VictoriaMetrics Virtual Meetup Q1 2026 - VictoriaMetrics Cloud Updates

VictoriaMetrics Cloud continues to mature as a secure, reliable, and cost-efficient observability platform. With PrivateLink now available across all regions, including Frankfurt, users can operate entirely without exposure to the public internet. Blue-green cluster deployments enable seamless, zero-downtime updates, while incremental backups ensure storage efficiency by capturing only what has changed. Operational visibility is improved with clearer alert states, showing Firing and Resolved conditions upfront. Security enhancements include stronger password policies and expanded authentication safeguards.

Securing the World's Biggest Machine: Critical Infrastructure, AI, and the Ethics of Innovation

What happens when decades of critical infrastructure experience meet today’s rapidly evolving AI landscape? In this episode, host Bob Slevin sits down with Ernie Hayden, award-winning author, former Navy nuclear officer, ethical hacker, and founder of 443 Consulting, for a deep dive into what it truly takes to secure modern, interconnected systems.

Harness Cursor Plugin Demo: AI for Software Delivery from Your IDE

Stop context-switching between your IDE and your CI/CD dashboards. In this video, we demonstrate the new Harness Cursor Plugin, a native integration that brings the full power of the Harness AI Software Delivery Platform directly into Cursor. Using the Cursor Agent window and the new Harness Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, you can now manage your entire software delivery lifecycle through natural language. From triggering pipelines to governing deployments, this plugin ensures you stay in your flow while maintaining enterprise-grade security and control.

Meet AURA: The Open-Source Agent Harness for Production AI : Autonomous Incident Response Demo

Watch AURA autonomously respond to a production incident in real time—from building its reasoning context and querying PagerDuty and ClickHouse, to triggering a human-in-the-loop approval with the on-call SRE, to removing the stuck pod and validating remediation. Every behavior is defined in a simple config. AURA is Mezmo's AI-powered incident response agent built for platform engineers and SREs managing high-volume telemetry pipelines.

See how Mezmo's AI Assistant instantly pinpoints root causes

This video shows how Mezmo's AI Assistant turns noisy telemetry into clear answers when errors spike. By preprocessing data and surfacing only the most relevant patterns, Mezmo quickly identifies issues like database connection failures or resource shortages and delivers actionable recommendations. Watch how AI-powered root cause analysis helps teams troubleshoot faster and with confidence. Mezmo's AI Assistant is built for platform engineers and SREs who need fast, reliable root cause analysis across high-volume telemetry pipelines — without manually sifting through noise.

How Mezmo Uses Active Telemetry for Faster AI Root Cause Analysis

AI-powered root cause analysis only works when the data going into the model is clean, relevant, and structured. In this demo, we show how Mezmo's Active Telemetry approach helps engineers and SREs move from noisy application errors to immediate clarity. Using a restaurant ordering application running in Kubernetes, we trigger a database connection pool exhaustion issue and walk through two ways to investigate it with Mezmo.

LiveTail: Real-Time Visibility for Active Telemetry

See how Mezmo LiveTail helps teams move from passive log search to active, real-time investigation. In this demo, you'll watch live telemetry stream across services and environments, identify emerging issues as they happen, and use real-time context to troubleshoot faster before signals are delayed, buried, or lost in the noise. LiveTail is part of Mezmo's Active Telemetry platform — built for platform engineers and SREs who need immediate visibility into what's happening across their stack right now, not after the fact.
