Over 30% of your production logs might be useless DEBUG logs! This "bad telemetry" is expensive noise. The KubeCon talk I attended introduced a project called the Instrumentation Score which helps you find and fix bad telemetry.

How do you get developers to instrument their code? You stop asking! Instead, pitch the value of observability by building them dashboards and implementing the no-code change solutions first, demonstrating the value of instrumentation.

Check out the new exciting features added to Graylog V7.0 Seth Goldhammer VP of Product and Ed Metcalf VP of Product Marketing walk you through the new features!

Graylog V7.0 supports integration with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which allows large language models (LLMs) to access and interact with Graylog data and workflows in real time. Graylog exposes an MCP-compatible endpoint for LLM clients, such as Claude and LM Studio. MCP integration allows Graylog users to interact with their data through LLMs. With MCP, an LLM can connect directly to Graylog as a remote tool interface, performing queries, retrieving system information, and assisting with common administrative or investigative tasks. This capability may make it possible to.

Without strong visibility and governance, local LLMs risk replicating the fragmented, unsupervised sprawl once seen in shadow IT, complicating security postures and making it difficult for organizations to ensure proper oversight and compliance as these powerful AI tools become embedded in daily workflows. To address this challenge, The Splunk Threat Research Team has released the Splunk Technology Add-on for Ollama that provides comprehensive monitoring and observability capabilities specifically designed for local LLM deployments.

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.
