When latency creeps into your app, metrics tell you that performance regressed, but logs tell you why. PostgreSQL’s slow-query logging gives you the exact statement, duration, user, and database which is perfect for hunting down missing indexes, inefficient filters, or N+1 patterns.

If you’re running Caddy Webserver on Ubuntu, Graylog now has a new way to make your access logs more actionable without tedious parsing or manual setup. The new Caddy Webserver Content Pack, available in Illuminate 6.4 and a Graylog Enterprise or Graylog Security license, delivers ready-to-use parsing rules, streams, and dashboards so you can quickly turn raw logs into structured, searchable insights.

In today’s high-velocity digital ecosystem, visibility isn’t enough. SREs and engineering leaders need real-time insights, actionable signals, and automated workflows to operate at scale. As systems grow more distributed and cloud-native, the demand for intelligent observability and security has never been higher. Extensions are solutions to get instant observability with prepackaged parsing rules, alerts,dashboards and more.

From manual monitoring to proactive optimization, learn how Tipalti used AutoOps to save 10% annual costs. For a global payables automation leader like Tipalti, where financial transactions are the lifeblood of the business, infrastructure performance isn't just a technical goal; it's a core business requirement. Managing a complex ecosystem of databases, including Postgres, SQL Server, MongoDB, Kafka, and Elasticsearch, with a lean team of four engineers demands efficiency and powerful tooling.

When application performance monitoring detects a spike in latency or error rates, the immediate challenge is determining the underlying cause. APM logs address this by correlating performance metrics with the specific log events that occurred at the same time. Instead of switching between monitoring dashboards and manually searching through log files, APM log correlation consolidates both views.
