Blocked queries are one of the key issues faced by database analysts, engineers, and anyone managing database performance at scale. Blocking can be caused by inefficient query or database design as well as resource saturation, and can lead to increased latency, errors, and user frustration. Pinpointing root blockers—the underlying problematic queries that set off cascading locks on database resources—is key to troubleshooting and remediating database performance issues.

As part of the InfluxDB Cloud, powered by IOx launch, Paul Dix and Balaji Palani provided an InfluxDB Cloud overview and demo. In case you missed it, this blog is a quick 5 minute read summarizing the webinar. We shared the recording and the slides from the presentation for everyone to review and watch at your leisure.

We have recently extended the native machine learning (ML) based anomaly detection capabilities of Netdata to support all metrics, regardless on their collection frequency (update every).
