AlOps - Laying a Strong Foundation with Full-Stack Observability

AlOps - Laying a Strong Foundation with Full-Stack Observability

Nov 19, 2025 By Puneet Ramaul In OpsMatters
It is fair to say that AIOps is much more than just a catchy tagline; in fact, it is now a fundamental aspect of every enterprise looking to manage a modern, cloud-native architecture along with a distributed system. As AIOps becomes more widely adopted and organizations start expanding, the amount of logs, metrics and traces becomes too much for role-based tracking and monitoring tools. This is the moment in which full-stack observability tools are needed, providing valuable data that observability AIOps engines rely on for their predictive, proactive, and performance issue detection.

How to Monitor RabbitMQ

Nov 18, 2025 By Alexandr Bandurchin In Uptrace
A queue quietly fills up overnight. Memory hits the configured watermark and RabbitMQ blocks all publishers. Your entire message pipeline freezes, and you discover the problem when users start complaining. This scenario repeats across thousands of production systems because teams don't monitor RabbitMQ properly. The broker exposes comprehensive metrics, but most engineers don't know which ones predict failures or how to track them.

What is Network Observability vs. Network Monitoring?

Nov 16, 2025 By Alyssa Lamberti In Obkio
Network observability may be seen as a newer term in the world of networking, but it has become critical for managing modern distributed networks. As networks grow more complex with cloud services, remote workers, and distributed applications, traditional network monitoring approaches no longer provide sufficient visibility into network health and performance.

Expanding Access, Not Risk: Using the Read-Only Role in Honeycomb Teams

Nov 14, 2025 By Jacob Newton In Honeycomb
Observability works best when everyone who needs visibility can get it without the risk of unintentional changes. Honeycomb’s role-based access control system helps teams strike that balance with a selection of Owner, Member, and Read-Only member roles. This control gives teams more flexibility in how they share access across their organization, helping you scale visibility safely without sacrificing control.

APM vs Observability: What comes next?

Nov 13, 2025 By Leon Adato In Catchpoint
Remember how I said that blog was going to be my last entry on the topic of "APM vs Observability?" Well, it turns out I had a little more to say. I'd like to spend a few moments talking about the future of APM and Observability. I think it comes down to two major initiatives: AI and Open Telemetry. (NOTE: in this section, I'm using the word "observability" to refer to the discipline of monitoring and observability as a whole, rather than any specific tool, technique, or vendor-based solution.)

Understand, diagnose, and optimize SQL queries: Introducing Grafana Cloud Database Observability

Nov 13, 2025 By Matthew Nolf In Grafana
It’s widely acknowledged that most application performance problems stem not from the application itself, but from the underlying database. Slow or inefficient database queries are often the primary cause of these issues, acting as the biggest driver of application performance incidents. If you’ve been troubleshooting slow API calls or sluggish services, chances are the root cause likely resides within your database layer.

How OpenTelemetry can enhance observability in distributed systems: Practical examples

Nov 12, 2025 By Kirubanandan RA In Site24x7
Observability has become one of the fundamental elements of performance and reliability as modern applications move toward cloud-native architectures, microservices, and multi-cloud. Traditional monitoring techniques often fall short in such dynamic, distributed environments. That’s where OpenTelemetry (OTel) , an open-source observability framework comes into picture.
