Gain real-time observability into your software supply chain with the New Relic Log Analytics Integration

JFrog’s new log analytics integration with New Relic brings together powerful observability capabilities to monitor, analyze, and visualize logs and metrics from self-hosted JFrog environments. The integration is free for all tiers of self-hosted JFrog customers and utilizes the powerful, open source log management tool, Fluentd, to collect, process, and surface data in New Relic dashboards.

Time Series Data, Cardinality, and InfluxDB

In the world of databases, cardinality refers to the number of unique sets of data stored in a database. If we drill down a little further, we can think of cardinality as the total number of unique values possible within a table column or database equivalent. When thinking about time series data, we can ask some specific questions about cardinality. What does cardinality look like in practice? When does cardinality become a problem? How do we prevent cardinality issues?

Metrics vs. Logs vs. Traces (vs. Profiles)

In software observability, we often talk about three signal types - metrics, logs, and distributed traces. More recently I've been hearing about profiles as another signal type. In this article I will explain the different observability signals and when to use them in a clear and concise way.

The Evolution of Security: From Good to Better to Best

Security is a never-ending journey that evolves as you add new products and applications. There’s no such thing as being 100% secure because things constantly move and adjust within your network, emphasizing the need for organizations to stay ahead of possible threats capable of directly and indirectly affecting them.

Deploy Open Telemetry to Kubernetes in 5 minutes

OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability framework that provides a vendor-neutral and language-agnostic way to collect and analyze telemetry data. This tutorial will show you how to integrate OpenTelemetry on Kubernetes, a popular container orchestration platform. Prerequisites.

Pyroscope and Grafana Phlare join together to accelerate adoption of continuous profiling, the next pillar of observability

We are happy to announce that Pyroscope, the company behind the eponymous open source continuous profiling project, is now part of Grafana Labs. With this acquisition, we will be merging the Pyroscope project and Grafana Phlare, the project we launched last year, under the new name Grafana Pyroscope. We first met the Pyroscope team, led by co-founders Ryan Perry and Dmitry Filimonov, as they were graduating from Y Combinator. Like Grafana Labs, they have open source in their DNA.
