The Journey to Achieving Hyperscale Availability with AI-Driven Prediction
At hyperscale, a regional cloud outage is not merely a technical disruption—for Samsung Account, which serves 2.1 billion users across three global regions, it is an immediate global service crisis. Fragmented, region-siloed monitoring creates blind spots that make early detection nearly impossible, leaving SRE teams perpetually reactive rather than predictive. The path to proactive reliability requires both a philosophical shift and a foundational change in how observability data is collected, unified, and reasoned over.
k8s-monitoring-helm Chart Office Hours (June 2026)
In the June edition of the Kubernetes Monitoring Helm chart office hours, we discuss the version 4.1 release, the upcoming 4.2 feature release, and we discuss the deprecation of the 1.x and 2.0 versions.
Signal: The key to Self-Healing Software
More code is being written right now than at any point in our industry’s history. A year’s worth of software is now created every month, and most of it is no longer written by people. GitHub COO Kyle Daigle recently said, “There were 1 billion commits in 2025.
What's New in InfluxDB 3 Explorer 1.9: Flux-to-SQL Conversion, InfluxQL Support, and More
InfluxDB 3 Explorer 1.9 makes it easier to work with your existing queries. Whether you’re migrating Flux queries to SQL or you’ve been writing in InfluxQL for years, this release helps bring your existing queries forward instead of starting from scratch. For teams moving to v3 from earlier versions of InfluxDB, query migration is often one of the last major hurdles.
Debug and evaluate your AI app from your coding agent with Datadog Agent Observability
Coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex CLI handle the coding parts of building an AI application well. The harder work comes after: understanding why a response went wrong, building eval sets that reflect real production behavior, and keeping up with an application that changes faster than any one-off script can. Teams spend 60–80% of their time on evaluation and error analysis, and much of that work needs to be redone every time the stack shifts.
5 pitfalls to avoid when measuring DevEx in the AI era
Developer experience, commonly known as DevEx, describes how an organization’s systems, workflows, tools, and culture affect developer productivity. A positive DevEx leads to tangible organizational benefits, including faster releases, increased innovation, and reduced technical debt. Measuring DevEx enables engineering management to quantify their team’s impact and understand where to direct improvement efforts.
Datadog acquires Adaptive ML
Off-the-shelf models are easy to deploy, but they are rarely enough to solve complex, domain-specific challenges in production. The key to sustained AI value is not in the models themselves but in the ability to tune, evaluate, and refine those models against your organization’s real-time signals. We are excited to announce that Adaptive ML is joining Datadog to accelerate this vision by combining our deep observability data with their expertise in building specialized, high-performance AI agents.
Difference Between Elasticity and Scalability in Cloud Computing
In cloud computing, teams use elasticity and scalability as if they mean the same thing. In reality, the two describe different ways a system handles load, and they solve different problems. Mixing them up can be very expensive. You either pay for capacity that sits idle, or your app buckles the moment traffic spikes, and the bill and the incident report both feel it.
What Customers Are Doing With AI and Honeycomb
At O11yCon, we talked to engineering teams across the industry, and the numbers are starting to get genuinely wild: Mixpanel DevOps Engineer Eddie Bracho told us their engineering team is generating 50% more PRs than before AI came into the mix (sorry). That kind of velocity is exciting, but it's also a pressure test for every part of your stack that isn't writing code, including your observability practice. Here's what we're hearing from customers about how that's playing out.
