Scrapers Take Down GitHub: December 11 Outage Timeline
On December 11, 2025, GitHub experienced intermittent disruptions that frustrated users across the globe. Developers everywhere started seeing random errors, 503s, unicorns, and CI pipeline failures. Very quickly it became clear something was wrong, even though GitHub’s status page still said ALL SYSTEMS OPERATIONAL. After the incident was over, GitHub published a postmortem that revealed the cause: scrapers. Automated tools hit GitHub with enough traffic to overwhelm key backend systems.
Agentic AI demands a new data architecture #ai #telemetry
Clint Sharp explains why traditional schema-on-read systems cannot handle the query loads of the future. Agentic telemetry requires a 360-degree view, but structuring data only when you read it is too slow for AI-driven workloads. The solution is using LLMs to drive the cost of building parsers to near zero. Tools like Copilot Editor allow teams to map data to OCSF instantly, effectively building factories of parsers to handle the scale of agentic AI.
OTel Updates: OpenTelemetry Proposes Changes to Stability, Releases, and Semantic Conventions
Over the past year, the Governance Committee ran user interviews and surveys with organizations deploying OpenTelemetry at scale. A few patterns came up consistently: Stability levels aren't always obvious. When you install an OTel distribution, some components might be experimental or alpha without clear markers. This makes it harder to evaluate what's production-ready. Instrumentation libraries sometimes wait on semantic conventions.
Using AI + Rollbar's Session Replay to Understand Complex Errors
Front‑end bugs are notoriously hard to reproduce. By the time an error shows up in your monitoring tool, the most important context is already gone: what the user actually did. Session replay helps—but only if someone has the time and patience to scrub through recordings, correlate events, and form a hypothesis. That’s where Rollbar’s MCP server, paired with an AI agent like Github Copilot, changes the game.
The Impact of Network Downtime on Enterprise Productivity - and How Monitoring Helps
Enterprise IT teams operate under relentless pressure to maintain seamless connectivity, yet many business leaders underestimate the financial gravity of Network Downtime. Studies consistently show that even a brief outage can cost enterprises hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour, positioning downtime as one of the most disruptive threats to business continuity.
Major Cloud Outages of 2025
Cloud outages in 2025 ranged from minor ones affecting some sections of users, to major ones affecting hundreds or thousands of users. Services like Cloudflare and AWS on which many other services depend experienced outages that affected many due to the cascading effect. Let's look at some of the major cloud outages in 2025.
Using AI + Rollbar's Session Replay to Understand Complex Errors
Front‑end bugs are notoriously hard to reproduce. By the time an error shows up in your monitoring tool, the most important context is already gone: *what the user actually did*. By letting an AI agent like Copilot analyze Rollbar's session replay data directly, teams can move from *“something broke”* to *“here’s exactly why it broke”* in minutes, not hours.
