Elastic named a Leader in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms
Elastic has been named a Leader in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Observability Platforms. The need for observability platforms continues to evolve as operations teams deal with increased complexity and exponential data growth. Emerging trends like generative AI are driving a paradigm shift in proactive root cause detection and resolution.
Beyond RAG basics: Advanced strategies for AI applications
Our recent virtual event with Cohere dove deep into the world of retrieval augmented generation (RAG), focusing on the critical considerations for building RAG applications beyond the proof-of-concept stage. Our speakers, Lily Adler, principal solutions architect at Elastic, and Maxime Voisin, senior product manager at Cohere, shared valuable insights on the challenges, solutions, and best practices in this evolving field of natural language processing (NLP).
Navigating Open Source Software: All Your Questions Answered
Open source software refers to computer programs with source code available for anyone to inspect, modify, and distribute. Unlike proprietary software, open source software is developed collaboratively by a community of developers. One of the main benefits of open source software is cost savings. Because the source code is freely available, organizations can use and customize the software without paying licensing fees, reducing costs, especially for large-scale deployments.
observIQ Expands Advanced Support for Sumo Logic in Security and Observability Data
We’re excited to announce that as part of our expanded alliance with Sumo Logic, observIQ extended its support for Sumo’s platform. This allows customers to send logs and metrics to Sumo Logic, leveraging our telemetry pipeline, BindPlane. We’ve also made it possible to automatically recommend processors in our pipeline that format data specifically as Sumo Logic expects—once Sumo Logic is a destination for BindPlane.
How the Cribl SRE Team Uses Cribl Products to Achieve Scalable Observability
This is the first of a planned series of blog posts that explain how the Cribl SRE team builds, optimizes, and operates a robust Observability suite using Cribl’s products, Cribl.Cloud operates on a single-tenant architecture, providing each customer with dedicated AWS accounts furnished with ready-to-use Cribl products. This provides our customers with strict data and workload isolation but presents some interesting and unique challenges for our Infrastructure and operations.
How to Start Contributing to Open Source with OpenTelemetry
Today, open source software is everywhere – from Linux-based servers, to Android smartphones, to the Firefox Web browser, to name just a handful of open source platforms in widespread use today. But the open source code driving these innovations doesn't write itself. It's developed by open source contributors – and you could be one of them.
Introduction to K8s Horizontal Pod Autoscaling | Monitor Autoscaling in Splunk Observability Cloud
In this video, I’m going to introduce you to Horizontal Pod Autoscaling in Kubernetes and monitoring autoscaling events in Splunk Observability Cloud. I’ll first walk through our simple application deployment definition. We will analyze the metrics of that application in Splunk Observability cloud, identifying that the application is under resource pressure. I’ll then discuss the scaling options at our disposal, and we will walk through an implementation of a Horizontal Pod Autoscaler that will automatically scale our pods according to the load they are receiving.

Dogfooding at Mezmo: How we used telemetry pipeline to reduce data volume
Like many other organizations, we at Mezmo struggle with a lot of telemetry data, and for a while our team configured our logs to be sent to a global Mezmo Log Analysis account in our SaaS so we would have a single pane of glass to view all of our logs. Our SRE team wanted to make sure that we have experience utilizing our new pipeline product. We set out some goals before we started using telemetry pipeline.
