From production problem to proposed fix: Implement autonomous operations with Grafana AI

Oct 20, 2026 By Maurice Rochau In Grafana

You've just finished a deployment, and though your service is up, you start to notice some requests are getting slower. To address the lag, someone—or, more likely, some group of people on your team—needs to watch the dashboards, decide whether the change matters, investigate what happened, and turn the findings into a fix. At each step you're gathering context—and often explaining that context again to the next person or tool.

Build better SLOs with RUM and synthetic SLIs

Oct 20, 2026 By Datadog In Datadog

Well-designed service level objectives (SLOs) help you track the benchmarks your app needs to meet to deliver a successful user experience (UX). To track performance against these SLOs, many SRE teams are turning to real user monitoring (RUM) and synthetic monitoring for their service level indicators (SLIs), as these forms of data provide more direct measurements of UX than backend performance metrics.

Why Does My Internet Keep Disconnecting? Causes, Diagnosis & Fixes

Oct 20, 2026 By Alyssa Lamberti In Obkio

Your Internet usually keeps disconnecting because of one of five things: a weak or congested Wi-Fi signal, a failing modem, router or cable, an overloaded firewall, a device-level setting or driver, or a problem on your ISP’s line or network. To fix it, first find where the drop happens: on one device, across your LAN, or past your firewall. “The Internet keeps droppin” is one of the most common tickets IT teams get, and one of the hardest to close.
