Enhancements to Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline Deliver Greater Visibility, Smarter Control, and Lower Costs

In July, we introduced powerful new Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline features that helped teams take control of their observability data with safe sampling, flexible rehydration, and a visual pipeline builder. Since then, we’ve built on that foundation. Today, we’re introducing the latest enhancements to Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline, which give teams deeper visibility into pipeline health, more efficient access to archived telemetry data, and reduced operational complexity.

Introducing Honeycomb Private Cloud

More and more enterprises are shifting toward private cloud and hybrid deployments for control, data residency, and security. At the same time, observability is no longer a “nice to have” tool. It's mission-critical for teams driving rapid change across cloud-native, multi-service architectures. Leaders are realizing they need deep visibility and rapid debugging everywhere their systems run.

Node.js Performance Monitoring Guide

Node.js applications power millions of APIs, microservices, and real-time systems. But without proper monitoring, performance issues, memory leaks, and errors can go undetected until they impact users. This guide explains how to monitor Node.js applications in production, what metrics to track, and which tools deliver the best results.

Why Gaining Control of Your #telemetry Data Is a Game Changer

Disconnected pipelines. Unknown data sources. Costs that do not add up. Many teams struggle to answer a simple question. What data do we have and where is it going? In this clip, a Cribl customer explains how bringing all telemetry data together changed everything. With Cribl, their team can finally see what they collect, where it flows, and what it costs. That clarity unlocked smarter reduction, better routing decisions, and major optimization across security and observability workflows.

AlOps - Laying a Strong Foundation with Full-Stack Observability

It is fair to say that AIOps is much more than just a catchy tagline; in fact, it is now a fundamental aspect of every enterprise looking to manage a modern, cloud-native architecture along with a distributed system. As AIOps becomes more widely adopted and organizations start expanding, the amount of logs, metrics and traces becomes too much for role-based tracking and monitoring tools. This is the moment in which full-stack observability tools are needed, providing valuable data that observability AIOps engines rely on for their predictive, proactive, and performance issue detection.

#observability needs more than tools. It needs the right data.

Good observability starts with good data. In this clip, we hear how Cribl gives teams real control over their data pipelines so they can collect, enrich, and route telemetry from any source to the right destination. It is not just about more dashboards or another platform. It is about building an observability ecosystem that connects IT, security, and the business through cleaner data and smarter AIOps. Tool rationalization and AI driven pipelines are not future goals. They are happening right now.

How to Monitor RabbitMQ

A queue quietly fills up overnight. Memory hits the configured watermark and RabbitMQ blocks all publishers. Your entire message pipeline freezes, and you discover the problem when users start complaining. This scenario repeats across thousands of production systems because teams don't monitor RabbitMQ properly. The broker exposes comprehensive metrics, but most engineers don't know which ones predict failures or how to track them.
