send logs, metrics, and traces to Logz.io in a single installation as part of our Open 360™ platform. With Telemetry Collector, customers can get started monitoring their services with Logz.io faster than ever by simplifying the data collection process.

Sleuth’s product team is pleased to announce an exciting new feature that provides early and actionable visibility into emerging work-in-progress risk! With this release, Sleuth provides customers even more actionable visibility into their engineering efficiency. It extends Sleuth's deploy-centric tracking capabilities upstream in the developer workflow to provide real-time visibility into in-flight work and its emerging risks. Here's how it works.

Another release of the Netdata Monitoring solution is here!

Our product strategy this year was relatively simple. Many observability practitioners we spoke with complained that observability was oftentimes slow, heavy, complex, and costly – which can be summed up in our CEO’s recent blog on modern observability challenges. While our customers didn’t report similar challenges, we wanted to further distance ourselves from this typical observability experience.

Today, I’m thrilled to announce the introduction of Logz.io Open 360™. This is a major step in our journey. Open 360 is a unified platform for modern engineering teams requiring end-to-end observability across logs, metrics and traces—delivered in an intuitive user interface. Open 360™ is specifically designed to enable engineers to have deep monitoring and insights into distributed systems.

Rancher, the open source container management platform, uses Fleet to enable its continuous deployment features. Fleet brings GitOps functionality to Rancher. Fleet in Rancher 2.7.0 can fetch Helm charts from OCI registries. Using OCI registries to store Helm charts is an increasingly popular storage method. It allows storing your charts in a registry alongside your container images. This unifies the storage options for charts and reduces friction. Using a chart in an OCI registry is fairly simple.
