Why Modern Businesses Need More Than Email to Stay in Line With Industry Expectations

For decades, email was the lifeline of corporate communication. It was official. Traceable. Accepted in courtrooms and compliance audits alike.

Complete guide to OpenTelemetry Tracing (with code examples)

Distributed tracing is an essential technique for monitoring modern, cloud-native applications. It provides a holistic view of a request's entire journey as it propagates through a multi-service architecture, making it invaluable for performance optimization and root cause analysis. But how do you generate and collect this trace data in a standardized, vendor-agnostic way? That's where OpenTelemetry comes in.

Maximize data value and cut costs: Adaptive Telemetry for metrics, logs, traces, and profiles in Grafana Cloud

When it comes to observability, more data doesn’t always mean more clarity. In fact, as telemetry volumes grow, it only becomes more difficult to discern the signals from the noise and to keep overall costs in check. This is exactly why we built Adaptive Telemetry, a suite of features in Grafana Cloud that analyzes how your telemetry is used and then automatically recommends actions like aggregating, sampling, dropping, or reducing low-value data.

AI-powered observability: Resolve incidents faster, reduce alert fatigue, and expand access

When an incident lands in your lap, you’ll often start with a lot of questions: Why is latency so high? What’s causing this outage? How much money are we losing at this very moment? The uncertainty—and the pressure to quickly find answers—has always been one of the more nerve wracking parts of being an on-call engineer, but it doesn’t have to be that way any more.
