Clint Sharp explains why data is growing at a 30% CAGR while budgets stay flat. Teams are already running infrastructure at 80 to 90% capacity, and AI agents multiply query volume by ten or fifty. What got you to 2025 will not get you to 2035. You need a new approach to handle AI scale without blowing up cost.

Glenn Block explains how the new Cloudflare source and R2 destination in Cribl Stream lets you ingest WAF, DNS, and Zero Trust logs for full visibility and real time intelligence. Better security, better performance, and lower cost for modern IT and security teams.

Telemetry growth is about to hit a new level in 2026. Nick Heudecker from Cribl walks through our new predictions report and explains why observability costs are set to surge again, with more than a third of enterprises spending at least 15 % of their IT budgets on telemetry alone. He also shares how agentic AI adds new risk to the data pipeline, why most AI workloads will struggle to scale, and how platform shifts and market forces will reshape the data landscape.

Cribl Guard uses an always running AI agent to spot sensitive data as it moves through your environment and recommend the right protections in real time. In this demo, you will see how the agent samples live events, identifies patterns like credentials and credit cards, and turns them into one click fixes that keep your destinations safe. Faster detection, smarter rule recommendations, and instant mitigation. This is what modern data protection looks like.

Sensitive data sneaks into destinations more often than teams realize. In this clip, we capture live events, spot emails and login tokens slipping through, and fix it instantly with Cribl Guard. A few clicks, a commit and deploy, and Guard redacts the data in real time. No complex configs. No regex nightmares. Just fast protection that keeps your telemetry clean and your security tight.

Cribl Search gives you one lens across all your telemetry data no matter where it lives. Instead of forcing teams to move data into one system or jump between tools, you get a familiar pipe based query experience with dashboarding and alerting built in. Storage and query processing stay separate so you decide where your data lives while your users get fast, simple access in one place.

Disconnected pipelines. Unknown data sources. Costs that do not add up. Many teams struggle to answer a simple question. What data do we have and where is it going? In this clip, a Cribl customer explains how bringing all telemetry data together changed everything. With Cribl, their team can finally see what they collect, where it flows, and what it costs. That clarity unlocked smarter reduction, better routing decisions, and major optimization across security and observability workflows.

Customers asked for a simpler way to store and access telemetry data, and Cribl delivered. First came Cribl Lake. Cost effective data storage, flexible access, and identity based authorization instead of infrastructure based access rules. A simple way to retain data at rest and run slow, inexpensive analytics when needed. But the story did not end there.

Good observability starts with good data. In this clip, we hear how Cribl gives teams real control over their data pipelines so they can collect, enrich, and route telemetry from any source to the right destination. It is not just about more dashboards or another platform. It is about building an observability ecosystem that connects IT, security, and the business through cleaner data and smarter AIOps. Tool rationalization and AI driven pipelines are not future goals. They are happening right now.

In an era where telemetry data grows at a 28% compound rate while budgets remain flat, traditional IT and Security approaches are facing unprecedented pressure. Join our distinguished customer panel as they share their transformative journeys with Cribl's data engine solutions. Our panelists will discuss how Cribl's vendor-neutral portfolio has enabled them to regain control over their data infrastructure, achieving both immediate operational improvements and strategic long-term advantages.
