Today we're launching the inaugural course of the new Rancher Academy: Certified Rancher Operator: Level 1. In this course you'll learn and demonstrate the skills to install Rancher, install downstream Kubernetes clusters, and interact with them from the perspective of a user and an operator. The course ends with a final assessment, and when you pass, you'll receive a certificate from Rancher Labs that will help you advance your career.

The official opening of GrarfanaCONline, the 2020 Grafana user conference. This keynote from the leadership of Grafana Labs focuses on where we’ve been and where we’re going, including a preview of the Grafana 7.0 release.

It’s Grafana 7.0 release day, and Grafana creator Torkel Ödegaard will talk about everything you need to know about the new features and enhancements.

Do you ever feel like your systems lack unnecessary complexity and overengineering? This is the talk for you. Join me as I detail the creation of a Raspberry Pi-based desktop Kubernetes cluster in an attempt to overcomplicate the already complex world of stateless web application deployment. We’ll walk through building an observability platform using open source tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and Jaeger to keep a close watch on our tiny fragile microservices and then break them intentionally for our own amusement.

We have been utilizing Grafana at Whiting Oil and Gas for approximately three years. In that time, we have greatly impacted the way our field assets are managed through dashboards and alerting. Instead of servers and network data, Whiting is using the application to monitor oil and gas wells in remote locations. Historically, the energy industry has deployed very expensive tools to monitor assets and visualize data.

In this virtual meetup, we will go over step-by-step how we have replaced our music platform's search capabilities with Elasticsearch achieving better and personalized results based on user's previous music taste.

Grafana 7.0 is coming in May! In the next days and weeks before it launches during GrafanaCONline, we'll be posting sneak previews of new features.

Learn how you can monitor the big data technology, the availability and performance of your Hadoop clusters and maintain optimal performance.
