Coralogix is proud to announce a new phase in its partnership with AWS through a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) focused on bringing AI-powered observability and security to the enterprise. At the heart of this collaboration is Amazon Bedrock, AWS’s managed service for foundation models.

London, 8 July 2025: Global API downtime increased by 60% in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024, shows new data from web service monitoring provider Uptrends, part of ITRS’ comprehensive observability platform. The State of API Reliability 2025 report — based on over 2 billion API monitoring checks across 20 industries in Q1 2024 and Q1 2025 — reveals a year-on-year drop in average API uptime from 99.66% to 99.46%, representing a decline of 0.2%.

When Checkly launched, it was the first of its kind, enabling developers to monitor complex workflows easier than ever using the automation tooling (Playwright, Terraform, etc) they already knew and loved. We’ve helped detect and resolve issues for 1000s of companies—ranging from monitoring crucial log-ins, to purchasing products, to setting up client instances for millions of monthly users But what about the simpler stuff?

In cybersecurity, defense-in-depth is a fundamental principle – you never rely on a single security measure to protect your systems. The same philosophy applies to application monitoring. No single monitoring approach, no matter how sophisticated, can capture every possible failure mode of your application. This is why layered monitoring isn't just a best practice – it's essential risk mitigation.

As modern infrastructure grows more dynamic and distributed, collecting logs alongside metrics becomes a critical part of any observability strategy. To make this easy and powerful, MetricFire now supports a direct logging pipeline using Grafana Loki. This allows you to forward system logs from your servers to Hosted Graphite's Loki backend and visualize them in your Hosted Grafana dashboards with full control over queries, filtering, and alerting.

I'm pleased to share that we've can now notify you via Google Chat. Here's what that looks like: Our Google Chat notifications include: You can read more on how to set up Google Chat notifications in our docs. Of course, we also offer numerous other channels to notify you when something is wrong with your site. I'm pleased to share that we've can now notify you via Google Chat.

Apache Kafka has become the go-to platform for organizations handling high-throughput, real-time data streaming. Its ability to manage massive data volumes while ensuring reliability is second to none. However, as businesses grow and demand for data increases, scaling Kafka isn’t always a walk in the park. It often comes with its own set of challenges that can throw even the most seasoned teams for a loop.

With grafana/otel-lgtm, observability is just one Docker command away. Over the past year, grafana/otel-lgtm has simplified observability setups, helping developers get a complete OpenTelemetry stack running in under five seconds. With integrations for metrics, logs, traces, and now profiles via Grafana Pyroscope, it has become a go-to solution for demos, development, and testing, as evidenced by its growing community (1k stars on GitHub and growing!) and notable adopters.

Sometimes the biggest transformations begin with what sounds like the worst possible news. One day, this Fortune 500 technology company’s observability platform was running smoothly. The next, they learned their critical monitoring solution would be discontinued as part of a corporate buyout. For a leading global IT vendor in data infrastructure serving customers across storage, cloud, and managed services, this was a potential catastrophe.

Writing code is easier than ever. We want to make deleting code just as easy – introducing Reaper for iOS and Android. Reaper was an Emerge Tools product that helped companies like Duolingo delete 1% of their iOS codebase. And just like with Emerge Tools’ Launch Booster, we’re making Reaper open-source for anyone to use. In this post, we’ll explain what Reaper is, why you should care about dead code, and how Reaper works on both platforms.
