Links: Description: Get started with instrumenting Java applications with Grafana Cloud to observe them, detect anomalies, and find root causes. In this video, Grafana Developer Advocate Leandro Melendez outlines how to quickly get started with Application Observability for Java based on these three easy steps: Download the Grafana instrumentation agent Instrument an application and send telemetry data to the Grafana Cloud OTLP Endpoint Observe the service in Application Observability.

Want to add your data sources to Grafana but have no idea where to start? Join Senior Developer Advocate, Lisa Jung to learn how!

In this demo, we walk through the capabilities in Grafana Beyla to integrate with Kubernetes workloads: service selectors and decoration of traces and metrics with Kubernetes metadata.

Corneile will share tips on getting started, and why Grafana and Prometheus are the go-to approaches for democratizing data. What is your go-to approach for democratizing data?

Ryan Perry, co-founder of Grafana Pyroscope, talks to us about how to do continuous profiling right. Ryan is also an Engineering Director at Grafana Labs, and he discusses the main concerns in continuous profiling and how to avoid those pitfalls. Pyroscope is an open-source project for aggregating continuous profiling data about your system's resources. He is joined by Developer Advocates Nicole van der Hoeven and Paul Balogh.

In 2014, Grafana Labs (formerly known as Raintank) was founded with one mission in mind: To build a sustainable business around the popular open source Grafana project and use the revenue from our commercial offerings to re-invest in the technology.

Among many ways to deploy Grafana, using Grafana hosted on Grafana Cloud is the easiest way to get started. Join Senior Developer Advocate, Lisa Jung to learn how to set up a new Grafana Cloud Account!

Principal Staff Engineer Nikola Grčevski demonstrates how to deploy Grafana Beyla on Kubernetes as a sidecar container. Grafana Beyla is an eBPF auto-instrumentation tool for application observability: you just have to tell it what to listen to, give it permissions, and deploy it-- and you can see metrics and logs from that component or service without having to do any manual instrumentation.

Nikola Grcevski, Principal Software Engineer at Grafana Labs, gives us an introduction to eBPF with Grafana Beyla. We discuss what is eBPF, how you can use it to auto-instrument applications, and how to get started with Beyla. eBPF observability is all the rage because we all want automagical instrumentation-- but does it live up to that promise? Nikola's here to tell us what eBPF can and can't do, and where he'd like to take Beyla next.
