It started with a single log line taking up a massive amount of volume: 500 million emissions per hour. Pulling that thread led Emma and Steven into Slack's broader logging pipeline: 311 billion logs per day at 4.4M/sec peak, with no volume limits, no per-service attribution, and no feedback to the teams generating the noise.

Stripe shares lessons from building an incident investigation agent, from context-window blowups to why the final 5% still needs a human. In this O11yCon 2026 talk, they dig into what it takes to go from 'it works' to 'it works reliably,' including how pointing agents at like Honeycomb's speeds up on-call investigations.

In this session at O11yCon, Purvi Kanal, Jamie Danielson, and Martin Holman demoed the new Canvas. Canvas now understands OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic conventions, and can show agent invocations, LLM calls, and tool calls all in one trace view. Humans and agents can work in the same place, with skills that let each team encode their own expertise so both the agent and their colleagues can use it. Multiplayer support means you can see your teammates' cursors and share charts.

At Slack, between 100 to 200 users per day use Honeycomb for client observability, tracing, instrumentation, analysis of performance, frontend issues, investigating incidents, or just looking into production issues.

In this demo, Liz and Kale talk through a slow query that Liz couldn't get out of her head. During a conference, she set out to solve it... and ended up finding two more bugs to fix with, Honeycomb MCP, and Honeycomb Canvas.

In her talk at O11yCon 2026, Nishi Bhonsle of Salesforce talked about,, and provided some great examples of how Honeycomb has helped Salesforce issues in seconds. Here's a 4-minute highlight reel.

Honeycomb and Embrace are extending the rigorous, data-driven practice that Honeycomb pioneered for foundational to mobile and web, giving, site reliability, and platform teams a complete, correlated picture of system health. The strategic partnership makes understanding performance and reliability for every user and every screen part of the observability practice, bringing new depth and standardization to how teams measure end user impact.
