The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
The latest News and Information on Observabilty for complex systems and related technologies.
kubectl logs Command Reference and Documentation
The kubectl logs command retrieves container logs from Kubernetes pods. It supports real-time log streaming with -f, time-based filtering with --since, viewing previous container instances with --previous, and accessing logs from specific containers in multi-container pods using -c.
Observability in the AI age: Datadog's approach
Ten years ago, Datadog was a single-product company focused on breaking down the silos between dev and ops. As the shift towards the cloud accelerated and organizations transitioned to the new DevOps model, we set out to develop an observability platform that would enable these teams to safely scale faster and answer the essential questions about their services: are they available, secure, compliant, performant, and cost-efficient?
#AI Powered Data Protection Inside Cribl Guard
Cribl Guard uses an always running AI agent to spot sensitive data as it moves through your environment and recommend the right protections in real time. In this demo, you will see how the agent samples live events, identifies patterns like credentials and credit cards, and turns them into one click fixes that keep your destinations safe. Faster detection, smarter rule recommendations, and instant mitigation. This is what modern data protection looks like.
Our latest updates across the VictoriaMetrics Observability ecosystem
We’re excited to announce a set of updates across the entire VictoriaMetrics open source products suite — including VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaLogs, VictoriaTraces, the VictoriaMetrics Kubernetes Operator. These improvements bring better performance, stronger security, enhanced metadata visibility, and a smoother experience when running observability at scale.
Honeycomb Frontend Observability - See Everything
Chapters: In this video we take a tour through Honeycomb's Frontend Observability offerings for Web and Mobile. We see how the launchpads can help spot performance errors, how errors that occur in the frontend can be traced all the way to their cause in other backend services easily with the error investigations feature, and how easy it is to find differences between traces across various devices.
Design as Infrastructure
SaaS products that are built for engineers power critical workflows, yet their designs are often afterthoughts. SaaS products often assume that technical audiences will figure out their way through a complex experience, or just forgive them for the paper cuts on the way. A foundational design system can be perceived as a layer of polish rather than an infrastructure investment, especially in the early stages of a startup.
Why AI Will Push #Telemetry Budgets to the Breaking Point in 2026
Telemetry growth is about to hit a new level in 2026. Nick Heudecker from Cribl walks through our new predictions report and explains why observability costs are set to surge again, with more than a third of enterprises spending at least 15 % of their IT budgets on telemetry alone. He also shares how agentic AI adds new risk to the data pipeline, why most AI workloads will struggle to scale, and how platform shifts and market forces will reshape the data landscape.
Stop Leaking PII in Your #Telemetry with Cribl Guard
Sensitive data sneaks into destinations more often than teams realize. In this clip, we capture live events, spot emails and login tokens slipping through, and fix it instantly with Cribl Guard. A few clicks, a commit and deploy, and Guard redacts the data in real time. No complex configs. No regex nightmares. Just fast protection that keeps your telemetry clean and your security tight.
Pastries with SREs: Holding onto extra observability data and desserts
In this episode of Pastries with SREs, we dig into why you should keep all of your observability data, even if you don’t need it quite yet. We explore: With enriched logs and flexible, cost-effective storage, you can stop worrying about what you might need later and start answering questions with confidence, no matter when they arise.
