Last9 and Altinity now run observability entirely in your own cloud, metrics, logs, traces, and profiles on an open-source ClickHouse stack, priced on capacity instead of ingestion, with Altinity operating the database so your team doesn't have to. Last9 is an observability platform built for high-cardinality telemetry. It unifies logs, metrics, and traces with native OpenTelemetry and Prometheus support, real-time alerting, and long-term retention.

Gigamon COO Gareth Maclachlan on deep observability, the Elastic AI Ecosystem partnership, and AI traffic governance for security teams.

Incident response has a well-known efficiency problem. The tools teams use to detect and investigate issues are often disconnected from the tools they use to manage and resolve them. Engineers spend a significant portion of each incident switching between platforms, assembling context that should already be at hand. Even when the data is available, correlating signals across user, app, infrastructure, and security events to pinpoint a root cause remains manual and slow.

Over the past few months, Puppet has partnered with Bryxx to host a series of leadership lunches across Europe, bringing together infrastructure, operations, and security leaders for candid, peer‑to‑peer conversations. These sessions weren’t marketing briefings. They were grounded discussions about what teams are facing right now: tighter regulation, rising security pressure, shifting cloud strategies, and the practical realities of automation and AI.

Today at Hannover Messe, InfluxData is announcing a strategic partnership with Litmus to address one of the most persistent challenges in industrial data: getting reliable, contextualized telemetry from the shop floor into production systems. Litmus bridges the gap between OT systems and modern IT infrastructure, while InfluxDB serves as the industrial data hub, giving organizations both real-time operational visibility and enterprise-scale historical analysis in a unified architecture.

Today, Kosli and Adaptavist announce a strategic partnership to help regulated enterprises automate governance for AI driven software delivery - making it automated, continuous, and evidence-driven rather than a manual checkpoint that sits apart from DevOps and CI/CD. Adaptavist brings deep enterprise DevOps transformation expertise: assessment and strategy, DevSecOps integration, developer experience, and implementation across Atlassian, GitLab, and AWS.
